Pros Refined ride quality makes it comfortable in any driving situation Quick acceleration from the optional V6 engine Simple cabin layout means everything is usable at a glance Modern onboard technology keeps you connected
Cons Cabin isn't particularly luxurious, even in the priciest trim levels Some rival crossovers have more cargo and third-row space Lackluster base engine
The Acadia receives a facelift for 2020, with a new grille, newly standard LED headlights, and revisions to the rear end. There's also a new turbocharged 2.0-liter engine—standard on the SLT and Denali trims—which GMC estimates will have 230 horsepower when it goes on sale late in the model year. The trim lineup has expanded to include an AT4 model, which brings off-road-inspired design (including 17-inch wheels fitted with all-terrain tires) to the Acadia lineup.
Pros Attractive design, improved infotainment, plenty of in-cabin storage space.
Cons Quality doesn't match price, cramped third row, unimpressive fuel economy.
The 2020 GMC Acadia’s expanded lineup and new styling look worth the wait.
Pros Good looks Infotainment upgrades worthwhile Intriguing new turbo-4
Cons Active safety tech should be standard A little narrow inside Push-button shifters not our favorite
Remains one of the best all-round, reasonably priced EVs you can buy today.
Pros Excellent, efficient powertrain. 64kWh version provides big range
Cons Should be more spacious. Material quality could be better
Pros Great electric range Good fun to drive Generous equipment
Cons Other EVs have nicer interiors Boot is a bit small Quickest charging difficult to achieve
The 64kWh version of the Hyundai Kona Electric has a fantastic real-world range between charges, plus it’s quick and well-equipped. However, excellent rivals including the Kia e-Niro and Volkswagen ID.3 are better all-rounders thanks to their superior ride comfort and more practical interiors.
Pros Near 260-mile range in real-world conditions (64kWh battery) Strong acceleration Even the base model is well equipped
Cons Choppy ride Not as roomy as rivals Interior could be classier
