Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Chevrolet Traverse than in the GMC Acadia. The Chevrolet Traverse will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the GMC Acadia.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Chevrolet Traverse is somewhat more expensive than the GMC Acadia.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Traverse is much wider than the GMC Acadia, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the Chevrolet Traverse, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the GMC Acadia.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Chevrolet Traverse greatly out-muscles the GMC Acadia.

Powertrain
The Chevrolet Traverse has much lower torque than the GMC Acadia, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Traverse and the GMC Acadia. The Chevrolet Traverse has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the GMC Acadia.
