Overview

The Buick Envista brings premium luxury crossover-coupe styling to an entry-level price point, featuring Buick's new triad badge design, standard 11-inch Ultrawide display, and spacious 38.7 inches of rear legroom.

Driving Experience

The 1.2L Turbo engine and traditional 6-speed automatic deliver responsive around-town torque, complemented by QuietTuning noise cancellation and Watts Link rear suspension for a refined ride.

Fuel Economy & Utility

Achieves an EPA-estimated 30 MPG combined (32 MPG highway) with 20.7 cu ft of rear cargo space behind the 60/40 folding bench seats.

Pros

  • Head-turning exterior design inspired by the Buick Wildcat EV concept car
  • Standard Ultrawide 11-inch touchscreen display paired with an 8-inch digital driver cluster
  • QuietTuning technology with Active Noise Cancellation provides an extraordinarily quiet cabin
  • Generous rear legroom (38.7 inches) for comfortable adult passenger seating
  • Smooth 6-speed automatic transmission avoids CVT rubber-band revbing

Cons

  • All-Wheel Drive (AWD) is not available (FWD only)
  • 137 hp engine is tuned for efficiency rather than fast high-speed highway merging
  • Sloping rear roofline slightly reduces rear cargo height compared to traditional boxy crossovers

Verdict

A show-stopping, highly affordable crossover coupe that punchily exceeds its price tag with Wildcat EV-inspired styling, QuietTuning cabin acoustic isolation, and standard Ultrawide 11-inch display tech.
