You can buy a BMW X5 or spend the same amount on a flagship GMC Acadia

GMC Acadia Denali Ultimate: Luxury at a High Price

GMC has introduced a new top trim for its Acadia SUV — the Denali Ultimate. Its starting price is $62,900 excluding additional costs, and with delivery, the vehicle will cost buyers $64,795. This makes it the most expensive version of the Acadia in the brand’s history.

For this money, buyers get a number of premium options: leather seats with a new finish, the Super Cruise system, a heads-up display, a powerful audio system, and large alloy wheels. However, the technical underpinnings remain unchanged — the same 2.5-liter engine as in the base models.

Competitors in the Premium Segment

For a similar amount, one could consider European alternatives such as the BMW X5 or Lexus RX. Although they offer less space than the Acadia, their brand equity is significantly higher. The market also features Japanese and American competitors with three-row versions that could pose serious competition for similar money.

Despite the rich equipment, GMC will have to make an effort to convince buyers to choose the Acadia Denali Ultimate over already established premium models. Especially considering the absence of discounts on the new vehicle.
