More Technology Inside the Cabin
You don't have to spend much time in a new vehicle before noticing how much technology has become part of the driving experience. GMC is leaning into that for 2027.
The Terrain, for example, has a 15-inch diagonal infotainment display paired with an 11-inch driver information screen. Google built-in gives you access to features such as Google Maps and Google Assistant right through the vehicle.
The Acadia also has some useful tech for daily driving. Super Cruise is available on select trims, giving drivers hands-free driving assistance on compatible roads.1
Depending on the model, you may also find available camera systems,2 wireless smartphone connectivity, and other features designed to make getting around a little easier.
The Sierra 1500 Is Getting a Big Makeover
If you're a truck shopper, the 2027 Sierra 1500 deserves a closer look. GMC is introducing a new generation of the pickup with a redesigned exterior and interior.
There are a few significant changes under the hood, too. GMC is adding two new V8 engines while continuing to offer a diesel engine and the TurboMax engine. The truck also gets updated trailering technology and a more advanced digital setup inside the cabin.
Higher trims get their own upgrades. The Denali Ultimate focuses on upscale materials and features, while the AT4X continues to target drivers who want serious off-road capability.
For someone who uses a truck for work but still wants something comfortable enough for everyday driving, those differences can be important.
