2008 GMC Envoy Review
Overview
Leave ordinary a long long way behind. The 2008 GMC Envoy is capable of handling tough challenges and the most difficult driving conditions with ease. Envoy's serious capability starts with a choice of 2 great engines. Envoy SLE and SLT feature the advanced Vortec 4.2L I-6 engine that produces 291 hp and 277 lb.-ft. of torque. Envoy Denali is powered by a muscular Vortec 5.3L V8 equipped with fuel-saving Active Fuel Management technology. With its standard StabiliTrak vehicle stability enhancement system Envoy helps keep a lateral skid from ruining your day. Any time it senses that your Envoy isn't following your desired path it steps in automatically to help restore control. Envoy is a remarkably comfortable place to be no matter what the weather. A dual-zone heating and air conditioning system is standard on all models. The SLT and Denali models take the all-season comfort concept even further with automatic climate control and heated leather-appointed front bucket seats. The result is a combination of strength and sophistication like nothing else in the mid-size SUV class. The 2008 GMC Envoy and Envoy Denali. Why settle for less than professional grade?
