If you’re starting to look into three-row SUV options near Henrico, you’ve probably noticed the 2020 GMC Acadia and the 2020 Honda Pilot on Richmond-area streets and highways. Both full-size SUVs will catch your eye with their stylish exteriors, but when you compare the new GMC Acadia vs. Honda Pilot in-depth, you’ll discover some important differences in their price range, capabilities, and more.

GMC Acadia vs. Honda Pilot: Price Range

A brand-new SUV is a serious investment, and it’s important to stay on budget as you shop. The GMC Acadia makes this easier with a lower starting price of $30,995 MSRP compared to $32,770 MSRP for the Honda Pilot. If you plan to accessorize your vehicle with road trip-ready exterior equipment or an upgraded technology package for the interior, that $1,775 difference can become pretty significant.

Honda Pilot vs. GMC Acadia: Engine Power

GMC vs. Honda has always created tough comparisons across their model lineups, and the Honda Pilot vs. GMC Acadia is no different. Both SUVs are built to impress with a powerful base engine; while it’s true that the base-level Honda Pilot generates more horsepower and torque, the GMC Acadia settles the difference with a more competitive city mpg rating.

GMC Acadia vs. Honda Pilot: Towing Capacity
