The 2025 GMC Acadia edges out the Toyota Highlander in several key areas. The Acadia's 2.5L turbo engine delivers 328 hp and 326 lb-ft of torque, compared to the Highlander's 2.4L turbo with 265 hp. For infotainment, the Acadia offers a larger 15" screen with an 11" digital driver display versus the Highlander's 12.3" touchscreen and 7" cluster. The Acadia also features a premium Bose 16-speaker audio system and available Super Cruise hands-free driving technology, which the Highlander doesn't offer. Both seat up to 7 passengers (Acadia up to 8), but the Acadia's AT4 trim adds exclusive off-road capabilities with tuned suspension and all-terrain tires. If performance, tech, and capability matter to you, the Acadia is a standout choice. Visit Markquart Motors or call (715) 833-0444 to explore the Acadia today.
