This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Sharp exterior styling, strong six-cylinder power, attractive interior design.
Cons:
  • Numb steering, plasticky interior pieces, feels tippy in the twisties.

    Quality of products used for the interior are poor. Handeling is poor.

    I love my Envoy. It is very spacious, and I can manage the vehicle very well. The style of the vehicle is good. Not to big and not to little.

  • Best Ride So Far - 2002 GMC Envoy
    By -

    I have owned many types of automobiles. 68 Corvette Convertible, 91 Lincoln Continental, 93 Toyota Camry V6, and I traded a 99 Jimmy SLT in for the Envoy. This is the best ride I have ever experienced. The Engine is strong across the band width and quite. The ride is as smooth if not smoother then the Continental and it has a turn radius so small (my wife’s Rav 4 does not turn as tight) it is scary. The only complaint I have is the fuel tank size and I wished I had waited for the XL for the extra people hauling. I have not had one problem and believe it or not, not a single GM rattle has popped up. So far this SUV has been flawless.

  • Very Comfortable SUV, car like ride - 2002 GMC Envoy
    By -

    Its a big vehicle but drives like a car. I have had Ford Explorers a 94. and 97 and they were very truck like. GM always have seats that I feel are very comfortable and this SUV is no exception. I have the SLT 2 wheel drive, with running boards, sun roof, side air bags, Bose system. Big roomy vehicle. I came out of a 2003 Acura TL type S, I figured out I wasnt the sports car type plus I found the TL lacking in quality contrary to their reputation. The GMC seems to have built very well. My only problems so far was chattering wiper blades, dealer replaced under warranty, and a defective switch in A/C that caused it to work intermittenly. Dealer fixed.

  • Edmonds Doesnt Get It - 2002 GMC Envoy
    By -

    It is strange that the review put forth by Edmonds for the 2002 Envoy was replete with accolades for design, performance, comfort, style, etc. Indeed, it was most deserving of the 2002 SUV of the year award. Their review for the same vehicle in 2003 seems to indicate that it is a much lesser product. Apparently the minor change to the taillight and a 5 HP increase destroyed their vision for 2003. Also contrary to Edmonds opinion, I have had a number of favorable comments on the leather interior. Guess I am just too easy to please.

  • 02 Envoy SLT - 2002 GMC Envoy
    By -

    Great truck, most riders compare it to the MB and BMW X5.

  • 7 months later and still happy - 2002 GMC Envoy
    By -

    I purchased the SLT with all of the bells and whistles. 15,000 miles later, and I am still whistling! I have extremely satisfied with my Envoy. The only repairs (other than routine) were to replace the pump in the load leveling suspension. The bad pump was replaced in a day, and I was on my way. Smooth ride, expected fuel mileage, lots of extras....looks great!
