About This 2016 GMC Acadia SLE-1

The first-generation GMC Acadia — which ran through the 2016 model year — was one of the most popular large crossover SUVs on the market, and for good reason. It offered genuine three-row capacity, a comfortable ride, and a well-rounded feature set at a competitive price. At 109,760 miles, this vehicle is well into its second act but still has plenty of life left. With proper maintenance, the 3.6-liter V6 in these Acadias routinely reaches 200,000 miles and beyond. If you've been shopping used SUVs in South Gate or the surrounding area, this is a vehicle worth taking seriously.

2016 GMC Acadia Performance and Engine

Under the hood, this Acadia is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 engine paired with a smooth-shifting 6-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain produces around 288 horsepower and delivers confident, responsive acceleration whether you're merging onto the 710 Freeway or loading up the family for a weekend trip. Front-wheel drive keeps things efficient and predictable in Southern California's mostly mild driving conditions. The 6-speed automatic is well-tuned for this platform and contributes to a comfortable, unhurried driving experience that SUV buyers appreciate.
