Come see both at Phillips Buick GMC Truck in Fruitland Park, FL. We'll set up back-to-back test drives so you can feel the difference for yourself.
Are the Enclave and Acadia Basically the Same SUV?
They share a lot on paper. Both 2027 models run a turbocharged 2.5L four-cylinder engine rated at 328 horsepower. GMC lists the Acadia at 326 lb.-ft. of torque with an 8-speed automatic. Both come with a standard Trailering Package and up to 5,000 lbs. of max towing, and you can get either one with FWD or AWD.
The tech overlap is big too. Each SUV has Google built-in with Google Gemini, and each one has available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance on compatible roads.
So the real choice comes down to personality. Buick built the Enclave around a quiet, upscale cabin. GMC gave the Acadia a tougher look, an off-road-ready AT4 trim, and the option to seat up to 8.
What Is the Enclave vs Acadia Size Difference?
The Enclave vs Acadia size gap is small. The Enclave measures about 204.5" long, 78.8" wide without mirrors, and 69.9" tall, with seats for up to 7. The Acadia Elevation comes in at 203.96" long, 79.56" wide, and 70.97" tall, with seats for up to 8.
That makes the Enclave about half an inch longer and the Acadia a touch wider and taller. The AT4 is the tallest of the bunch at 72.03", with a width of 79.95" and a lifted ride height. Buick also lists the Enclave's wheelbase at 120.9" and its ground clearance at about 7.5".
For cargo, GMC lists the Acadia at 23.00 cu. ft. behind the third row, 57.30 cu. ft. behind the second row, and 97.51 cu. ft. of max cargo volume behind the first row. The Enclave gives you one-touch flat-folding second-row seats, a 60/40 split-folding third row, and ample legroom in all three rows. Bring your stroller, sports bags, or cooler to our lot and test the space in person.
