The 2026 GMC Acadia returns to its larger roots as a spacious three-row SUV that actually fits adults comfortably in the back seats. After the recent redesign, this mid-size crossover offers impressive passenger space and decent cargo capacity even with all three rows in use. The Acadia’s sole engine is a turbocharged four-cylinder producing a healthy 328 horsepower. Inside and out, the Acadia boasts attractive styling that gives it a premium appearance. Our NY-oriented 2026 GMC Acadia lease package brings GMC’s distinctive design language to New York families needing serious space in a mid-size SUV.
Engine and Transmission
The 2026 GMC Acadia features a single 328-horsepower turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine producing 326 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive comes standard, with all-wheel drive optional (standard on AT4 model). The chassis delivers confident cornering for its size, while the AT4 adds enhanced all-wheel drive, extra ground clearance, and off-road capability. The estimated 0-60 time sits between 6.5-6.7 seconds. The Acadia boasts a 5,000-pound towing capacity across all trims.
Fuel Economy
The 2026 GMC Acadia, when equipped with the 2.5-liter Turbo engine and all-wheel drive (AWD), achieves a fuel economy of 19 mpg in the city, 24 mpg on the highway, and a combined 21 mpg. The front-wheel-drive (FWD) version with the same engine gets 20 mpg city, 27 mpg highway, and 23 mpg combined.
Interior and Tech
Like other GMC lease deals, the 2026 GMC Acadia’s interior combines contemporary design with practical functionality.
