GMC Typhoon (model key 1017 in this catalogue) is recorded with 1 generation and 1 version. Production of the listed generation starts on 1991-01-01 and ends on 1993-12-31. The body type for that generation is SUV 3-doors.

There is no second generation, no restyling generation, and no extra body style in the data. The only named version is 4.3 AT. Every figure below is taken from that version’s record. Where a field is empty in the source, it is written as not measured.

The Typhoon’s identity in this catalogue is therefore narrow and specific: one generation, one three-door SUV body, one powertrain. Readers looking up GMC Typhoon specs, engine, mpg, dimensions, or reliability will find one complete specification set rather than a family of trims.

Generations

1 generation (1991–1993)

1 generation of the GMC Typhoon ran from 1991-01-01 to 1993-12-31. The body is SUV 3-doors. The generation contains 1 version: 4.3 AT. No restyling is listed inside this generation, so the same years, body, and version apply for the whole production window.

The version 4.3 AT itself carries the same start and stop dates as the generation: 1991-01-01 to 1993-12-31. That means the catalogue does not split early and late cars by a different modification name.

Specific output from the listed numbers: 280 hp from 4300 cm³ is about 65.1 hp per litre (280 ÷ 4.3). Torque per litre is about 110.5 Nm per litre (475 ÷ 4.3). Power-to-weight on kerb mass 1724 kg is about 162.4 hp per tonne (280 ÷ 1.724). Torque-to-weight is about 275.5 Nm per tonne (475 ÷ 1.724). These ratios use only the catalogue figures for 4.3 AT.

Performance and economy

Acceleration 0–100 for 4.3 AT is 7.3 seconds. Top speed is 214 km/h.

Fuel consumption city for 4.3 AT is not measured. Fuel consumption highway is not measured. Combined (mixed) fuel consumption is not measured. CO2 is not measured. Eco class is not measured.

Because mpg and l/100 km are not measured in this dataset, any search for GMC Typhoon mpg, fuel economy, or emissions cannot be answered with a catalogue number. The measured performance figures that are present remain 7.3 seconds to 100 km/h and 214 km/h top speed on 4.3 AT.

The fuel tank on 4.3 AT is 76 litres. Without a measured consumption figure, range cannot be calculated from this catalogue.

Dimensions and weight

Kerb weight of 4.3 AT is 1724 kg. Gross vehicle weight is not measured. Ground clearance is 180 mm. Fuel tank: 76 litres. Wheel sizes are not measured.

Front suspension: Independent, torsion. Rear suspension: Dependent, leaf spring. Front brakes: Ventilated disc. Rear brakes: Drum.

With gross weight not measured, payload is not measured. With wheel size not measured, tyre diameter and offset are not measured. Ground clearance 180 mm is the only listed ride-height figure for 4.3 AT.

Chassis, brakes, and layout (specs people search)

The GMC Typhoon 4.3 AT places the engine Front, longitudinal and sends drive through AWD. That combination is the only drivetrain in the data.

Braking is mixed: Ventilated disc at the front and Drum at the rear. Suspension is mixed as well: Independent, torsion in front and Dependent, leaf spring at the rear. These labels are taken from the English fields in the source; they are not rewritten.

Reliability and common problems are not measured in this dataset. There is no failure-rate, recall, or service-interval number in the supplied record. A search for GMC Typhoon problems or reliability therefore has no catalogue statistic to quote. What the catalogue does fix is the hardware set: Gasoline Turbo 6-cylinder V-shaped engine, Automatic 4-speed, AWD, SUV 3-doors, kerb 1724 kg, clearance 180 mm.

Which version to choose

There is only one version: 4.3 AT. There is no second row to compare on horsepower, torque, gearbox, or drive.

4.3 AT is the GMC Typhoon with 280 hp at 6000 rpm, 475 Nm at 3600 rpm, 4300 cm³, Gasoline, 6 cylinders, V-shaped, Turbo, Automatic 4 gears, and AWD. Performance that is measured: 7.3 s to 100 km/h and 214 km/h. Economy, CO2, eco class, gross weight, and wheels: not measured. Tank 76 litres, kerb 1724 kg, clearance 180 mm. Production of this version: 1991-01-01 to 1993-12-31, body SUV 3-doors.

If a buyer is matching a car to this catalogue, the name to look for is exactly 4.3 AT. There is no second 4.3 AT with a different horsepower in this model’s data, so the 280 hp figure is the only power rating attached to that name.
