2000 GMC Envoy

Anyone who's followed the GMC Envoy will tell you that the pre and post-2001 models represent two different vehicles.  Not much changed for the midsize SUV in 2000 outside of a few minor mechanical adjustments.  The 2000 GMC Envoy comes in standard 4WD trim that sports a 4.3 L, 190 hp V6 engine with 4 speed automatic transmission.

Need standard features?  The 2000 GMC Envoy delivers plenty with air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, power/leather seats, cd player, and ABS brakes.  Sunroof comes as an option.  As for a couple other key stats, this SUV gets 16 mpg in the city, 20 mpg on the highway, and can tow 5600 lbs.  Finally, the 2000 Envoy has 4 doors and seats 5.

Overall, the critics agree that the 2000 GMC Envoy carried an outdated design in need of an update.  While the standard features make this SUV more appealing, they can't overcome a weak powertrain and occasionally rough handling.  If you need an Envoy with more juice and don't mind paying more for it, look for models from 2002 or later.
