The most reliable engine and transmission combination GM has! Honestly the most reliable vehicle I’ve been working in GM dealerships for the last 23 years and the Envision is the vehicle we see least in the shop I highly recommend it! I’m a truck guy and love my Silverado but the Envision it just works!

That cloth insert on the side of the seat is actually not cost cutting as you suggested. It’s actually there to replace leather or faux leather which tends to disintegrate very quickly in that particular area due to all of the compression and movement that particular part of the seat experiences. They replaced it with fabric as it’s more durable and will increase the longevity of the seat. Also, If you’ve ever owned a car with a head up display, i don’t think you would say it’s “useless.” I use it every time I drive. Not having to take your eyes off the road isn’t useless.

I've loved thr Envisions for a few years now. The only "complaint" I've heard from a few owners is the floating feeling of a looser suspension. What was your impression of the driving dynamics and did the steering feel a little too lose? I'm used to Chevy Equinox's where I move the steering wheel a little bit and it goes where I want when I want!
@Ssccootttt4 ай бұрын
I have a ‘23 and the roads are trash where I live. I love how soft it rides for day to day comfort, and it does float a bit because of that, but I wouldn’t call it floaty or bouncy. It feels confident and well-planted. It’s surprisingly playful when you want it to be, but it really shines as a smooth-cruiser. I find myself driving it in sport mode most of the time because it makes the steering feel heavy and seems to tighten it up a bit. Sport mode also uses the AWD system to send power to the rear outer wheel when cornering. All in all I’d say it’s a pretty good balance of handling and comfort.

@lilred1107 that's my thought when people say it seems too light on the road. I just like a tighter steering like I'm used to currently. I'll definitely have to drive the Envision and especially on the highway, to get a good feeling about it.

@PatrickJTezak For the adjustability with suspension and steering see if you can find an Avenir trim and test it out. The sport setting does tighten things up.

When you think of Buick you think of a luxury car and a smooth as glass ride. Ideal for people who do "not" want a sports car ride which can be too jarring, jerky and painful at times. So the public expectation for a new Buick would be a car with power recliner seats, with self leveling shocks a system that absorbs the pot holes and the curbs. Something you could give voice commands too instead of touch screen controls or an array of buttons. A car that would address you with, "Good morning Ben, where are we going today?" And then say Bye Ben, with real emotion when you disembark Something the new BMW Mini Cooper can do, it sounds like 2001 A Space Odyssey. You'll look back and the 12" screen will display, "BYE BEN".

The automobile is Made in Shanghai, China. At this point Buick is just trying to stay alive. And while many companies partner with China, it seems that China is increasingly truculent and therefore unsavory as a partner and at some point it might be a questionable partnership in terms of loyalty to America. For these reasons, and others, I would not make the purchase.
