When it comes to interior space and high-tech convenience features, the 2017 GMC Terrain and 2017 GMC Acadia both come with exciting options, even at the base trim. Inside, drivers will find a bright and colorful first-row LCD screen that works with the Bluetooth compatibility and six-speaker audio system. The Acadia's overall design is more luxurious than the Terrain, giving it the higher starting price. The Terrain's more relaxed and affordable style makes it a great choice for families and adventurous drivers who don't want to break the bank. Be sure to ask our sales team about the available safety features for both the Terrain and the Acadia.
