2024 GMC Savana 3500

The Savana is GMC's full-size work van, the one you see in contractor fleets and shuttle services, built to haul people or cargo day in and day out. It drives like the commercial vehicle it is, with a truck-like ride and a steering feel that's honest and direct, so you always know what the front wheels are doing. Inside, the cabin is plain and functional, with hard plastics and simple controls, but the seats are comfortable for long shifts and visibility out the big windshield is excellent. Cargo space is the whole point here, with a tall, boxy body that swallows pallets and equipment, and you can get it as a cargo van, passenger van, or cutaway for upfitting. The 3500 is the heavy-duty Savana for buyers who need maximum payload and towing, stepping up from the 2500 with a stronger chassis and higher GVWR. It's powered by a 6.6L I8 paired with an automatic transmission, which gives it the grunt to haul heavy loads all day, though fuel economy is predictably poor.
