The 2005 GMC Envoy XUV is part of the second-generation Envoy lineup, offering a unique blend of SUV and pickup truck with its retractable rear roof over the cargo area. Engine options include a 275-hp 4.2L inline-six and a 300-hp 5.3L V8. Both engines are mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission, with optional 4WD. This model comes in two trims: SLE and SLT, the latter featuring leather seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a six-disc CD changer. All models include standard safety features such as ABS, dual front airbags, and stability control. Unfortunately, the XUV, with its unique design and features like a power sliding rear roof and 'Midgate' divider, didn't resonate with enough buyers and was discontinued after 2005.
