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.

GMC Envoy - 2003 GMC Envoy
By sweigand - April 6 - 3:00 amThe 2003 GMC Envoy is an insuperior product and value in comparison to the competition. The engine has large amounts of vibrations that come through the foot pedals and give your feet a tingling sensation. GMC claims this to fall within specification on the Envoy and cannot eliminate the vibration. The fit and finish on the vehicle is also poor. The average MPG I have been getting with the truck is 14 to 15 MPG which GMC also claims to be within specification. I would highly recommend checking out alternatives to the GMC Envoy when purchasing this class of vehicle.

I love my Envoy - 2003 GMC Envoy
By MIkeOrangeman - April 3 - 2:00 amUnquestionably the best new vehicle Ive owned. The Envoy has ample power and great maneuverability. Id put this vehicle up against anything a competitor has to offer. Its very solidly built and Im very pleased with it. Bravo GMC!

Good SUV - 2003 GMC Envoy
By GAD - April 3 - 2:00 amThis SUV is Comfortable with the leather option. Ride is good and interior quiet for an SUV on a truck frame. The Handling is good and doesnt feel like it will roolover in turns like its sister the Trailerbazer.

Not bad! - 2003 GMC Envoy
By Andrew_jad - March 28 - 2:00 amIts my first SUV and overall, I like it. GM could make few improvements with better quality interior components such as seats and plastic all over. A better and tightly-fit exterior parts (uneven edges and wide gaps) would make it nicer. Experienced rattling/roving noise after using 2/4WD switch. Dealer couldnt figure out.. happens on and off..

Great SUV - 2003 GMC Envoy
By Stanman626 - March 12 - 2:00 amOutstanding engine performance especially in the mid range. Interior and seating are comfortable for someone my size (62 220). It made its way through our last 8 snow storm with no problems and has handled some light off road snow covered trails with ease. The only improvements would be to have Heads Up Display (HID), which should be on every GM product with a base price over 28,000 and have the CD options on the steering wheel instead of the HVAC controls. Most drivers change their radio stations and flip through the CD tracks far more often than changing the HVAC settings. GMC Professional Grade?, close but not there yet.

Total Comfort - 2003 GMC Envoy
By wxb - March 7 - 2:00 amWe have driven a Ford Explorer for the last 8 years. We recently purchased the GMC Envoy after test driving 10 other models and we have found a winner. The ride is smooth, interior is quite, acceleration is excellent.

Good so far! - 2003 GMC Envoy
By Hartfordguy - March 5 - 2:00 amPriced well among same size competitors. Engine is very reactive which is always nice. Fuel capacity is poor as usual. Never understood why they make a car that gets poor gas milage with a 16 gallon gas tank! Interior: Good, only one mistake. For such a roomy interior, they cheaped out on the technology for cup holders. There are 2 cup holders, one undersized jammed in between the console and the shifter, the other behind the shirfter....in the way of the arm rest. other than that, good!

Love It! - 2003 GMC Envoy
By Envoy Mama - March 2 - 2:00 amI searched for a long time to find the perfect replacement for my minivan and I found it! I needed the convienence of the third row seat for carpool,etc but I also wanted to find something that wasnt quite as "mom-mobile" as my van. Needless to say, the sleek looking XL grabbed my attention and won me over when I drove it. There isnt really anything I can complain about. I feel secure, my kids have ample room and the cargo space is generous when all 3 rows are in use. I would have liked arm rests and a larger storage compartment between the seats (which my husband has in his Sierra) but as far as all around looks and function..I am one happy Mama.

03 Envoy - 2003 GMC Envoy
By skydo - February 26 - 2:00 amI really enjoy driving this Envoy. It looks great and has a Cady ride. I do agree the it is a bit "tippy" feeling when cornering hard but it is a SUV after all. The I-6 power is great and doesnt have a soft spot. The 4WD system is easy to get to when needed.

Im not sure about this one... - 2003 GMC Envoy
By ZeeGee - February 17 - 2:00 amI really wanted to like this truck. The size was right, I liked the I-6 engine config and it seemed as though GM had turned the corner on the quality and design of their products...but it appears they havent. Get the car up to speed (btw, it seemed as if it had 170hp not 270) make a pseudo evasive maneuver and the Envoy falls all over itself, it actually swam side to side when I test drove it! Far worse than the larger Tahoe or Suburban in fact. The brakes are mushy and the small 2nd row seats giggles like a kids amusement toy. The salesman told me they were really discounting this car and now I know why. Too bad.
