The 2011 GMC Acadia for buyers

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2011 GMC Acadia for sale by us right now. This page sets out the 2011 GMC Acadia for buyers, in plain words.

Recalls and complaints

NHTSA has 269 owner complaints on file, mostly about steering, engine and electrical system. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

The numbers in plain words

Its 3.6L 6-cylinder drives through a 6-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Plan on about 37 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 12.3 L/100 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $190.70 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles.

When the Acadia makes sense

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

What to expect from the Acadia

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Try before you buy

If the Acadia is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

Choosing the right one

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.07 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $190.70 at our price setting.
