Trade in: the 2002 GMC Envoy
No 2002 GMC Envoy is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. This page sets out the 2002 GMC Envoy for buyers, in plain words.
Recalls and complaints
There are 15 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Engine and fuel
Power: the 4.2L 6-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
A combined rating of 14.7 L/100 km works out to about 44 litres per 300 km. That works out to about $22.79 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Space, size and seats
The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
Best uses
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Rent it for a week first
If the Envoy is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Try the Envoy on your commute, then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Envoy answers the big questions.
The cost of driving it
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $227.90 at our price setting. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
Year and trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
