Is the 2024 GMC Acadia AT4 a BETTER midsize SUV than a Honda Pilot Trailsport?

FIRST DRIVE: The Acadia is all new and there is an AT4 grade from GMC. On the outside you will discover 18in wheels, off-road tires, recovery hooks and skid plates. On the inside you will be greeted by a 15in infotainment screen and digital gauge cluster. Under the hood os a 2.5L turbocharged inline-4 that produces 328HP and is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2024 GMC Acadia AT4 a BETTER midsize SUV than a Honda Pilot Trailsport?

I don't know why, but not everyone appreciates the badging being used the way you do, Joe. Guess that's why you're the best. Keep up the great reviews.

I love badging. When I had my Colorado ZR2 that I fully customized, I placed custom related badging in specific areas. Within taste and reason of course.

Great question raiti. I think it’s a great one too, while the powertrain of the pilot seems to be more reliable and durable, the interior of the gmc seems like it has the edge on the pilot. Although the pilots 2nd row has that bench seating with removable middle seat. Tough call.

@hellomoto1 Күн бұрын

Then it probably would have to cut something else out of the car to keep it at that price point. This Acadia has quite a bit of features that the Honda Pilot Trailsport does not. Including, ventilated front seats, heated second row, HUD, etc.

I own a GMC Acadia. When we were in Vegas I rented a Honda Pilot for four days. We took it to Death Valley and drove it around quite a bit. The Acadia is superior in every way, especially with the electronics. The way GMC’s lane assist and warnings work, it’s just so much better. My wife even commented how this rental was a down grade.

It makes me wonder if car companies are just biding their time now for our generation to die out. Gen z and alpha just starting out with driving may not remember (or expect) larger displacement NA engines...😢I am gen x and can appreciate a turbo or 2, but only for pure performance boosts, not for allowing a large "offroad" vehicle to function on only a few cylinders. Too much stress on a tiny engine. Oh well. That NA ship has already sailed.

It's a shame they had to go ruining it with a turbo 4 cyl that gets just as ishtty gas milage as the Pilot and 4Runner does. I have a mazda with a turbo 4 and it gets ishtty gas mileage too. What's the point of sacrificing reliability, getting a really annoying turbo lag and then still getting the same ishtty fuel economy? And does it have a dipstick? Sadly you should cover whether vehicles have distiks now They are becoming a thing of the past.
