Love my Avenir Envision
I bought it June 1st and waited until I drove for a few months(8,000 miles). I did a lot of research or Luxury SUV's. None came close to the Price $46,000 fully loaded and gas milage 30 MPG on the road 25 combined, using Regular 87 Octane gas, nearly all required Premium gas and could only get in the mid 20's MPG. The standard features are fantastic! Many of the other Luxury manufactures charge for the standard options of the Buick. The only option I could get on this was folding mirrors, but I could live with out that because everything else was so amazing. I have an AWD model and I love that it is selectable to save on gas. I took a road trip this Summer hand was amazed that I could get 31 MPG averaging 85 MPH from Holbrook AZ - Kingman AZ and on my return trip averaged 32 MPG from Kingman -Holbrook at and average of 75 MPH. The only negative I have is when it connects to your phone in Apply Car Play is kicks you out of your local radio station and selects the last audio option you were using on your phone, again just a minor irritation. It is also a very unique vehicle, locally I have only seen 3 others driving around town. On my road trip from New Mexico to California I only saw 2 on my entire trip. I really love not see many around, but when the word get's out more people may be getting them, if defiantly is the best bag for your buck in the Midsize Luxury SUV catagory and I looked at Porsche, Mercedes, Audi, Volvo, Lexus, Acura, and BMW none even came close to the amount of options, standard features and gas milage.

Transmission failure at 3929 miles
I loved the car for 3 months - bought it new with 86 miles on it. At 3929 miles it died on the road - diagnosis was transmission failure - after 50 days in shop and 6 different tries - dealer service center manager flew an engineer from GM Detroit to repair vehicle. Car operable until 5900 miles when fuel pump failed. Car in shop 99 days waiting on fuel pump from China. GM has finally decided to replace vehicle - since no luck getting parts needed to repair. These cars are made in China and all parts are also only available from China. Buyer Beware - I was told by GM there are 1820 plus Envisions waiting on a fuel pump replacement - wonder why fuel pumps fail on cars less than 1 year old ? My first new car purchase - such a disappointment- and Dealer and GM not really willing to help until Lemon Law attorney got involved.

Have Envision, will travel
I upsized from a Buick Encore. Wow, it's the best car I ever owned. Cinnabon Red, Essence model, SunRoof (didn't want, but choices were few). I drove 100 miles to get a different Envision, I was going to 'settle' on a color I didn't want. This one came off the truck and I claimed it. I have 10,000 miles on it in easy Hiway driving. Like this car so much. Big enough to put a 55" TV in it to bring to my home. Wife has the Enclave, which is like driving a big house around town. I agree this Envision is peppy, fuel-saving, comfortable, kinda quiet, and has many features of modern cars like Apple Car Play. It took a while to get used to the new style shift lever/button/thingys. I don't mind the auto-stop at all (some people don't like that feature). Heated seats, 2-person position auto power car seats. But I do wish it had the garage door opener feature in the roof. I have to dangle my opener from the window shade. Kinda cheapens it, you know?

Taco Red
Nice interior, fake wood trim too glossy; reflects glare when sun hits it. Temperature control cumbersome to adjust. 2.5 liter engine peppy, but can take time to accelerate hard if not in torque band. Power lift gate awesome, including kick action if hands full. Very nice SUV. Fit and finish are excellent. I got cargo pull-shade cover, roof racks and rain guards for windows. Drives very well and is comfortable.

Great luxury and value.
Purchased Avenir trim in May, 2021. Rich garnett metallic exterior with black leather interior. A real head turner. Quiet, smooth ride, and good performance. Plenty of room and comfortable.. Have 4WD and panoramic moonroof. Dash, instruments and technology top notch. Aerial view parking camera is great feature. Massaging seat very nice. Wife loves the car. Glad we purchased before the chip shortage. Received factory incentives and other discounts. Excellent luxury and value.
