GMC has officially launched the new 2026 Acadia Denali Ultimate in South Korea, introducing the model during the GMC Brand Day event in Seoul. This crossover is one of three vehicles GM will release in the country to strengthen its presence and promote its premium Professional Grade philosophy. The third-generation Acadia has already established itself in North America, and now the brand is betting on its role in Korea's large family crossover segment.

For the local market, only the top-tier Denali Ultimate version is available, focusing on maximum comfort and technology. The crossover features a turbocharged 2.5 LK0 engine producing 328 horsepower and 326 Nm of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The FE4 suspension with frequency-sensitive dampers enhances ride smoothness while maintaining high-level dynamics.

The interior centers around a seven-seat 2+2+3 layout, emphasizing the model's family-friendly nature while aligning with Acadia's premium positioning. Sales are conducted through the new Premium Channel—a combined network of GMC and updated Cadillac dealerships.

In Korea, the model is priced at 89.9 million won, equivalent to approximately $62,600. GMC expects the Acadia Denali Ultimate to become a key player in the country's large premium crossover segment and bolster the brand's position in the Asian region.
