The 2024 GMC Savana Cargo Van starts with a standard 4.3L V6 engine that delivers 276 horsepower and 298 lb-ft of torque. If you need even more power, an available 6.6L V8 engine is offered for increased towing and payload capacity.

The Savana can tow up to 7,400 lbs-that's more than competing cargo vans. Features like Tow/Haul Mode optimize gear shifts when you're under heavy load, and the Eaton Automatic Locking Rear Differential improves traction. StabiliTrak stability control and Hill Start Assist help you maintain control and confidence on any terrain.
