Year to Year Changes
1991 GMC Envoy:
A 4-door version debuted in spring of 1990 as a '91 model, on a longer wheelbase that promised a better ride. Manual shift now was standard; automatic transmission optional. A revised fuel injection and air-cleaner system was supposed to improve engine starting.
1992 GMC Envoy:
A more potent High-Performance V6 engine became available, delivering 200 horsepower. The sport-utility's S15 prefix was dropped, leaving only the Jimmy designation. A high-performance, limited-edition Typhoon 4-door model held a 280-horsepower turbocharged V6 engine, and came with permanently engaged 4-wheel drive. 4WD models could now have an electronic-shift transfer case, operated by a dashboard button. Antilock braking now was standard on all models and the speedometer was revised.
1993 GMC Envoy:
A new SLT trim level became available for 2-doors, while the 4-door SLS adopted a monochromatic look, with body-color grille and wheels. The basic V6 gained 5 horsepower. Both engines got a balance shaft to reduce vibration.
1994 GMC Envoy:
New safety features included side door guard beams and a center high-mounted stoplamp. The high-performance Typhoon was dropped.
