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!

Research everything in and out of its class, and this beat them all. Has everything I could want without being overblown, its userfriendly and functional in all aspects.

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.
