New for the 2011 model year is the upcoming GMC Acadia Denali. If you thought the old Denali was a great car, than you haven’t seen this new model. Unveiled at the 2010 Detroit Auto Show; the Acadia was showcased as GMC’s first crossover to get the “Denali” badge.
The Acadia with the Denali spin has some additional but subtle new features. The styling to the new model is also a little different. The most prevalent changes of the exterior are the chrome grille and the changes to the front and back lower fascias. The fascia and fender flares are also the same color as the body. The 2011 Denali also comes with High Intensity Discharge headlamps, body colored lower cladding and rocker moldings, 20 inch wheel, dual chrome exhaust pipes, and, of course, Denali badges.
On the inside, there are heated and cooled driver and passenger seats with leather and matching trim, a head up display, two sunroof systems with a front sliding sunroof and a stationed rear roof, and a leather wrapped steering wheel with wood mahogany accents. The Denali also sports a navigation system, accent lighting, a rearview camera, back-seat DVD entertainment system, and automatic climate control in three areas.
As far as the engine goes, the new model will feature a six speed automatic 288horsepower 3.6 Liter V6 engine. This is the same engine as the other Acadia models. Also offered are front- and all wheel drive options. Buyers can also decide between seven and eight passenger configurations. Fuel economy for the Denali includes 17 miles per gallon in the city and 24 miles per gallon on the highway, for the front wheel drive models, and 16 miles per gallon city driving and 23 miles per gallon highway driving for all wheel drive models. GM hasn’t officially announced the price for the Denali package but its speculated to range from $38,490 to $40,490.
