The 2021 GX Essence model is a great ride. I don't agree with Edmunds review that the cabin is noises. The only potential issue is seat size. It is not suitable for a large man. I get 28 mpg city, the dash panel is very intuitive and the Essence model has a turbo charged engine and 9 speed transmission, loaded with features too!

After my own problems and reading about others, I wouldn't suggest buying another car made in Korea… Since I’ve bought it, I’ve had it in the shop for more than a couple of months out of the three I’ve had it for the same issues. Driving it down the road, it’ll suddenly lose, gain or sporadic up and down power where it can either accelerate on it’s on or slowdown. It makes it nearly impossible to drive and get it to safety and keeps throwing codes about TCM’s and Speed Sensors, etc…

The car drives and handles wonderful lots of safety features But the 9 speed cvt is lacking in performance, buick customer service is terrible have had engine light on for two weeks and they tell me to drive it like that as they have no service dates available for weeks to look at it (Been in twice)

I should have known I was making a mistake BUT.... the opening into the car.is a little difficult for older people, the car is just a little too snug in width, vision is not adequate from rear, the cargo space is too small. The car is pretty but I was consumed with NEW car. My fault for not being a wise shopper!
