2016 GMC Savana 2500

The Savana is GMC's full-size van, the workhorse choice for hauling cargo or people, offered in both regular and extended lengths. It drives like the big van it is, with a tall seating position and a firm ride that's more about hauling than comfort. Inside, the cabin is basic and functional, with hard plastics and simple controls, but there's plenty of room up front. Cargo space is the Savana's reason to exist, with a huge, boxy rear area that swallows gear or can be fitted for passengers. The 2500 is the base Savana, built for buyers who need maximum cargo capacity without extras; step up to the 3500 if you need a higher payload. It uses a 4.8L I8 paired with a automatic transmission sending power to the rear wheels, which gives it enough grunt for heavy loads but not much else. Expect a no-frills interior with vinyl floors and manual windows, though a rearview camera was available as an option.
