I have owned other mid-size and smaller SUV's and this one is as good or better than those that cost almost twice as much. I made riding in my Rav4 or CRV seem like I was in a tractor. Typical smooth Buick ride with all the techno upgrades. We have 3 smaller grandchildren and we all love it!!!

Great Value for the features included

2017 Buick Envision Preferred 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl 6A)

I recently purchased the Envision with the Preferred Package. I was looking for a mid-size SUV to go along with the small SUV I purchased a few months ago. The dealership I went to had over $12, 300 in incentives. With my trade in, I was able to upgrade from a 2014 Lincoln MKZ to the Envision. The technology available is the best I've ever had with a vehicle. The ride is classic Buick, smooth and comfortable. I would recommend to anyone considering a mid-size SUV.

Apple CarPlay A REAL Plus

I traded-in my Lexus NX ... loved the performance ... but CarPlay was not available with aftermarket radios or in a new Lexus (but hear it is ‘coming soon’ to at least some models). Having CarPlay in the Buick has already (in just the first 2 days) saved on highway toll charges and got me quickly to my destination in a new development 30 miles from home. I would have eventually gotten to the same location but it would have been a LOT harder to find with the built-in navigation. The Buick handling, ride and performance -- comparable to the NX ... has been terrific. Drove it from VA to FL for a 45 day vacation. Performance was excellent and gas mileage on the long stretches was amazing. Coming back I was getting 540 mile range after a fill-up vas normally 410-430 city driving.

We wouldn't buy another one.

We bought the 2017 Buick Envision new for around $45,000. I have only 11,000 miles on it and my tires need replaced for winter! I was told at the dealership when we had it inspected that Buick puts a lower grade tires on them! My friend owns the Encore and she has the same issue with her tires. Plus the AC in the back quit working after a few months. The biggest issue is that the Dealerships can't get parts for these cars! We had a accident with it and it took a little over 3 months to get parts because the parts come from China! The latest thing is that my dashboard lights are going out while I'm driving it! I also don't care for the engine shutting down every time I stop. I loved my Buick at first but I would never ever buy another one.

Hot Buick SUV

2017 Buick Envision Premium II 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
13 of 15 people found this review helpful

This SUV with Turbo and All Wheel Drive is almost as much fun to drive as my 2015 Regal GS. Handles superb for a 3000 pound plus SUV. This is very nicely appointed vehicle. I like the hands free tailgate operation for when your arms are full of packages or what ever. This vehicle is very quiet at highway speeds. The Bose stereo system is outstanding.
