Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Hyundai Palisade than in the GMC Acadia, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Hyundai Palisade will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the GMC Acadia.

Convenience
Due to the larger tank size and better fuel economy of the GMC Acadia, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Hyundai Palisade.

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). Whether you pick the GMC Acadia or the Hyundai Palisade, it's going to cost you about the same.

Dimensions
Since the GMC Acadia is much slimmer than the Hyundai Palisade, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the GMC Acadia takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Hyundai Palisade.

Handling
The GMC Acadia has the same turning radius as the Hyundai Palisade, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the GMC Acadia has a lot less horsepower than the Hyundai Palisade.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the GMC Acadia does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Hyundai Palisade.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the GMC Acadia and the Hyundai Palisade. The GMC Acadia has less cargo space than the Hyundai Palisade, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
