GMC Savana – the full-size van from General Motors' truck brand: V8 engines from 4.8 to 6.6 litres, 184 to 231 kW, gross weights up to 4.4 tonnes in passenger and cargo form
The Savana is GMC's full-size van, since 1996 the technical twin of the Chevrolet Express and successor to the GMC Vandura; both ranges share a platform and are built at the same plant in Wentzville, Missouri. The G1500, G2500 and G3500 designations denote payload class under the US half-ton naming scheme, while EXT. marks the extended-wheelbase version.

The register lists 13 versions with eight-cylinder engines from 184 to 231 kW and 4,807 to 6,600 cm³, kerb weights from 2,177 to 3,180 kg, gross vehicle weights from 3,500 to 4,355 kg, lengths from 5,645 to 6,230 mm and widths from 1,890 to 2,120 mm.
As a classic full-size van, the Savana serves the US market as a tradesman's and fleet vehicle, a passenger minibus, and the basis for camper and wheelchair-accessible conversions by body builders such as Starcraft; its main rivals are the Ford E-Series and the Ram ProMaster, and it holds most firmly to the traditional ladder-frame, rear-wheel-drive layout.
When buying used, check spark plugs and ignition coils on the V8 engines, transmission and transfer-case fluid on AWD versions, corrosion at the frame and brake lines, and on converted vehicles the quality of any body cutouts. Parts are well supported through the broad GM dealer network in North America and the independent market.
