GM Tools2012 GMC Acadia Crossover Has Lowest Ownership Cost
Rittman, Ohio December 23, 2011 – Premier GMC of Wadsworth/Rittman owners of the new 2012 GMC Acadia crossover vehicle can be assured that their selection of GMC’s full-size crossover will cost them less to own over time than competitor models.
ALG, the industry benchmark for residual values and depreciation data, awarded Acadia the 2012 Residual Value Award at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The award indicates that after three years of ownership, Acadia will be worth a higher percentage of its original sales price than any vehicle in its segment, including Toyota Highlander and Ford Explorer.
Resale value is widely regarded as one of the most important vehicle purchase considerations because it can literally save consumers thousands of dollars over the life of the vehicle.
“Our customers know the importance of the value of the GMC Acadia, which can save consumers thousands of dollars over the life of the vehicle,” said Tom Casto of Premier GMC. “These accolades verify what many of our customers already know – that GMC’s Professional Grade vehicles continue to deliver great value.”
Acadia and its stable mate, the 2012 GMC Terrain smaller SUV also earned Consumer’s Digest “Best Buy” awards in their respective segments at the auto show. This award is given to fewer than 3 percent of competing vehicles in any given category.
With innovative technologies like IntelliLink infotainment coming to Terrain later in 2012 and GM’s innovative front center air bag debuting as standard equipment on Acadia in 2013, both vehicles are well-positioned to continue attracting consumers to GMC. As of October, one of every two Acadia and Terrain buyers this year was coming from a non-GM brand.
