GMC Savana – the collective page of the full-size van, twin to the Chevrolet Express: V8 engines of 4,807 to 6,588 cm³, 2,416 to 2,960 kg unladen
This collective page gathers the GMC Savana, the sister model to the Chevrolet Express built within the GM group since 1996. Both vans share their platform, body and engine line-up and differ essentially in grille and trim details; the Savana is built at the Wentzville, Missouri and Ontario plants, offered in standard and extended-length form, and also serves as the base for motorhome and camper conversions such as the Explorer and Majestic.

The register lists 15 versions with 180 kW, displacements from 4,807 to 6,588 cm³ from eight-cylinder engines throughout, unladen weights from 2,416 to 2,960 kg and gross weights from 3,221 to 3,900 kg; lengths lie between 5,500 and 5,690 mm, widths between 1,960 and 2,450 mm.
Alongside the Ford E-Series and the Ram ProMaster, the Savana is among the last classic body-on-frame full-size vans on the North American market, used above all as the base for trade, fleet and camper conversions; its large-capacity V8 engines provide high towing and payload capacity.
On a used Savana, rust on the frame and sliding-door tracks, the mileage and oil consumption of the V8 engine, the condition of the automatic transmission, and on converted camper versions the build quality and seal of the conversion all count; parts run through the broad GM dealer network in North America.
