2025 Buick Envista ST: The Best Subcompact SUV Under 30k?

[@robertwinkler8444]

I like everything about it except the exterior color would go with something darker. The Watts link rear suspension is a plus in the ST. The price is right too. P.S. very nice reviews my friend👍🏻👍🏻

Who did the pinstripes? Very classy 👏🏽

[@chabbysrides]

I thought the dealer did, but they told me it came from the factory that way. Nice touch.

[@medinaaquatics7572]

@chabbysrides Thank you! My Dealer has a 2025 exactly like the one you Reviewed but no pin striping on it. Too bad because it adds a cool look to it.

Very good review. I love my 24 ST in Copper Ice. The rear window doesn't need a rear wiper as you said. If you want a good laugh go to AutoAtlantica's review of this and read the comment section of him arguing with me about the rear wiper. It's pretty hilarious.

[@chabbysrides]

I’ll check it out. Thanks for tuning in and the feedback 👍

A GM answer to high vehicle costs. Attractive..somehow grille is s bit awkward. More of a fastback sedan. Have question about longevity and reliability of engine with a "wet" belt design. Attractive.. maybe a good value short term lease would be best value. Nice, detailed review..as always! .

[@chabbysrides]

Thanks Louis!

[@robertwinkler8444]

Heard from a reliable mechanic the the wet belt is good for 150,000 as long as you don't beat on it, but change at 90,000 miles if you feel uncomfortable. Extended warranty is always a good option.

Looks like a very nice car. Looks fast but is total let down

[@christianheidt5733]

Yeah, we'll see if it still runs in 10yrs 😂.

[@NathanMoist]

Depends on how you take care of it but most people won't keep a vehicle for ten years. However, I had my Cruze for 12 years and 200K miles and people said they were junk cars also.

[@StevenSmith-nq9rh]

Well see if any car that's not the great Toyota or Honda last 10yrs.Make some sense.

[@StevenSmith-nq9rh]

The look takes some getting used to.Havent seen one yet.See lots of Traxs.Not too many Buick dealers where i live.

Under 30k base model sry

Any vehicle not doing 7sec range 0-60 or 1/4 mile in the 15 sec range range not safe. Just image A/C ON OR 2PEOPLE IN THE CAR OR MORE AND IF YOU DID SHOPPING IT COULD BE A "DEATH-ISSUE"
