- Distinctive styling, segment-leading refinement and superior V-8 power - these professional grade traits of GMC's premium Denali nameplate are the hallmarks of the new Envoy Denali and Envoy XL Denali midsize SUVs.

GMC announced the 2005 Envoy Denali and Envoy XL Denali at the Chicago Auto Show. They will join the luxury and performance-oriented family of Denali vehicles, which includes the Yukon Denali, Yukon XL Denali, Sierra Denali and the new 2005 Sierra Crew Cab Denali. Marking the fourth introduction to the Envoy family lineup in as many years, the Envoy Denali and Envoy XL Denali round out the offerings by further enhancing the Envoy's already exceptional levels of comfort, amenities and proven power.

"The Denali name has become synonymous with style, comfort and performance and the Envoy Denali and Envoy XL Denali bring those desirable attributes to the midsize utility segment," said Jim Bunnell, Pontiac-GMC general manager. "And they provide the capability you expect from a GMC."

A billet metal-look, chrome-plated grille instantly identifies these new, premium midsize utilities. Similar styling cues separated the original Yukon Denali from other full-size SUV competitors, helping push the Denali to almost 30 percent of Yukon and Yukon XL sales.

In addition to the iconic grille design, the Envoy Denali and Envoy XL Denali feature new front and rear fascias, integrated, body-color running boards, body-color accents and 17-inch polished forged aluminum wheels. Inside, a host of high-quality leather, burl wood grain trim and satin metallic accents work harmoniously to maintain the Denali promise of uncompromising refinement.

Powering the Envoy Denali and Envoy XL Denali is the robust Vortec 5300 V-8. Rated at an estimated 290 horsepower and 325 lb.-ft. of torque, the engine delivers excellent step-off acceleration and a broad torque range that gives the vehicles segment-leading towing capability - up to 7,100 pounds in the Envoy XL Denali.

Later in 2005 Envoy XL Denali will be equipped with Displacement on Demand (DOD), a fuel-saving feature that uses a sophisticated program to shut down four of the eight cylinders in certain driving conditions. Fuel savings of up to 8 percent are possible, depending on driving style and load conditions.
