I like the small detail of having the DRL match up with the chrome piece on the grille. Makes it look like one continuous line. I consider Buick like a premium brand, it’s not mainstream but not on Cadillacs level of luxury.

The fabric on the side of the seat is actually quite smart. A lot of people slide across the seat when they get in and out which puts a lot of wear on the edge of the seat, especially with the edge of the plastic panel there. Leather tends to crack and tear in that spot over time. Jeep Grand Cherokee has the same design.

I enjoyed your review very much. I purchased a 2021 Buick Envision Avenir in March of 2021, the only difference in mine and the one in the video is mine has the whisper beige interior. It has been a joy to drive, it is very quiet and rides very well. The fit and finish are very good, I haven't experienced any squeaks or rattles. I agree with Austin on the vehicles appearance is top shelf.

I legitimately passed Chick-Fil-A to follow it into a parking lot because my 2017 Nissan Maxima is getting some miles (I’m a realtor so I drive all the time), and am considering a smallish SUV to replace it with. I legitimately gasped when I saw the Buick symbol. My 24 year old self likes a BUICK? Test driving one later this week and looking forward to it. Thanks for the review!

Buick nailed it on the Avenir's beautiful exterior (five stars, although dual chrome exhaust pipes & led fog lights would have raised the bar a couple of notches), that said the interior is lacking in a couple of important areas which to your credit you already pointed out such as the lack of a 100% digital dash, chrome speaker covers & rear vent trim also missing is stitching on the passenger's dash side. As for my preference I'm eagerly awaiting the all new 2022 Infiniti QX50 which I think will be awesome & a step above the Buick Avenir in every regard except for the cost which the Avenir will definitely have that going for it.

@@gregholman2930 Sounds like a good deal. If you have any trouble with the *power windows*, you can probably fix it yourself. (Check for youtube videos, of course, for guidance.) You might want to keep a roll of duct tape in the trunk--in case one of the windows 'falls down' into the door. Just realize that this is a very common problem & don't freak out when it happens. Part costs about $40 on ebay, I'm guessing. My only other problem involved the transmission 'hard shifting' occasionally. I've heard that some filter needed to be cleaned. It involved taking off the left front wheel. An independent shop might charge you $300-$400 for this job. I traded my Buick before having such a repair done. Also, remember that the battery is located under the back seat!

Buick has to follow up with stylistic improvements to the rest of their lineup in order to be considered a legitimate brand. Only having one knockout vehicle isn’t enough to bring me to their customer following. That’s an important reason why they haven’t had a loyal relationship with the driving public for the past half century. Inconsistent design evolution has certainly slowed their growth. Take heed otherwise the junkyard of failed brands such as Saturn, Pontiac, and Oldsmobile awaits.

The headliner in the interior should be a darker color because the light colored headliner will eventually get dirty and look aged after frequent use of the panoramic sunroof. Also, arguably baby boomers have the accrued capital to afford a $40K vehicle so there is a threshold of demographics that Buick is more interested in beyond just appealing to “younger shoppers”. People buy Buicks because of the respect that the brand represent within the history of automotive engineering in America but more importantly they buy Buick because like Cadillac and Lincoln, Buick represents a certain aspect of achieving the American dream. Arguably this is why Buicks have become so popular in China: the history of Buick in America is the vision that the Chinese has for personal accomplishment and achievement for its own citizens. Yes Buick has had to change with the times but do not be misguided. Buick is more than just an American automobile brand operating as a multinational corporation in the Asian Market. They are a car company who has a history engrained in loyalty, the belief in human accomplishment and the achievement of the American dream and the accessibility of it to all.

The previous Envision 2.0T had very good handling, braking,, an very smooth ride quality.. The 2017 Buick Envision 2.0T is putting down a faster 27.5s figure-8 time vs 2019 CX-5 2.5T and 2019 RDX 2.0T at 27.7 in Motor Trend testing. That continues in an Emergency Lane test by Consumer Reports that has the Envision 2.0T doing 55.5 mph while the CX-5(non-turbo) did 54 mph and the RDX 2.0T can only go 52.5 mph. For 2019 Envision 2.0T gets a new 9-speed and 295 lb-ft of torque, 316 lb-ft of torque on overboost. The twin clutch and torque vectoring AWD is something that Mazda cannot match only able to use brakes on a single on a wheel for torque vectoring. The Hiperstrut, as also seen on Honda Civic Type-R as dual axis strut, eliminates any torque steer under accleration. At a discounted $35K the Envision Prem ll offers heads up display, adaptive high beams and articulating HID, adaptive cruise control with full stopping, tri-zone climate control, sliding rear seat, 12-volt outlet, along with Buick's longer warranty than Mazda.

I own the previous gen 2018. The sides of the front seats are still leather on mine, not on this. The touch screen is now angled up, which means if the sunroof is open or the glass window is exposed, there is going to be a ton of glare on the screen. It appears the gauge cluster they give less information than before - the alternator regeneration is removed for example. Worse, this car has less horsepower than before for better fuel economy and slower acceleration although it is still adequate. For 2022 the air ionizer will be removed as well so if you want this, you have to buy this years model. The rear seat controls are reduced as my car you control the temperature with a separate fan control - but it has been removed here. Also you could tilt the rear seats back in my car, you no longer can do that here. And this is the top of the line model? I will pass.

You have to see this vehicle up close to really appreciate the design. Even in the preferred trim this vehicle smokes the competition. The options packages are extremely easy to navigate and honestly, right now, no one is offering the discounts on their "compact luxury SUV" that GM is offering on the Envision. On paper the mechanics of this car is on par with vehicle like Audi Q3, Mazda CX30 Turbo, Mercedes GLA, the BMW X1 for 10s of thousands of dollars less. Factor in the fact that the AWD system is torque vectoring similar to Acuras SH-AWD, the cost of ownership is far less than its European competition and the only foreseeable new entry performance competition might be the Genesis GV70 and the Envision moves to the top of the list of best non luxury brand compact SUVs to consider as a best value for the price. I am about a year from my next car purchase but the Envision Avenir is already at the top of my list for consideration.

Not impressed by the interior at all. So many missed opportunities especially for the Avenir trim. Window switches look like every other Buick, the cloth sides of the seats, the gauge cluster, door panels look cheap. I guess it will all come down to price, but for the mid 40’s, I would say the much larger and powerful Palisade or Telluride are still nicer and a better value. Too many basic GM parts are thrown around and the inside to justify that price with that same 2.0 turbo they have used for years now. I will say that the outside is beautiful with the exception of those taillights. Those remind of aftermarket lights someone would put on a riced out Mitsubishi Eclipse.

This 2021 Envision 2.0T is as low $27K and quite the bargain compared to the Japanese economy models like CR-V and RAV4 on autotrader. The Avenir trim is middle $30's.

The part of the video while he is driving, he doesn’t let you see the road in front of him. He just let’s you see his face. Which is ridiculous. But the envision is highly overpriced mid 40’s is way to high, as compared to the needs of the younger public.

@@jeffs6090 some regions are known for specific proficiencies in manufacturing. Chinese are known for speed, quantity, and affordability. Germans are known for precision, which is usually more expensive. Swedes, practicality, ingenuity, cleverness. Japanese, quality. So on and so forth. This is how the world manufacturs, with each nation being more or less proficient for the type of manufacture that they bring to the market. It's not a knock against China, but they're not known for high quality, They're known for being affordably made.

When I bought my first iPhone, I could not get over the fact that it was made in China. Now many iPhone models later and many more to come, I don't care. My N95 respirator mask is made in China, and I won't leave my house without it. When I was a kid, people made fun of Japanese cars and would not get caught dead in one; now, these same people who are now senior citizens only buy Toyota's or Honda's. The world is constantly changing; you either change with it or get left behind. I will be leasing a 2021 Buick Envision Avenir when my current lease expires in June. No disrespect meant.
