subject: Gmc Used Cars- The Envoy Sure Packs A Punch [print this page] GMC used cars like the Envoy is a mid-size SUV that replaced the crossover Terrain in 2009. This mid-size SUV has a 285 horsepower, 4.2litre engine. The Envoy also comes with a 4-speed automatic transmission and the V8 engine has a cylinder deactivation system that helps with the overall fuel consumption. With this cylinder deactivation system it is believed you get anywhere between 15 to 22 miles per gallon. The GMC Envoy comes in four trims and each offers both all-wheel drive and rear wheel drive.
GMC Envoy used cars come with a satellite radio, stability control, ABS brakes and OnStar. The Envoy seats four to five people comfortably and also features a CD player with cruise control. The GMC Envoy has front air bags and head air bags for both rows. In 2008 it also received five stars for a side impact test. The cargo area has 43 cubic feet and can be expanded to 80; you also have the option of a roof rack that can help with storage. As you can see youre getting a good range of features that new cars and trucks have today.
The Envoy is able to tow up 6600 pounds with its V8 engine. People have been known to take it off road because of the 3-mode, all-wheel drive system, but I wouldnt recommend it. The GMC Envoy is really made for family stuff, so dont think of buying it if you plan on doing a little off road, it only has eight inches of ground clearance.
Overall GMC used cars like the Envoy drive great and that makes you feel like youre driving a car. With the Envoy you get a very safe vehicle and that makes the GMC Envoy one of the best mid-size SUVs you can buy. If you are Canadian and thinking of buying a used Envoy, I would suggest looking in America, you can save thousands of dollars.
