Thanks for the video, super detailed! I have a dumb question - Would 'Sport mode' be the best for driving long distances in the mountains? I drive to BC from Alberta once a month (650kms) over several mountain passes and I'm worried about this vehicle not having enough power (I currently drive a Grand Cherokee). Thanks!
What are the safety ratings? Is this car reliable? Will Buick ever return to US manufacturing or will this continue to be built in China? Test drove this car and it was a very comfortable/quiet drive. The seats are incredibly comfortable. However, the side mirrors were more obstructive than helpful. This was a concern for me. Thanks for the detailed review.
Hey Kim. The Envision has a 5 Star Safety Rating, yes they are know to be very reliable with JD Power Rating its build quality in the top 5 Automakers (out of 49) for 8 out of the last 10 years. When it comes to manufacturing Buick is an American automaker, the location of Buick's manufacturing centers is diverse. Buick models are built in different manufacturing plants all across the United States as well as in Canada, China, South Korea, and even Germany. As for the side mirrors I have to be very honest every vehicle you get into will have blind spots and you will get use to them very quickly. Keep in mind automakers provide Surround Vision aka Birds Eye View Cameras to help with this. Appreciate the comments, cheers!
Yes. They have an embedded navagation and a connected navagation. THe embedded nav is a SD card that has all of the current up to date roads/businesses in it and the connected nav is like the Google Maps its always connected always up to date with road closures, traffic and accidents so the connected navagation is a great option.
You bet and its rated at 90kms per hour so you can still travel at a decent speed to get you to a tire shop. Much better than a can of GOO don't you think?
I've never seen this interior color offered anywhere? Looks real nice!
Agreed!

Great question Lexie! The sport mode is all about fun zippy driving. So no the normal touring mode would be best for highway driving in the mountains.

How much is cost to adding a sunroof to this car?
Where do you get those wheels??
From your Local Chev/Buick/GMC Parts department!
Does the gps work without subscribing to their navigation system?
Yes. They have an embedded navagation and a connected navagation. THe embedded nav is a SD card that has all of the current up to date roads/businesses in it and the connected nav is like the Google Maps its always connected always up to date with road closures, traffic and accidents so the connected navagation is a great option.
Plus your Apple play maps works perfectly through this hands off system.
So where’s the rear cover?
The cargo privacy cover is optional but can be ordered in the Parts Department!
