GMC Acadia










Official shots of the GMC Acadia. Certainly the interior is way ahead of previous GM vehicles, so that's a plus. However, the overall exterior design doesn't stir my loins. What magnifies this is the fact that GM has two other models (Outlook and Enclave) that don't look that much different. Out of the three, I think that the Buick will take the prize. I'll throwing in a picture of the Saturn Outlook for comparison's sake. There have been no official photos of the production Enclave yet, although it is sure to be a dead ringer for the concept shown in Detroit.

Does this cause an issue for you? The passenger has a grab handle on the door panel, but the driver does not. I can see the reasoning: the driver has a lot of controls located on the door. I'm a big one for symmetry, so it does look a bit odd to me. Land Rover tried the non-symmetrical stunt with the LR3 engine vent, placing it only on one side. I've noticed that they didn't repeat that with the RR Sport, or next generation Freelander (LR2).
