You insist on great capability coupled with exceptional
safety. You require seating for up to eight in a vehicle
that can travel over 500 highway miles1
on a tank of
gas —and better highway fuel economy than any other
8-passenger SUV.2
you value advanced technology and
thoughtful ergonomics. In other words, you want a
premium utility that rejects compromise. You want the
gmc Acadia: the realization of what happens when you
engineer to exceed expectations.

Cargo and load capacity limited by weight and distribution.
The first thing you’ll notice about
Acadia is how its low stance
creates an easy step up for effort-
less entry. A low liftover height
means easy loading and unloading
of cargo. Choose the optional power
liftgate with remote operation for
convenient hands-free access to
the rear cargo area. Moving inside,
Acadia’s SmartSlide technology
means one hand is all it takes
to slide second-row seats forward
for easy access to the third row.
With its impressive shoulder and
leg room—plus a host of premium
amenities—Acadia truly responds
to the way you live your life, satis-
fying your desire for both comfort
and personal space.

CLEVER SEATING ARRANGEMENTS
With either of Acadia’s seating configurations, the SmartSlide system lets
you slide the second-row seats forward with one hand (right) for easy
access to the third-row seat. A second-row bench seat, standard on SL
and available on other models, gives Acadia room for eight. For seven-
passenger seating, choose available second-row captain’s chairs (shown)
and you get a generous aisleway with even easier access to the third row.
The contoured third-row seat has room for three adults, with 57 inches
of shoulder room for unexpected comfort and room to move. Both second-
and third-row seatbacks fold forward and lie flush, effectively creating a
flat cargo area surface and 116.9 cubic feet1
of cargo-carrying potential.

impressive engine technology
With Acadia’s Direct Injection (DI)
technology, a precisely metered jet
of fuel—adjusted to match engine
temperature and throttle demand—
is injected and atomized directly
into the combustion chamber.
There it mixes with incoming air
from the intake manifold. Precise
control of the fuel injection event
improves combustion efficiency
and reduces emissions, resulting
in improved fuel economy1
and
enhanced performance.
134024_14i_1.indd 1 7/21/09 8:33:00 AM
17. Direct-injection technology gives
Acadia unsurpassed standard
torque and more standard V-6
horsepower than any competitor
in its class.2
When you need to
accelerate—merging onto a busy
highway, for instance—Acadia
responds both immediately and
smoothly. Along with the power
to give you confidence in nearly
any driving situation, Acadia
also offers better highway fuel
economy than any other eight-
passenger SUV.3

THE ROAD WILL NEVER FEEL THE SAME
The body-frame integral
construction that makes getting
in and out of Acadia easy also
sets the stage for impressive
road manners. It forms a rigid
foundation that contributes to
a smooth ride and permits
traction-enhancing front-wheel
drive. Acadia’s linked H-arm
rear suspension system is state
of the art, featuring twin tube
shock absorbers, coil springs
and forged-steel toe, camber
and pendulum links. It mounts
on an isolated cross-member
subframe, which helps reduce
cabin noise. The lower H-arms
and knuckles are made from
aluminum, reducing unsprung
weight. Cross-axis ball joints
enhance handling in evasive
maneuvers. Together StabiliTrak,
traction control, hydraulic
rack-and-pinion steering and
advanced suspension all help
Acadia offer uncanny agility.

All-wheel drive
An available electronically con-
trolled on-demand AWD system
helps Acadia offer outstanding
ride and handling. It constantly
monitors and adjusts torque
quickly and seamlessly between
front and rear wheels as neces-
sary. In addition, it offers
outstanding fuel efficiency.1
STABILITY CONTROL / TRACTION CONTROL STANDARD
Helping to keep you firmly in
control, the StabiliTrak stability
control system is standard.
It’s an engineering advance
designed to improve safety,
stability and control on most
road surfaces. Sensors read
the position of your steering
wheel, vehicle speed, brake
pressure, lateral acceleration
and turning rate, and feed the
data to an onboard computer.
If your Acadia is not responding
adequately to your steering
input, the computer adjusts the
engine speed and the brake
pressure to any individual wheel
to help you keep on track. With
sensors that are programmed
to proactively predict and help
counteract vehicle tip-up on
a flat road surface, StabiliTrak
can even help to mitigate the
chance of a rollover.

PROFESSIONAL-GRADE ENGINEERING DEDICATED TO YOUR SAFETY AND SECURITY HIGH-STRENGTH STEEL CONSTRUCTION
Acadia surrounds you with
safety, before, during and, thanks
to OnStar, even after a collision.
It’s engineering that has earned
the 2010 Acadia a five-star crash
safety rating.1
It has a low center
of gravity and a long and wide
footprint for a secure stance. ABS,
StabiliTrak and traction control
are standard, and all-wheel drive
is available. Should a crash
occur, integral body-frame
construction works to route and
absorb impact. The 360° impact
and rollover sensors strategically
trigger the appropriate air bags.3
In rear impacts, retractor-mounted
pretensioners help secure the
driver and front passengers.
Integral body-frame construction
makes extensive use of high-
strength steel on primary load
paths. It also uses dual-phase
steel three times stronger than
carbon steel in key areas, taking
advantage of this material’s
ability to absorb the energy of
crash forces.

SIX AIR BAGS3
and PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM ONSTAR2
AUTOMATIC CRASH RESpONSE
Acadia comes with six air bags,3
two front dual-stage air bags and
two side-impact air bags for the
driver and front-seat passenger,
and head curtain side air bags
with rollover protection that
function like a protective curtain,
unfolding from the roof rail on
each side. Activated by side-
impact and rollover sensors, each
curtain includes air bag sections
for outboard front, second-row
and third-row passengers. The
front passenger air bag features
a Passenger Sensing System. It
uses a sensor within the front
passenger seat to detect the
weight of the occupant. Under a
certain weight, the system auto-
matically turns off the air bag.
In a crash, built-in sensors around
your vehicle can automatically
send an alert to OnStar.2
An
OnStar Advisor is immediately
connected to your vehicle to
see if you need help. Even if
you’re unable to respond, the
Advisor will use advanced GPS
technology to pinpoint your exact
location to direct emergency
help—even in areas of limited
cellular reception. The Advisor can
also relay critical crash informa-
tion to emergency responders,
such as severity and type of crash,
so responders are better equipped
to treat you at the scene. With
Automatic Crash Response, you
can get the help you need even
if you can’t ask for it. See page
24 or visit onstar.com for details.
1
Five-star rating is for the driver and front passenger seating positions in the frontal crash test and for the front and rear seating positions in the side-impact crash test. Side-impact crash test rating is for a model tested with standard head
curtain Side-impact Air Bags (SABs). Government star ratings are part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA’s) New Car Assessment Program (www.safercar.gov). 2
Call 1-888-4ONSTAR (466-7827) or visit onstar.com for
details and system limitations. OnStar acts as a link to existing emergency service providers. 3
Air bag inflation can cause severe injury or death to anyone too close to the air bag when it deploys. Always use safety belts and the correct restraint
for your child’s age and size. Even in vehicles equipped with the Passenger Sensing System, children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat in the appropriate infant, child or booster seat. Never place a rear-facing infant restraint in the
front seat of any vehicle equipped with a passenger air bag. See the Owner’s Manual and child safety seat instructions for more safety information.

26. OnStar
OnStar is a core asset of your Acadia. Benefiting from more than
a decade of innovative development, it is both a highly advanced
technology—fully integrated within the vehicle—and a warm human service.
One year of the OnStar Directions Connections plan is standard. In addition
to the convenience of Hands-Free Calling,1
it also includes Automatic Crash
Response (see page 19), Stolen Vehicle Assistance,2
link to Emergency Services,
Roadside Assistance, Remote Door Unlock,2
OnStar Vehicle Diagnostics, Crisis
Assist and Remote Horn and Lights. It also includes Turn-by-Turn Navigation3
(see right). OnStar services require vehicle electrical system (including battery),
wireless service and GPS satellite signals to be available and operating for
features to function properly. OnStar acts as a link to existing emergency service
providers. Subscription Service Agreement required. Call 1-888-4ONSTAR
(466-7827) or visit onstar.com for OnStar’s Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy,
details and system limitations.
OnStar Hands-Free Calling
OnStar Hands-Free Calling1
capability is built into your Acadia. It’s there when
your cell phone is unavailable, its battery is low, you can’t reach it easily or you
left it home or in the office. Your Hands-Free Calling system is the right choice
whenever you need an easy way to make and receive calls—at the touch of
the phone button on the rearview mirror or the steering-wheel-mounted controls
shown on page 6 (not available on SL models). Voice-activated dialing is con-
venient because you don’t have to dial when you are at the wheel. And Hands-Free
Calling is reliable because it’s specially designed for better reception and fewer
dropped calls in areas of limited cellular reception. You are invited to experience
the benefits yourself with 30 Hands-Free Calling minutes—on OnStar—during
the first two months you drive your Acadia, with no strings attached.
OnStar turn-by-turn navigation
Your OnStar Directions Connections plan also includes innovative, easy-to-use
Turn-by-Turn Navigation3
plus Information and Convenience Services. With Turn-
by-Turn Navigation, you simply tell the OnStar Advisor your intended destination,
and directions will automatically be sent to your Acadia. An automated voice then
guides you turn-by-turn until you arrive at your destination. Turn-by-Turn Navigation
is further enhanced with eNAV,4
allowing you to send MapQuest®
destinations
directly to your vehicle. No need to print out directions; just call them up with
simple voice commands.
XM Radio

is standard with 3 trial months of service. XM turns
your drive on with commercial-free music channels from virtually every genre,
