2018 GMC Savana LT

The Savana is GMC's full-size van, a workhorse built for hauling people or cargo in a straightforward, no-frills package. It drives like a proper full-size van: a commanding view over traffic, a firm ride, and steering that's direct but not sporty. The cabin is utilitarian, with hard plastics and simple controls, but it's roomy and easy to clean, which is what a work van should be. You can get it as a cargo van, a passenger van, or a cutaway chassis for upfitting, so it adapts to almost any job. The LT adds power windows and locks, cruise control, and a nicer cloth interior over the base Work Van, making it the pick if you'll spend long days behind the wheel. Its 6.0L I8 makes 276 horsepower and 298 lb-ft of torque, routed through a eight-speed automatic to the rear wheels, which gives it enough grunt to merge onto the highway fully loaded. The LT can be ordered with rear air conditioning and an upgraded audio system, two options that make a real difference when the van is full of passengers.
