Used 2022 Buick Envision SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2022 Buick Envision is a five-passenger small luxury SUV available in three trim levels: Preferred, Essence and Avenir. All have a turbocharged 230-horsepower four-cylinder engine mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is optional. Feature highlights for the Envision include:

Preferred
Starts you off with:

  • LED headlights
  • Roof rails
  • Rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible behind the vehicle when parking)
  • Keyless entry and ignition
  • Power-adjustable driver's seat
  • 8-inch touchscreen
  • OnStar remote services with Wi-Fi hotspot
  • Wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration
  • Six-speaker audio system

Every Envision also comes with the Buick Driver Confidence suite of safety features that includes:

  • Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane keeping assist (steers the vehicle back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert (warns you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while reversing)
  • Safety alert seat (vibrates the driver's seat cushion when a safety warning is triggered)

Comfort and Convenience package
Available for the Preferred trim, it adds features such as:

  • Hand-free liftgate
  • Heated steering wheel and front seats
  • Remote engine start
  • Dual-zone climate control
  • 10.2-inch touchscreen
  • Seven-speaker audio system with an amplifier 

Essence
Gains more premium features such as:

  • Contents of the Comfort and Convenience package
  • Larger driver information display
  • Power-adjustable front passenger seat
  • Driver's seat memory functions

Sport Touring package
Available for the Preferred and Essence, it includes:

  • Dark gray 20-inch wheels
  • Black exterior trim
  • Unique grille and ST badging
  • Embossed headrests
  • Sport pedals

Technology Package I
Adds these safety and tech features to the Essence:

  • Front parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of the vehicle when parking)
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the vehicle and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Navigation
  • Bose nine-speaker audio system
  • HD radio
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line onto the windshield)

Avenir
Tops the Envision lineup with:

  • Contents of the Technology Package I
  • Ventilated front seats
  • Heated rear outboard seats
  • Driver's seat massage functions
  • Household-style power outlet
  • Wireless charging pad

Optional for the Essence and Avenir is the Technology Package II that includes:

  • Adaptive suspension (enhances ride comfort and cornering stability)
  • Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the vehicle and the car in front)
  • Enhanced forward collision mitigation system
  • Adaptive headlights (swivel as you turn the steering wheel for better illumination in curves)
  • Virtual rearview mirror (allows you to see out of the back even with a fully loaded cargo area)
  • Automated parking system (steers into a parking spot with little or no driver intervention)

Which Envision trim does Edmunds recommend?

The midlevel Essence is a good place to start. To that, we'd add both available Technology packages for their premium features, such as a larger touchscreen with navigation, parking sensors, adaptive cruise control and adaptive suspension. To add a sportier look, the Sport Touring package is also available.
