2019 GMC Acadia vs. 2019 Honda CR-V
Just because the GMC Acadia and the Honda CR-V share the same class of the automotive industry, doesn’t mean that they are created equally. A comparison of the 2019 GMC Acadia vs. 2019 Honda CR-V clearly shows potential owners why staying true to its premium pickup truck DNA has more to offer than skewing toward a more sedate crossover SUV platform. While both vehicles use a unibody construction that makes the 2019 Acadia and CR-V easier to handle, the GMC model has retained its commitment to performance as well as towing capability. The 2019 Acadia offers more of both metrics across its entire lineup.

Performance Specs
There is almost no credible argument that can be made as to how the 2019 Honda CR-V is able to outperform the 2019 GMC Acadia. Entry-level versions of the Acadia are equipped with a 2.5-liter, inline four-cylinder engine that is attached to a six-speed automatic transmission. It will create up to 193 horsepower and 188 pound-feet of torque. For maximum available performance, upper trim grades of the GMC crossover SUV are outfitted with a 3.6-liter, V-6 engine and its own version of the six-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain pushes the peak output to 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. Not only does the 2019 CR-V not feature a V-6 option, but none of its four-cylinder options can match the performance of the GMC Acadia.
