The Savana is a giant leap forward in technology, performance and ease of use. It features powerful engines, strong rigid frame, easy-handling rack-and-pinion steering in 1500 models, and a front suspension that sets ride and handling standards for the entire segment.

If you intend to use your Savana cargo van for towing, we recommend the available Trailering Special Equipment Package. This package includes a weight distributing platform trailer hitch receiver and a 7-lead wiring harness and connector. Additional transmission oil cooling is included with the Duramax 6.6L Diesel, available with the 4.8L V8 and required with the 6.0L V8.
Two wheelbases provide two load floor lengths. The regular wheelbase models have a load floor length of over 3429 mm (10 feet) to the front seats. Long wheelbase models feature a long load floor length at over 3937 mm (12 feet). Select a regular or long wheelbase model based on your load floor length or volume requirements. Your cargo weight will determine the series and GVWR best suited to your business needs. GVWR’s from 3311 kg (7300 lb.) to 4355 kg (9600 lb.) can handle payloads up to 1881 kg (4147 lb.).
Regular wheelbase models offer optional swing-out cargo doors on the driver side for improved cargo-handling convenience.
