While the truck-based SUVs were becoming less popular due to the appearance of the crossovers, GMC designed the Envoy for those who were still looking for a traditional approach of an SUV.

Of course, compared to a crossover, the Envoy offered a tougher off-road capability and better towing capacity.

Very similar to the Chevrolet TrailBlazer in regards to the exterior design, the Envoy offered a more luxurious cabin and an extensive list of features.

The Envoy was offered in three trim levels: the SLE, the SLT and the Denali.

The base trim level included 17-inch alloys, dual-zone air-conditioning, power accessories, keyless entry and the OnStar communication system.

The mid-range SLT featured a power driver seat, automatic climate control, leather upholstery and steer-wheel-mounted controls.

The Denali had slightly different exterior design, bringing a distinctive honeycomb grille, bigger 18-inch alloys, heated seats and a premium Bpse sound system.

Option packages were also available, with features including power-folding heated exterior mirrors, auto-dimming rearview mirrors, roof rails and even a DVD entertainment system and a sunroof.

The navigation system could be added only with the SLT and the Denali trim level.

Safety wise, the Envoy features antilock disc brakes, stability control and head curtain airbags.

The Envoy managed to score 5 stars out of 5 for the protection of the front and the rear passengers in case of a side impact.
