The Yukon looks and drivers more like a truck than the 2017 Acadia, which is considered a midsize SUV. However, when it comes to having space for the whole family, the 2017 Acadia's available 3rd row of seating offers more versatility than ever before! With a lower starting price and the more impressive fuel economy rating, the 2017 Acadia is a great option for smaller families and those who don't plan on towing a heavy trailer.
However, when it comes to towing capability, the 2017 Yukon certainly has more to offer. The 2017 GMC Acadia has a maximum towing capacity of up to 4,000 lbs when properly equipped, while the 2017 Yukon can tow up to 8,400 lbs when properly equipped. This means that packing up for a weekend adventure in the Yukon is easier and more versatile.
