One Sweet Ride
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.

WOW!
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!

Like driving on a cloud!
Have had my Envision for a week now and am getting plenty of looks as this’s is Honda country so this updated design and sleek look really stands out! And the ride is to die for, so smooth and floaty over bumps and I am loving the huge touchscreen with all the tech features I could want! I am learning about all the safety features which are standard on every trim and have actually lowered my car insurance rate! Seats are comfy and heated with upgraded package I got, but a little firm so we will see how they do on a long trip next month.

Wanted to Love It, But Too Many Problems
I drove a Lexus IS then a Mazda6 for the last several years. I was looking for a SUV and test drove just about every SUV there is, including luxury. Finding a SUV that was sleek and forward thinking was hard. Through two months of test driving, I kept coming back to the Envision and finally purchased a few weeks ago. It’s a beautiful SUV, and the ride quality is fantastic. I feel in love with the interior, particularly the infotainment screen and it’s angle to the driver. The technology is easy to use and a good mix of having enough, yet not overwhelming you with too much. The ride quality is great, HP is more than enough, camera quality is fantastic, and most of the technology is easy to use. A few little things with tech that can be worked out, but nothing to complain about for sure. I do wish the rear storage was a bit more, and I would love to see Buick make these in a hybrid for increased MPG. That said, from a 44 year old who never thought he’d see himself in a Buick, to the same 44 year old thinking this SUV is great and sexy, I love it!! UPDATE: I purchased my 2022 Buick Envision new in January 2022. Since 2003, I’ve owned a Ford, a Lexus, and a Mazda, all purchased new, but the Buick has been my most recent vehicle. While I wanted to love this SUV, my experience has been very frustrating and disappointing. At the 3-year mark, I’ve already had to replace several components due to issues or complete failure, including the transmission, air compressor (which fused and caused the air conditioner to fail—in August), driver’s seat electronics (random failure), OnStar/satellite module (twice), torque converter, and coolant cables (unexpected early leaks). I’ve been meticulous about taking the car in for regular maintenance and service, but without the 150,000-mile warranty, I would have been burdened with enormous repair bills. This car has required more repairs than my previous four vehicles combined. The repair wait times have only added to my frustration. The dealership has been great in helping me—none of the delays were their fault, as they were waiting on parts—but it still took eight months to repair the seat electronics and six weeks for the transmission. The OnStar/satellite module has been a recurring issue, and for over a year, I couldn’t use the mobile app. While not using the app was itself not a major inconvenience, it was frustrating since I was paying for the service. While the technology is impressive when it works, the reliability has been a constant problem. The cabin is well-designed, comfortable, and perfectly suited to my needs, which makes my disappointment even greater. I expected much better product quality from GM and Buick. While the dealership has been outstanding, the frequent reliability issues and random failures have left me with no choice but to trade in this vehicle soon. I’ll be returning to one of the Japanese automakers, as I foresee too many future issues and repair costs with the Envision. Let me know if this works!

Buick Buy
I love a lot of the new features on this compared to my 2017 Buick Envision. Especially the electronic features to keep eyes on the road while driving. However, this car no longer has a/c controls for individuals riding in the rear seat. The air vents back there are small and the output is not very strong. I wish they hadn’t messed with the old feature of dual controls for passengers.
