GMC Yukon XL wins AutoPacific 2007 Vehicle Satisfaction Award for Large SUVs

I just returned from a driving event for the recently introduced Buick Enclave in St. Louis, Missouri. When I got into the office there was a Saturn Outlook in the parking lot for the AutoPacific and VehicleVoice staff to evaluate. Great opportunity for a back to back comparison of two Lambda crossovers.

The Saturn Outlook is a large Crossover SUV based on the General Motors' Lambda platform. The Lambda platform is shared with the Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia and also with an upcoming Chevrolet large Crossover.

AutoPacific and VehicleVoice staffers have been evaluating a 2007 GMC Sierra with a list price of $47,135. Looking at the LA Times this weekend, I saw some full size half ton pickups offered in the mid-teens. Let's see if there is enough "product" in the Sierra we are evaluating to justify the price.

For the past thirteen years, Sport Utility Vehicles have been the product segment that is most considered by American driving public. 2006 was no exception.

GMC's Acadia could be forging a new sweet spot for the brand.

With Saturn Outlook, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave, General Motors crossover SUVs get competitive.
