General Motors developed and manufactured the GMC Envoy SUV from 2002 through 2009 through the advanced GMT360 platform design. Introduced in 2002 the GMC Envoy brought a body-on-frame construction that kept the vehicle more structurally strong and improved driver behavior relative to historic SUV campers. General Motors revived the North American market production of the 4.2L Vortec 4200 inline six-cylinder engine after its 1984 discontinuation. In 2003 the available V8 engine reached 290 hp before the 5.3L V8 received Displacement on Demand system updates to 300 hp in 2005 as the main fuel efficiency upgrade. The GMC Envoy gave customers three different transmission configurations including rear-wheel drive, permanent two-wheel drive, along with "Shift On-Demand" 4WD that gave users options for diverse driving environments. The suspension system included two-stage independent front mounting with Bilstein shock absorbers and the five-link rear axle that could be equipped with air suspension for improved load balance capabilities. Standard safety improvements on the Envoy included Stabilitrak during 2006 alongside both cruise control and monitoring tire pressure systems. Owners of GMC vehicles should choose OEM GMC Envoy parts since they follow rigorous factory standards and extensive testing that maintains both performance quality and reliability.
