2021 Acadia Trims & Features

For 2021, You can choose from five trims: SL, SLE, SLT, AT4 and Denali. Along with the trims, GMC rolls out three engine choices to equip the Acadia. Most of the trim levels offer front-wheel drive as the standard, but you can upgrade to all-wheel drive as optional. The AT4 model, enhanced for off-road capabilities, comes with all-wheel drive as the standard and strengthens traction.

If you select the SL or the SLE trim, you can fit up to seven passengers with a second-row bench seat. The SLE adds soft and relaxing second-row captain's chairs, but the new addition reduces your passenger capacity to six. The SL trim offers standard features such as keyless ignition and entry, tri-zone auto climate control, wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto integration, and a six-speaker audio system. As you move up in trims, you'll find ample features and amenities for overall comfort and convenience. While the midrange SLT features a hands-free liftgate, auto-dimming rearview mirror and an upgraded 8-speaker Bose audio system, the AT4 offers more off-roading capabilities with all-terrain tires, hill descent control and hill hold assist. Atop the trims is the Denali. This trim offers standard features such as a head-up display, wireless charging pad, ventilated front seats, and driver-seat memory functions.
