Lincoln MKX vs. GMC Acadia Review

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs almost the same to get the GMC Acadia to the dealership as the Lincoln MKX. There frankly isn't much of a difference in gas mileage here, but if you must know, the GMC Acadia is a little more economical than the Lincoln MKX. Producing a precise gas mileage evaluation is so difficult that some think not even the federal government can do it, but it looks as though both the GMC Acadia and the GMC Acadia perform approximately similarly as far as gas mileage. The Lincoln MKX isn't much more expensive than the GMC Acadia with respect to MSRP.

Utility
Drivers with frequent child-duty might favor the GMC Acadia over the MKX.

Convenience
You will quite certainly have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the MKX than with the GMC.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Acadia offers a bit more head room than the MKX, there frankly isn't much of a difference. The Lincoln MKX provides more head- and leg-room to your passengers than the GMC Acadia does.

Dimensions
The Lincoln MKX's tank is almost the same size as the Acadia's, though the GMC's is a tad bigger. The Lincoln MKX and the GMC Acadia compete for the same parking spaces. The GMC Acadia's longer wheelbase will likely result in a smoother, more stable ride; on the flip side, the Lincoln may give a more agile feel in daily traffic.

Handling
With their similar turning radii, the Lincoln MKX and the Acadia definitely handle almost the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Lincoln MKX and the GMC Acadia have similar-sized engines, with a slight advantage to the GMC Acadia. Torque is the force that lets you accelerate quickly, and in this respect, the GMC Acadia isn't much more powerful than the Lincoln MKX.

Warranty
The basic warranty that comes with the GMC isn't quite as generous as the Lincoln MKX's.
