Luxurious Design

If you’re ready to elevate your comfort and style, you’ll want to see the 2024 GMC Acadia specs in action at our GMC dealership in Florida. This luxury SUV is outfitted with a sleek, yet muscular profile with standard LED headlamps, 18-inch wheels and a smart sense liftgate with pre-sense recognition. Premium configurations at Gainesville GMC are outfitted with a panoramic, pillar-to-pillar sunroof, 22-inch wheels and LED fog lamps.

When comparing the 2024 GMC Acadia vs Toyota Highlander, you’ll see that the Toyota model only offers 18-inch and 20-inch wheels but does come standard with LED projector headlights. Only premium trims of the 2024 Toyota Highlander are equipped with a hands-free power liftgate and this SUV does not have a pillar-to-pillar sunroof.

Both the 2024 GMC Acadia and Toyota Highlander offer seating for seven with soft cloth seats and available leather seats. The 2024 GMC Acadia interior comes standard with heated front seats and an 8-way power driver seat with lumbar support while premium trims are available with a heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats and heated second-row seats. You can also customize the 2024 GMC Acadia with second-row flat-folding captain’s chairs. Ambient lighting is available, too.

The 2024 Toyota Highlander interior only offers heated and ventilated front seats with top-of-the-line configurations and you’ll need to upgrade for a 10-way driver front seat with power lumbar support.

Turbocharged Engine Power

This bold engine comes standard with an 8 speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, but you can upgrade for all-wheel drive and a traction select system with terrain mode.

When comparing the 2024 GMC Acadia vs Toyota Highlander, you’ll find that the Highlander for this model year does offer both gas-powered and hybrid powertrain options, but the horsepower doesn’t measure up to the 2024 GMC Acadia specs. The 2024 Toyota Highlander is equipped with a 265-horsepower turbocharged 4-cylinder gas-powered engine and is available with a hybrid powertrain that has a combined net horsepower of 243.
