Comparison Review

Comfort
The GMC Acadia offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Jeep Wrangler, with comparable head- and legroom. The Jeep Wrangler 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 Jeep Wrangler.

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). When looking only at MSRP, the GMC Acadia will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Jeep Wrangler.

Dimensions
The GMC Acadia is a little wider than the Jeep Wrangler, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the GMC Acadia, which is slightly longer than the Jeep Wrangler.

Handling
The GMC Acadia has the same turning radius as the Jeep Wrangler, 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 Jeep Wrangler.

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 Jeep Wrangler.

Utility
The GMC Acadia offers greater seating capacity than the Jeep Wrangler, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around. The GMC Acadia has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Jeep Wrangler.
