Both SUVs offer bold styling but appeal to different drivers. The Acadia leans toward rugged versatility, while the Blazer emphasizes sportiness and sleek design.
GMC AcadiaThe redesigned 2025 Acadia features a larger, more commanding presence with a wider grille, bold LED headlights, and increased dimensions, adding over 10 inches in length compared to the previous model. Trim-specific accents on Elevation, AT4, and Denali versions give the Acadia a unique identity. Functional roof rails, 20-inch wheels, and advanced aerodynamics support both utility and style.
Chevrolet BlazerThe Blazer's coupe design and aggressive lines convey a direct performance stance. Its available RS trim features gloss-black exterior detailing, black bowtie emblems, and bold wheels. The Blazer may also be upgraded with 20- or 21-inch wheels and signature C-shaped LED lights. Roof rails and a hands-free liftgate make it even more practical.
Both SUVs are equipped with turbocharged engines and decent towing capacity, but the Acadia delivers more torque and base horsepower. The Blazer gives you two engine options based on your style of driving.
