GMC High Feature V6 (2017) specs: 217 ci (3.6L) 6-cylinder, 3.701 x 3.37 in (94 x 85.6 mm) bore and stroke. Built 2017. Used in the GMC Acadia. DOHC.

The GMC High Feature V6 (2017) is oversquare — the 3.7008" bore exceeds the 3.3701" stroke by 9.8% — a layout that favors airflow and RPM over leverage at the crank. The 3.3701" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 7,100 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 6 cylinders displaces 36.2 ci (593 cc).

It is one of 9 engines in the High Feature V6 family, sitting between the 169 ci and 222.7 ci members.
