One Sweet Ride

2022 Buick Envision Avenir 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 9A)

I was planning on buying the BMW X3 until I test rode the Buick Envision. I test drove both and felt that both cars drove equally as well, but the Envision has a more elegant, streamlined shape. The interior is very posh and luxurious as well, with lots of soft touch padding. You also get more bells and whistles for thousands of dollars less. I purchased an Avenir model 5 months ago (9/2022) and have nothing but praise for it. It drives smoothly and comfortably and is very quiet. No highway noise seeps through the cabin. I find the soft leather seats to be very comfortable, even on long trips. The car has plenty of power and accelerates quickly. The 10.2 inch HD screen is super clear and I like the fact that it is integrated into the dash unlike many other cars that have it sitting on top of the dash like an awkwardly placed tablet. I appreciate that it has a switch to deactivate the auto stop/start feature, but wish it would not default to being on every time I start the car. I have trained myself to push the switch evertime I start the car. I find the cargo space to be adequate for my needs and probably meets the needs of most people. The back seats offer ample amount of room for my two teenage sons. Again, I am very happy with the car and would purchase it again if I had to do it all over.

Transmission failure at 3929 miles

2021 Buick Envision Preferred 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 9A)

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.

My Avenir

2021 Buick Envision Avenir 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 9A)

Just purchased this wonderful midnight moon blue Envision Avenir 3 weeks ago. It has the whisper beige interior which I love. The small SUV is so Buick. Rides like a dream. So quiet. Many Avenir tech features. Get ready to learn if this is your first technological featured vehicle. Very easy. Looked at all trim levels. Avenir is the best! Did not go with AWD. Didn't feel living in Florida was necessary but is another feature Everything is at eye level. HUD for the first time is terrific. Love the high definition rear view mirror camera! Only option not offered is power folding side mirrors. Odd. Had it on my last vehicle and truly missed. Love the toggle lift up and push down gears on console. Spacious. Excellent interior trim in my opinion; not overboard. Has many luxury features without the price tag. Don't let the inline turbo 4 cylinder fool you. Great gas mileage so far and plenty of power. Take a look and consider Buick! You will not be disappointed. 100% made in China and imported to US. Odd again but not your father's Buick.

WOW!

2022 Buick Envision Essence 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 9A)

Buick got it right with this one...We ended up buying the ST model, it rides a little rougher than those without low profile tires but still a good ride with sporty look. The Envision is not extremely fast but does have plenty of Gitty up and go and corners well for an SUV. The transmission is awesome shifts very smooth, we done 80 mph through the mountains and the RPMs remained the same as on flat ground. I feel like this thing is very roomie in the seats, I'm 6'0" and feel very comfortable in the front and back seats Cargo area is a little small but I feel there is enough room for 4 people to take a week vacation. The screen is user friendly, has a very clear picture, and I personally love the way it is turned just a little to the driver and still poses no problem for front passenger to operate. When I look at the Buick Envision, I see one of the best-looking SUVs on the road. When I sit in it, I feel the quality. When I drive it, I feel the luxury. I could go on and on about this vehicle. If a 4-person Luxury SUV is what you are looking for I would encourage you to try this one out.... Awesome Job Buick!

Next Generation Envision

Purchased a 2021 Envision for my daughter. Preferred trim in Summit White with the Sport Touring Package and Comfort And Convenience Package. Highly recommend the Comfort package. You get a lot of amenities for the money. Vehicle looks very modern. We test drove the new Ford Bronco and a Chevy Blazer. The Envision is far more superior. Very smooth and quiet ride with the 20 inch wheels. Dash layout is impressive with the display screen angled toward the driver. Seats are comfortable. The standard safety features are awesome. Glad there is a switch to turn off the engine stop start feature. Visibility is good. Plenty of engine power. The problem at this time is finding what you want due to the shortage of new vehicles available for purchase. I had to drive over 500 miles to purchase the vehicle. Highly recommend the 2021 Envision.
