2003 GMC Savana 1500 reviews and buying guide.

2003 GMC Savana 1500

The GMC Savana comes in a whopping ten models. This translates into one thing: there is nothing that at least one of these full-size vans can't handle. The Savana 1500 passenger van is the smallest of the bunch, though it weighs in at a healthy half-ton. With eight-passenger seating and enough remaining space to load in whatever needs to be carried, the Savana 1500 is built for transportation.

The Savana 1500 is available in a regular 135-inch wheelbase length version only. The G1500 model features two-wheel, rear-wheel drive, while a brand new H1500 model comes with all-wheel drive. Also new for 2003 on the Savana are a host of upgrades, including cleaner engines, powertrain and safety enhancements and a smarter electrical system. As if that isn't enough, the Savana also features a newly designed front-end and a stronger underlying construction.

Under the Hood

The two-wheel drive G1500 comes with a Vortec 4.3-liter V6 engine with multi-port fuel injection, capable of 200 horsepower at 4400rpm and 250lb-ft of torque at 2800rpm. In addition to an all-wheel drive system with viscous-coupled transfer case for better traction control, the H1500 also features its own specialized engine. The heart pumping under its hood is a Vortec 5.3-liter V8 with 285 horsepower at 5200rpm and 325lb-ft of torque at 4000rpm. For G1500 owners who envy the power of the H1500 model, manufacturers have made the V8 an available option.

Because it will be called upon to carry precious cargo, the Savana is equipped with highly sophisticated brakes across all models. A four-wheel power disc, four-wheel antilock brake system with HydroBoost hydraulic-assist power-brake booster and GM's Dynamic Rear Proportioning ensures quicker stops and require less pedal force. Also addressing safety is a dual front, dual-level airbag system.

Standard Features, Options Packages and Style

The Savana's new look is achieved by a fresh front makeover. Bolder front-end styling, including grille, bumper, fascia, fenders and hood, distinguishes the 2003 model from its predecessors. In addition, the underlying structure improves occupant protection and crashworthiness, and reduces repair costs. In terms of comfort, both Savana 1500 models offer an improved heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system, integrated armrests, window and lock control switches and mirrors, durable 12-ounce carpeting and more.

For 2003 the OnStar system is an option available across all models. OnStar services include automatic notification of air bag deployment, stolen vehicle location, remote door unlock, emergency services dispatch, roadside assistance, remote diagnostics, route support, convenience services and OnStar Concierge, plus hands-free phone calls.

For eight-passenger transportation needs, the Savana 1500 has what it takes to get the job done.
