Incomparable Power

Drivers looking for a thrilling, adventure-seeking level of power will find an easy winner in this match-up. The Acadia has three engine options.

To make the difference even stronger, the Explorer offers an engine upgrade, a turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 that punches out 400 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. The Explorer also has a hybrid powertrain for drivers who want to go green.
