Envoy was an automobile brand created by General Motors of Canada and used to sell badge engineered British built Vauxhall and Bedford vehicles on the Canadian market from 1959 to 1970.
[1] Introduced in 1959, the Envoy models differed from the Vauxhalls in terms of trim and equipment.
[4] Externally the Envoy FB resembled the European market Vauxhall VX4/90, but used Victor mechanicals and interior.
[4] The Envoy FB range again comprised Standard, Special & Custom Sedans and a Sherwood Station Wagon.
[1] After the 1970 model year the Envoy brand was replaced with the Chevrolet Vega at Chev-Olds dealers, while the HC Vauxhall Viva continued to be imported under the Firenza name until badge engineering returned with the Pontiac Astre, a Vega twin, becoming Canadian Pontiac-Buick dealers' small-car offering in 1973, two years before appearing in US showrooms.
