To make rear seat access as easy as possible, an innovative second row seat was designed for the GMC Acadia. With a pull of a large lever on the outer edge of the seat back (and a little muscle), the lower cushions tilts forward and the whole section folds compactly behind the front bucket. It takes a time or two to master, but after that the process proves quicker and easier than the tumble and fold action found in other crossovers and three-row SUVs. Plus, since the second row 60/40 split bench slides fore and aft, adjustments can be made to improve the comfort of second- and third-row passengers.
