The 2001 GMC Safari is a part of the model's second and final generation. With a body-on-frame construction, it confidently boasts the toughness of a truck while offering the space and versatility of a minivan. It features a 4.3L V6 engine that produces 190 horsepower coupled with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Both rear-wheel (RWD) and all-wheel drive (AWD) are available. In terms of technology, it has a fairly simple interior design consistent with vehicles made in the early 2000s. Safety equipment includes ABS and daytime running lights. However, the 2001 Safari does not offer side-impact airbags. While the GMC Safari ended production in 2005, its durable design and hospitable interior still hold appeal for those looking for a tough and reliable family vehicle.
