Performance and Drivability

The GMC Acadia offers two impressive powertrains for Lowell, MA, drivers. The standard version is a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine with 228 horsepower. From the interior of the Acadia, you can hear the hum of the engine as you increase in speed. The light vibrations are exhilarating and remind you of the fact that you're driving an Acadia. For bolder performance, a 3.6L V6 engine with 310 horsepower is optional. Both powertrains come with a nine-speed automatic transmission, and an adaptive suspension system is present on the Denali for impeccable handling. Generally, the Acadia drives well, and even at top speeds - the vehicle doesn't sacrifice control. Sharp turns aren't a problem due to precise handling, and the Acadia is reactive enough to respond to quick, challenging situations well.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee guarantees an impressively unforgettable drive with three available powertrain options. The standard version is a 3.6L V6 engine for a great daily commute. Provided you're from Lowell, MA, the 5.7L Hemi V8 is a robust and daunting option. One can certainly feel the engine roar from inside the vehicle, and the throttle is responsive and energetic. Acceleration is quick, and the vehicle sports from 0 to 60 in 7.4 seconds with the standard powertrain. The Jeep Grand Cherokee also features a plug-in hybrid 4xe powertrain for drivers looking for a sustainable option. The powertrain combines a turbocharged 2.0L inline-four with an electric traction motor for 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. The motor is powered by a 14.0 kWh battery pack, providing essential sustain.

Interior and Cabin Space

The GMC Acadia hosts an incredible interior to the delight of Marlborough drivers. Upscaled amenities and high-quality upholsteries drape the seats of the Acadia, and there are plenty of customizable options to increase the comfort of passengers. Cargo space is extensive, and a third row is a great option for family members or storing luggage. Technology is also present within the cabin space, as the Acadia features a touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and WiFi Hotspot capabilities.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee provides Nashua, NH, with a balanced, aesthetic arrangement of seats and Jeep-exclusive amenities. Upholstery is comfortable, and cargo space is extensive.
