The 1996 GMC Jimmy falls into the second-generation of the brand's popular compact SUV lineup. It comes with a 4.3L V6 engine that produces 190 horsepower paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. It offers both rear-wheel and four-wheel drive options. This model was available in four trims: the base, SLS, SLE, and high-end SLT. For tech, it includes a basic AM/FM radio, and the higher trims had the option for a more advanced stereo with a CD Player. Several 1996 models included safety features like anti-lock brakes, and some trims came with optional driver and passenger airbags - a fairly significant feature considering the era of this vehicle.
