We had a Safari van that we traded in for this vehicle. Children have grown up and we wanted to have a fun vehicle to drive. This is it. Drives like a cadillac, yet capable to haul and tow like our pickup, truly awesome..........Thank you G.M. for a great design.
Dogs love XUV's!!

Truly a unique design that could have been done a long time ago. Thanks GM for having the guts to bring a truck like this to market. So far it has execeeded my expectations. The doors close with a solid thunk, the engine is silent at idle (next to silent at crusing speed), and the engineering is first rate.

Outstanding vehicle that is unlike anything on the road today. Nicely designed interior (GM is close to getting rid of all the plastic), and the best looking SUV on the road today. The nickel accents and carbon metalic fitings look great with the leather. The retractable roof and dual rear openings are engineering marvels. Rides like a dream, with plenty of pickup in the V-6. Simply the best.

I bought this SUV for my wife whom has Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma ,and Endometriosis. I bought it for her comfort and the feel of safety. We looked at all of the others, She just was not satified with any of the others....The look and ride and feel on the road of the Envoy put a great big smile on her face and we can travel more now because of the GMC Envoy the ride and comfort and the feel of power and the the feel of safety .....We can go anywhere.

We have the v8 GMC Envoy XUV. This vehicle gives us the luxary of having a vehicle that can be a pick up truck as well as being a luxary SUV. The best of both worlds. The V8 gives you plenty of get up and go.

This car has some cool features, but it also has some problems. The all terrain cargo area with power midgate is fabulous -especially for keeping pets out of the "people" area of the car. However, please note that in the commercials, they speed up the video when they show the roof opening. It actually takes about a minute. There is also a HUGE blindspot through most of the rear of the car, it is very hard to see smaller vehicles behind you, and nearly impossible to back up.

I have never bought an American vehicle because of reliability concerns. Not only did I take a leap with a GMC, but I bought a first year feature - the retractable roof. I have logged 1500 miles with absolutely nothing to complain about yet. I am very happy with the construction and performance. I have not had to take it back to the dealer for any of the normal construction tweaks. So far, so good!

I drove a Chev. Suburban for 12 years and recently bought a GMC XUV. The ride is better than the Suburban, the noise is lower, the economy is higher, and the versatility is comparable. I have experienced 17mpg city and 24 mpg hwy. This, so far, has been a great experience. The in line 6 engine doesn't have quite the power that I am used to, but I am extremely satisfied overall. I just wish they would air more commercials to let people really see the versatility of this machine. I didb't realize that the cargo area can be rinsed out with a hose or washed at the local car wash. Just a great all around vehicle!
A Great SUV

A have been very pleased with my new Envoy XUV. Of course, the retractable roof is very innovative and helpful for carrying tall items like the tree I bought from my local nursery. But I really like the surprisingly precise handling and strong acceleration from a good sized SUV. My Envoy has a comfortable interior, with leather seats, and cool features like OnStar and XM radio (it's addictive). Most importantly, at the six month mark, I have had not had to visit the dealership for anything; the vehicle has performed without any problems.

I really like the functionality of the rear cargo area. I have made many trips to the home improvement stores lately and having the roof be able to open to store large items has been great. The workers at the store all marvel at what you can fit inside. Once everything is unloaded the compartment can be hosed out. I have carried trees, mulch, appliances, water ski equipment and other various things all without a problem.
Excellent combination of features

The XUV meets all of my criteria. It's a 5 person hauler, a loaded up luxary vehicle, and the perfect vehicle for dirt, tools, or the occasional trip to IKEA. I sold a truck and car and combined them into this vehicle. It's very comfortable with all the options, including the V8.

Having a 120# St.Bernard puppy and he's still growing, the rear cargo is a great area for him. He can get as dirty as he wants and it cleans up easy. Also a great are when buying or moving large items. The mid window is a great idea from keeping dirt from the rear cargo area from getting into the main seating area.

Envoy XUV, I have a v-8, great power, nice ride. The retractable roof has come in handy many times, Especially with my bikes. I have been very happy so far. We shall see what happens down the road.

Super vehicle. Love the mix of luxury in the front seating area combined with the truck-like rear compartment. Best of both worlds. Got the SLT/V-8 with all the options except the navigation system. Very nice ride, handles very well. Good power w/V-8. Drives more like a car than a truck which surprised me due to the size and weight. Great for our dogs and easy to clean up after them. Very quiet with the mid glass up. Only complaint is that you can't leave the top open and the rear window closed. That would work best for the dogs to give them air and still be enclosed. Lots of neat programable features. Takes lots of time to program the car to remember all of your settings for two drivers.

We rented a Mitsubishi SUV for a weekend and we loved it. Two weeks later we just went car looking, with no intentions of buying. We came across the Envoy and fell in love with it after a test drive. We bought it and have had it 3 weeks. This is more vehicle than we expected to buy and we got a great deal on it. My husband wanted a truck and I wanted a car. Well, we got both all in one. It has everything you need in a vehicle.

I love my XUV. I have the V8, and fuel mileage gets better with age. If you want mileage, buy a wimpy import. The navagation is great, but make sure you know where you are going because it will get you there, but sometimes not the fastest way. The radio w/XM is great. What can I say about the roof? You can fit everything! I cant wait for the snow!

My XUV is a very versitile vehicle. I love it for hauling dogs, tall cargo like trees from the nursury and other big or dirty stuff in the back cargo area. The passenger compartment is first class and comfortable. I love the automatic windshield wipers. I have the V8 version which has plenty of pick up and really goes. I think the fuel mileage is very good for the size of the engine and vehicle. I really will never have another vehicle without OnStar. When my lease is up I am going to get another just like it.

Extremely versatile vehicle. I needed something that could double as a pickup truck, carry 5 passengers and still have the option of leaving open the rear area like a pickup. Large items can be placed in rear with moderate ease, and still be able to tow a reasonable Gross Vehicular Weight. Very comfortable drive but slightly underpowered with the V6 engine. When towing the V8 would be my choice now. Overall I can't think of another vehicle that would fit the need.

I've driven this truck for nearly 3 years and love almost everything about it. It' the most versatile SUV on the planet. Whether it's taking my dogs to the beach, pulling a 7000-lb. boat, taking Boy Scouts on a campout, going skiing through feet of new snow, taking recycling to the dump or anything else, nothing handles it like the XUV. I got the V8 4x4 with air suspension, navigation, sunroof, heated seats, Bose, etc. Very comfortable, very reliable, gas mileage improves with age, retractable roof and a midgate with electric window (the way the Avalanche midgate should be!) allow for incredible shifts in function. Can't understand why GMC only made it the one year.

This is a great vehicle. Smooth riding and not too bad on the gas.17.5mpg average for 3 years. The only problems I've had have bee electrical and they have all been fixed with a minimum of time and under warenty. When you open the sunroof and put down the windows and rear top it feels like a convertible.
Awesome

OK, so this car was like my first car and it's so awesome! At first I thought since it was kind of big, and clunky, and costs a fortune to put gas in, (which it does), that it was going to be horrible. But, its so fun! I love how I can fit all of my friends in there, and just go out for a night on the town!! Its amazing! (I dont recommend it for older people though). But yea. Ive had it 4 6 months now and its been like a friend to me. The seats are comfortable, it rides smooth, and its gorgeous. And after my parents kicked me out of the house, I had to live in my car for like about a month, and its so comfortable to sleep in. I love this car!
Love My XUV!

I love everything about the Envoy XUV. It's extremely dependable both for performance and comfort My friends also say how comfortable it is to ride in and drive. I have a 2004 model and have never had 1 problem with it! And I have about 65,000 miles on it.
Pretty Cool

Very well equipped vehicle. I love the handling as well as the comfort of the ride. Seats five comfortably with room to spare. The only downfall is wheel bearing and ball joint problems. Underpowered and my full size pickup with a V8 gets better fuel economy.
A gem with a fatal flaw :-(

This is a very well appointed vehicle but I believe the programmer who designed the rear technology for this vehicle suffered from delusions of grandeur. The roof mechanism and tailgate/ glass components are fatally integrated and when one goes bad it renders the other useless. When that happens an incessant dinging alarm sounds continuously while the vehicle is moving making it annoying to drive. Unfortunately, most of the websites that offer any clues on how to fix these things haven't been visited by anyone who can help you since 2014. Even the dealership service department doesn't have any answers without paying whatever they charge to troubleshoot the problem.

I've owner this great SUV with very little repairs. This year two sensors went. Everything else is basic care. Love the double hatch opening and the ability to carry big objects vertical or horizontal.

This is the quitest SUV I have ever driven. Even with the rear glass down and the roof retracted there was no increase in road noise. The ride is a little soft but it takes bumps and pot holes very well. I had no trouble picking up a new dryer in it's box. Just retracted the roof and instant pickup bed. The straight six with 225 HP has plenty of power. Make sure you get the optional Driver Information System with steering wheel controls. I got 16 MPG on my third tank of gas (in 2WD HI range).
