Overview & Reviews
Long overdue for a redesign, GMC's all-new Envoy finally gets the goods to compete in the highly competitive midsize SUV segment. An all-aluminum inline six-cylinder engine replaces the aging 4.3-liter V6, and a revised suspension dramatically improves the ride. Unlike the 2000 Envoy that was virtually indistinguishable from its Chevrolet and Oldsmobile siblings, the 2002 model now sports a new look that is unique to the GMC brand.
- Sharp exterior styling, strong six-cylinder power, attractive interior design.
- Numb steering, plasticky interior pieces, feels tippy in the twisties.

Envovy XL - 2002 GMC Envoy
By Hawkclark - November 25 - 2:00 amGood vehicle. Feels solid and has provided a really quiet ride. V8 engine delivers good pick-up. Like the roominess plus the interior finish is nice. Even though its a truck based vehicle, vehicle delivers a smooth ride.

Lemon - 2002 GMC Envoy
By mike288 - November 22 - 2:00 amI bought in June 2001. One of the first of a new model. Bad idea... Have had many problems in the shop many times... A/C still doesnt work right. Cools great when moving but if im stopped i.e. traffic, light etc. it stops cooling. Brutal in Boston traffic in the summer! Poor quality workmanship... Does look nice though but now that its out of warranty Im getting rid of it. Oh one of the other many problems is t he mirrors they never worked right even after to new motors.. memory!

lots of shop time - 2002 GMC Envoy
By Yankee - October 9 - 2:00 amWithin the past two years and 30,000 miles: Transmission started clunking because of a leak due to a bad seal (repaired). No 4WD due to a bad computer (replaced). No go due to a bad battery (replaced). No go due to a bad starter (replaced). Brake pulsation due to corroded rotors (all four replaced!) Roof rack came loose, door weather seals came loose. Disappointing fuel milage. Hate the front seat belts (they wont release).

Envoy Rocks! - 2002 GMC Envoy
By adadude - September 18 - 8:06 pmThis vehicle is wider and taller than the prior model year, and the interior is as comfortable as you could ever expect in an SUV. The performance is fantastic, given the inline 6s output above even the V8s offered in this class. Turning radius is astonishingly small. The inline six allows this as the engine takes less room than a "V" configuration. I recommend the Envoy. The SLT model has every luxury appointment you could ask for, shy of an LCD screen navigation system.

Ready to Go - 2002 GMC Envoy
By GeorgeTanya - September 11 - 2:00 amThis truck is comfortable, dependable and attractive. The engine is powerful and runs cool all day at freeway speeds, even in the southwest desert region.

Learned the hard way on new vehicle - 2002 GMC Envoy
By ENVOY IS A LOSS - August 28 - 2:00 amKick myself for buying this expensive SUV. It looks great, is comfortable, but the service aspect is horrible. 1.5 years and 10 trips to service. GM should be paying me for my time at this point. A/C broken, Constant Rattles under, Squeeks, Parts wearing out. I didnt pay 30k + to have to deal with this...foreign suvs here I come. Dont forget. Gas tank, size of a geo metro! Cup holder, not enough and in worst possible places.

Overall, a good thing - 2002 GMC Envoy
By meqa - August 20 - 2:00 amI love the look (inside & out) of my 2003 Envoy. The gas mileage is alright. However, coming from a 2000 Expedition, I miss the room. We only have two kids so the room is adequate, but I miss the width of the Expedition. But I do have a lot of trunk space now. I get a lot of compliments on the look of my Envoy. I also love driving with the sunroof open, the Bose stereo on and the woodgrain look accents and the leather interior. It is indeed a fine looking vehicle. I have read reviews about the ride being like that of a truck, but I think the ride is pretty smooth. Overall, I think the Envoy is a good thing!
