2011 GMC Acadia Denali Ranks High in Comparison Against 2011 Toyota Highlander & 2011 Honda Pilot

April 26, 2011 - PRLog -- Research performed by staff writer found that the 2011 GMC Acadia Denali luxury, crossover SUV ranks strongly in a direct comparison with both the 2011 Honda Pilot and 2011 Toyota Highlander. Whether considering horsepower, torque, displacement and compression ratio, the  2011 GMC Acadia Denali beats the competition easily. The 2011 model’s significantly-better numbers are evidence of what GMC already knew. It has a more powerful crossover SUV, with the power and towing capacity that any driver in Charlotte, Matthews or Monroe, NC could benefit from.

In comparing to lesser-equipped competitors, such as the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander, the GMC Acadia Denali’s maximum payload (1755 lbs), towing (5200 lbs), and GVWR (6411) figures* are quite impressive. In addition, the Acadia Denali boasts an automatic, 6-speed transmission with overdrive, verses the competitions’ 5-speed transmissions. At 118.9 inches, this SUV’s wheelbase is considerably larger than both the Toyota (109.8 inches) and Honda  (109.2 inch) models. The Acadia Denali’s wider wheelbase results in a more stable foundation that can handle all of the power this amazing SUV has to offer.

The 2011 Acadia Denali is a winner with regard to dimensions, cabin space and cargo area also. This powerful crossover can seat 8 passengers comfortably in its large cabin, while the Toyota Highlander can only seat a maximum of 7.  To top it off, the GMC Acadia Denali has more head room in both the front (40.4 in.) and rear (38.4 in.), as well as the rear leg room (33.2 in.). The 2011 GMC Acadia Denali can store an amazing 115.9 cu.ft. in its usable EPA trunk or cargo space. Unfortunately for the competition, the Toyota (95.4 cu.ft.) and Honda (87.0 cu.ft.) are sadly lacking.
