Le véhicule à tout faire de GM

Par Éric Descarries

Le GMC Envoy est un autre de ces utilitaires qui utilisent la plateforme GMT 360 de General Motors. Sur cette même base, on retrouve les Chevrolet TrailBlazer et TrailBlazer EXT, les Oldsmobile Bravada, les Isuzu Ascender et les nouveaux Buick Rainier.

Carrosserie

L'Envoy est très différent des autres utilitaires GM par son apparence extérieure. Et de nombreux amateurs le préfèrent pour son allure un peu plus robuste. Par contre, gardez l'œil ouvert pour la version XUV qui fera son entrée sur le marché au printemps 2003. La XUV est une Envoy XL dont la deuxième partie du toit s'ouvre par commande électrique.

Mécanique

En termes de mécanique, soulignons l'arrivée du moteur V8 Vortec de 5,3 litres en équipement facultatif sur ce modèle. Ce moteur est construit pour tirer une roulotte. En conduite régulière, le six-cylindres de 4,2 litres offert de série suffira largement.

Habitacle

Personnellement, je trouve l'intérieur de l'Envoy plus raffiné que celui des autres utilitaires GM, ne serait-ce que par les cercles chromés entourant l'instrumentation. Comme pour le TrailBlazer, l'Envoy est offert en version allongée XL et peut alors accueillir sept passagers à son bord grâce à la troisième banquette. Pour ce qui est du XUV, on trouve, derrière la banquette centrale, une partition amovible comme sur l'Avalanche de Chevrolet. La lunette peut s'abaisser électriquement et, une fois rabattue, on obtient une caisse de camionnette très utile. Si l'on doit transporter des objets salissants, on n'a qu'à relever la partition et sa lunette (tous deux étanches) et laver le compartiment à grande eau. De petits drains ont été prévus à cet effet. Enfin, l'Envoy XUV possède une portière arrière qui peut s'ouvrir par la gauche ou se rabattre comme on le faisait avec les familiales d'autrefois. On reconnaîtra la XUV à son arrière légèrement différent.
