Is The 2023 Buick Envision Avenir The Best Kept Compact SUV Secret?

[@coralshowell8588]

I brought a 2023 Envision Avenir approximately 3 weeks ago and absolutely love it. The features the ride sound. I have no complaints with my purchase. Now I look for places to go so I can drive it. Thanks, Buick.

I purchased my 2023 Envision Avenir color is Sapphire on March 12th and I Love it 💙💙 I went to buy the ocean blue Envista Preferred but I saw the Envision and just had to have it, I know the envision cost much more but to me it’s worth it, this car ride so nice and quiet I love all the features. The only thing missing is the Blindspot warning. Hopefully they will agree to add it. The Envista is a very nice vehicle and I might buy one in the future, but the envision made my heart happy.

I have an older model enclave and I love buick. The ride is so smooth and luxurious. I am going to be purchasing this new envision avenir soon. My only request is that they would branch out and and build a full body on frame suv like the gmc yukon etc.

Best bang for the buck compact crossover on the market. After spending a couple of months researching this segment of the market, I went ahead and purchased a 2023 Buick Envision Avenir a couple of weeks ago. You can get a deal on these in the current new car market because the Buick name is not driving folks through the front door of the dealership and below MSRP pricing is achievable. My decision came down to the Avenir or Cadillac XT4 and I was able to get the Avenir out the door for 7k less compared to a similarly equipped XT4. Same engine, transmission, and features wrapped in a different exterior styling but with a ride setup built on the comfortable side of the equation versus the Cadillac’s edging a bit more to a sportier/firmer ride. Cadillac XT4 has power folding mirrors and power tilt/telescoping steering wheel that is not available on the Avenir, but the Avenir has a larger infotainment screen and a much better driver focused cockpit setup vs the current 2023 XT4. There is value to be had on the best kept secret in this segment: the 2023 Buick Envision Avenir.

My only criticism of Buick is getting rid of sedans. I can’t believe that nobody wants a happy medium between a big SUV and a small SUV and car manufacturers in general are phasing out sedans. As a disabled person who just wants a decent sized, comfortable car that is easy to get in and out, it’s so frustrating. Buick is the last brand that prioritizes comfort over 16 year old boy fantasies.

I've got an 02 regal drives great but getting in and out is like climbing into a go-kart compared to this Invision... I'm 5'8 I danm near can put my hand on the ground when getting of the regal

We purchased our 2023 AWD Avenir in February and are totally pleased with this vehicle. The video covered the features and overall high points, but I’ll also comment on how quiet the ride is, as outside noises are vertically eliminated for full enjoyment of the Bose Sound System. Also, we agree that AWD is best for ice and snow, but the “Mode” selection knob also allows using FWD only for better gas milage. Two thumbs up 👍👍

[@christhornycroft2731]

How is it for comfort? I have chronic back and neck pain. It's so hard finding a car that isn't "sporty."

[@Carfan678]

@@christhornycroft2731 have u tried Lincolns they have some of the most adjustable seats in the market. Nissan is a honorable mention it's not a premium brand but I find a lot of their models pretty comfy same with jeep as long as its not a wrangler

We bought a 2023 Envision Essence AWD about 7 months and love it. Very comfortable, quiet and responsive to drive around town and on long trips. Plenty of power to merge on to freeways with short on-ramps. The large screen is very user friendly compared to the Verano we had previously, and the high definition and widescreen backup camera is very bright and clear. A lot better than our 2022 Grand Cherokee. The back seats have plenty of room and are surprisingly comfortable for this sized car. We use all the safety features offered - some are optional. For the front seats, we bought some car seat cushions from Cushion Lab to make sure the seats stayed comfortable on long trips, and they are.

Superb review! When this generation debuted a couple years ago, I was stunned by the overall improvements over the first generation. The touchscreen integration within the angled center stack remains better than most designs on the market. So nice to not have the typical propped up tablet look. I appreciate the hood extending all the way to the grille and headlight assemblies without the common filler panel and attendant cut line. The Avenir package is great but the Envision remains plenty nice in the lower price-point trim levels, with or without the optional ST package.

[@DarrellTurnerJr]

I looked at one of these today. I'm confused because it was $6k more than the ST Envision but the ST had AWD and the Avenir did not. Get the ST with leather and call it a day.

[@UnenthusedEnthusiast]

I bought the essence trim and love it!! The ride is smoother and quieter with the 18” wheels. I also like the rough unpainted trim around the bottom and wheel well trim of the lower trims bc of the road debris and minor off road protection it gives. The Avenir is nice too but I’m extremely happy with spending about 10k less for my Essence

[@Coloradoski24]

I really like the features and quality of this car and seriously considering it. It has a luxury quality compared to other luxury brands at a lower cost. Thanks for the review.

[@VehicleVisionary]

You're welcome! Thank you for taking the time to watch.

[@randyreynolds1045]

This will be my next car❤ Great job GM! Very safe car too!

[@shenanigan3083]

I have one in moon stone grey you can see the lines and curves so much better absolutely stunning

[@TonyaLightell]

I just bought mine same color and trim.i love mine.

[@mamalovesmusic]

Hows the sitting ? Do you notice the no lumbar support?

[@gregoryjefferson6311]

Not that I would ever consider paying 50K ( Taxes,, standard American Car Dealer GOUGE ) for a sub compact car , but does it take Regular or Premium gas ?

[@mauricemcintosh1007]

For the value you still can’t beat the Kia/Hyundai high end brand. Cmon GMC y’all better catch up

[@shenanigan3083]

Not having lumber as standard on this and the essence trim is very frustrating tho

[@raypoon991]

Price it under 30K

[@stephaniegifford2020]

I have one and love it.

[@peterandrewj]

Nice SUV but I can't see spending the money. I have more confidence in the 2023 Lincoln Corsair.

[@christhornycroft3686]

A Ford?

[@randyreynolds1045]

Please no electric!

[@lynnharr1277]

Plastic wood accents?!? Tacky, tacky Buick. 😮
