Gmc envoy xuv retractable roof.

It gets epa estimated 16 17 mpg combined. Gm does not break out gmc envoy xuv sales numbers. It had a retractable roof over what should ve been its cargo area which let drivers carry tall objects normally restricted by an suv s ceiling. The gmc envoy xuv was essentially a regular long wheelbase envoy with a retractable roof that allowed you to use the vehicle kind of like a truck.

The tailgate swung to the side or folded down not unlike the honda ridgeline. It wasn t a dream. The envoy xuv s retractable roof was reminiscent of the studebaker wagonaire of the 1960s while other features such as the midgate were similar to those of the gmc terracross concept suv. Offered for only two years the gmc envoy xuv afforded owners an amazing amount of cargo hauling flexibility along with a slightly awkward profile.

The side windows stayed in place when the power retractable roof slid up into the front of the vehicle s roof. The envoy xuv s most compelling feature is a retractable rear roof a convenience that was available in the early 1960s on the studebaker wagonaire station wagon. The retractable roof is in the open position on my 2004 gmc suv and will not close using the internal overhead roof switch or the tailgate key switch roof closing owners manual instructions. Envoy xuv sales projected at 30 000 per year approximately a third of envoy production were much slower with just over 12 000 sold in 2004.

Last month jim bunnell pontiac gmc s marketing general manager said the automaker was nearing a decision on the xuv s future because of poor sales. I have disconnected the battery removed the rear roof motor and the electronic. The base sticker of the 2005 envoy xuv is 30 465 including the destination charge. But while the avalanche at least had cool styling the envoy xuv looked like a normal envoy wearing a backpack.

Hi cam i have removed the sliding rear roof from my gmc envoy xuv. Envoy xuv misses the mark the all new 2004 gmc envoy xuv. The gmc envoy xuv is an suv.
