Safety is likely one of your top priorities when shopping for a family SUV. The 2025 GMC Acadia is engineered to protect your passengers. With impressive crash-test performance, the Acadia earned the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's Top Safety Pick award. This midsize SUV offers robust impact protection and includes a host of standard features that increase peace of mind.
Strict IIHS Criteria
To be named an IIHS Top Safety Pick, a vehicle must receive a good rating in several critical crash categories:
- Driver-side small overlap front
- Passenger-side small overlap front
- Moderate overlap front
- Original side, roof strength
- Head restraint tests
A Top Safety Pick vehicle must also earn a Good or Acceptable score in the pedestrian front crash prevention test. At least one trim level must also provide headlights rated Acceptable or Good.
What Makes the GMC Acadia Such a Safe Family Hauler?
The Acadia's structure uses an ultra-high-strength steel safety cage to help protect occupants in a collision. Strategically placed crumple zones further manage and dissipate crash forces. From quick trips around town to longer family drives, the SUV is designed to protect passengers from significant impacts.
An expanded package of advanced driver-assistance systems is standard on every trim. Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking helps detect people and cyclists at 5 to 50 mph speeds. Blind Zone Steering Assist makes lane changes less stressful. Other modern safety tech includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist, Following Distance Indicator, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and IntelliBeam auto high beams.
