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.

  GMCs Number 1 - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By Bubba692007 - July 14 - 10:00 pm

  I purchased my Envoy two years ago and am totally in love with it. I keep up with the maintenance myself at home. I have yet to have a problem with it. It has been a totally reliable vehicle for me and my family. In two years I have not had to fix anything on it other than a door that was damaged in an accident. It rides like a dream and is very comfortable for me, my wife and daughter. The amount of room in it is for the most part more than we need. I can see still having enough room if we were to have another child as well. I am a die hard GM fan, its in my blood and the Envoy has reassured me that i will always ride with GM products. It is well worth the money.

  Cant beat it! - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By Debbie - July 8 - 3:48 pm

  Going from a Acura sports car, to a GMC Envoy, I was impressed. Both had the power and comfort I needed and enjoy. The kids like that they can listen to their own music from the back, when they forget to bring something along for the journey. Its very open and roomy I dont feel closed in like some SUVs. I dont have a blind spots, and the sunroof is perfect for more openness. Testing other mid size SUVs, Im happy to say.... this was a perfect choice.

  It has been a reliable and especially comfortable vehicle for me. You could not ask for more options with the SLT package.

  Wish It would work - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By Envoy_User - March 18 - 5:43 am

  When traveling over 60 mph My truck has alot of wind noise. The biggest problem I have is the ABS, Break light, and Traction Off light will come on while driving about 4 times a week. I keep hearing a rattle from the passenger side of the truck that the dealer cannot find. When the truck is running right I do enjoy the ride even though I only get between 12 and 15 miles per gallon on the high way.

  Pleased since I bought it. - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By smavrides - February 19 - 3:54 pm

  I bought the vehicle 3 months ago and havent had to look back since. The vehicle has been reliable with virtually no problems aside from basic wear and tear. Ive put a little over 5,000 miles on it since I bought it and it was well worth it. I recommend it.

  Beats the Explorer by 1.1 mile - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By Polu - December 16 - 7:33 pm

  The Envoy obviously has the zest when accelerating, but did not feel too responsive in city stop and go. There is also a noticeable body lean driving around corners. However, overall performance, handsome looks, and the loaded features out weights all this; especially the Explorer.

  Envoy Piston problems??? - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By newbee envoy owner - November 10 - 9:53 am

  Just a few weeks into buying an envoy, the piston cracked and the whole engine and new style of piston had to be replaced. 2 weeks in the shop already. Anyone else had this problem? Like the truck, except the cheap fake wood grain dash.

  luv my truckette - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By tallgrass - September 17 - 2:23 am

  took this suv off the floor and drove for 2300 miles in 5 days. Mileage as high as 23.5 and low of 18.4 with a strong head wind. Came from a suburban since 86 and was sceptical. Other than storage room, it is great for the 2 of us. Love the gadgets, ride and comfort. It has everything but the dvd and we took the mood roof. Rides great, quiet and very good torque.

  Junk, plain and simple, AVOID THEM. - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By Citizen Z - September 2 - 9:11 pm

  This is a classic "throw away" vehicle, it is not built to last longer than the factory warranty period. When it does have a failure it is always Major and cost a fortune to fix. With 150,000 it needs a new engine, the VVT solenoid and sprocket have both been replaced, the oil pressure sending unit has been replaced (it still will not hold oil pressure at idle), the oil pan seal (silicon, no gasket) is a $500 repair, the valve cover gasket is a $400 repair, front wheel bearings fail every 50,000 miles and are a $500 job, the transmission slams into gear after coasting for a bit which makes me suspect that it is failing too. It averages 8-13 miles per gallon, which is beyond a gas guzzler. The check engine light is always on for something different(not a "loose gas cap") and the cruise control will not work if the check engine light is on. It rattles, creaks, pops, squeaks, and has major major wind noise. Fix one thing, and something else fails within a couple of weeks.

  Lousy suv - 2002 GMC Envoy
  By duped - August 26 - 10:00 am

  Having driven this car for 20k miles,Im getting rid of it. It is very uncomfortable, has poorly designed interior features, handles slugglishlyt and is lousy in deep snow and offroad. Many things have broken, fallen off, or were installed incorrectly. Quality is poor for the hefty price. Never again!
