The secret to this carved-from-granite feeling is in its design. Unlike most big SUVs that have flimsy bodies mounted on a thick truck-like frame, the Acadia is built with unibody construction just like a compact car. It feels like it’s built in one piece because it is.
The concept isn’t new, but it’s rare on this scale. It’s more common on vehicles like the Ford Escape or Nissan Murano. It’s especially rare for GMC, a company that advertises its vehicles are tough, capable and “professional grade” — not necessarily refined.
