Overview & Reviews

For 2003, Envoy buyers are able to order certain options individually, rather than as part of an equipment package, adding potential savings and increased flexibility. The sport-ute's already powerful Vortec 4.2-liter inline six also gets a slight bump in horsepower, up from 270 to 275, and Envoys now boast a new four-position headlamp switch that permits drivers to turn off the vehicle's daytime running lamps and automatic headlamps when necessary. Additionally, the Envoy gets a larger fuel tank that holds 22 gallons. Previously standard side airbags are now optional, while autodimming side mirrors and the rear seat overhead compartment have been deleted.

• Plenty of cool options, strong six-cylinder power, attractive interior design.

• Numb steering, plasticky interior pieces, feels tippy in the twisties.

  "Tippy" ??? That is crazy!!! - 2003 GMC Envoy
  By Uncle Chuck - May 7 - 2:00 am

  The Envoy is a very stable and safe feeling drive. At no moment have I ever felt it to be "Tippy". Perhaps who ever described it that way was referring to an older model like a 2000. If you are reading this, call Allen GMC in Laguna Niguel, CA for a test drive. Im sure you will agree with me.

  GMC has done it right with Envoy - 2003 GMC Envoy
  By bokubux - April 28 - 2:00 am

  Overall good value, comfortable, quiet, solid ride, excellent acceleration. We looked at Ford Explorer, Toyota 4Runner, and this was as good or better at a more reasonable price. The Toyota was presented as a better built vehicle, but it cost thousands more. However, we have really had no problems with over 24,000 miles driven on the Envoy. At 21,000 miles one wiper blade had to be replaced because it did not clear the windshield well enough after ice built up (cost apprx $10.).

  Envoy: A Well-Built Performer - 2003 GMC Envoy
  By USCTrojan - April 20 - 2:00 am

  I seriously checked out the Honda, Toyota, and other offerings in the mid-size SUV category. The Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander are like driving heavy, underpowered minivans. I was shocked by their lack of style and quality. They felt like and looked like Fisher- Price. The GMC Envoy is truly a half luxury, half workhorse SUV built by a truck division. My fuel economy is as promised between 15 and 22. Passengers most often compliment the smooth drive. As someone who really studied the mid-size SUV category, the GMC Envoy stands out from the crowd because of its solid performance, stable suspension, upscale styling, and quality build.

  NEW SLT - 2003 GMC Envoy
  By EDLee - April 20 - 2:00 am

  We have owned SUVs for many years. So far this is one of the best. Lots of power and looks classy. Pewter Metallic with pewter leather interior. Plenty of goodies to play with and Bose system is great. Just got it so time will tell with the reliability issue. Have a 96 Blazer that has been a great vehicle. Traded in a 2000 Tundra, not sorry to see it go. Test drove a Volvo XC70, was not impressed. Volvo dealer was the worst I have experienced to date. GMC dealer outstanding.

  NEVER AGAIN - 2003 GMC Envoy
  By Not for me - April 17 - 2:00 am

  The engine is great but the mileage is awful. Fun to drive but you cant talk to the person next to you because of all the wind/road noise. The stereo is pitiful especially if you have a window open. CD was eaten by player, lites flashed on/off first week, had to have door realigned , seatbelt locks up, ticking from tailgate unfound,loose weatherstripping and sagging headliner around sunroof....all this for too much money!! I am off to the Honda dealer for an Odessey or Pilot. Sorry America, I tried.

  2003 Envoy - 2003 GMC Envoy
  By gdanekas - April 11 - 2:00 am

  Fuel economy is nothing like the 3800 V- 6 in other GM automobiles. Not sure why mileage is so poor when it is stated V- 8 power with V-6 economy.

  My first SUV! - 2003 GMC Envoy
  By ranchan80 - April 10 - 2:00 am

  After looking at other SUVs, including the QX4, the highlander, and the RX- 300, I found that the Envoy fit my needs the best! The looks, the performance, and the price won me over. I have had it for about 6000 miles right now, and not a thing wrong with it! Just experienced a horrible Nebraska winter, and the Envoy handled it with ease! Glad i bought it!
