It wasn't too long ago that cars didn't have interiors this luxurious: Seats are trimmed in supple two-tone leather, the steering wheel and shifter accorded similar treatment. The driver's seat has multiple power adjustments, with power lumbar and heated surfaces on both front seats. Genuine Zebrano wood graces the console and door trim. Large, easy to use controls are angled toward the driver. Delco Bose audio is standard, complete with special speakers mounted in the doors and a six-CD changer in the console. A welcome change is the new small-hubbed steering wheel. A mini-pack airbag improves the appearance as well as the view of the instrument panel.Power equipment abounds in the Envoy. The windows and locks are powered, and remote locking is standard. So are power mirrors, not only adjusting the view but also folding in for tight parking spots and carwashes. All glass aft of the B-pillar is tinted, and not only is the inside rear view mirror electrochromatic, so are both outside mirrors. Climate control is the set-and-forget type; dial up a temperature and the computer-controlled system maintains fan speed and directs the air to where it's needed. An overhead mini-console includes HomeLink, a trip computer and compass. A rear wiper is standard and includes a wet-arm washer. Also out back is an air compressor outlet for inflating everything from flat tires to soccer balls. The rear hatch can be opened completely, or the rear glass only opened.
