Starting at
You'll love what a fun drive this vehicle offers. It boasts a powerful and peppy 2.0L turbocharged I-4 engine under its hood, giving you acceleration on command. This engine provides a potent 228 hp and won't struggle to get up to speed in time or do a little towing. Plus, it boasts some solid fuel efficiency, rated for 26 MPG combined in front-wheel models. With figures like that, you can spend less time at the pumps and more time getting where you need to go.
Speaking of towing, the Envision can haul up to 1,500 lbs, so this SUV can also be your weekend adventure vehicle for bringing that boat out to the lake or a small camper out to the wilderness for quality time with friends and family. If you want to rent a small storage pod for moving day, it can tow that, too. Drivers interested in a more exhilarating and eye-catching option can check out the Special Sport Touring edition. That's going to earn you alloy sport pedals, roof rails, 20-inch aluminum wheels, and some other fun styling details.
If your journeys often take you on unpredictable roads, you'll like the available twin-clutch intelligent all-wheel drive system. This will monitor the road and shift torque laterally to the wheels that need it most to reduce wheel spin and boost traction. Furthermore, the continuous damping control suspension optimizes control to help you enjoy a bump-free and comfortable ride. Overall, the 2023 Buick Envision is known for its amazingly smooth ride.
You can also make adjustments to your driving experience depending on where you are or just what you're feeling. The Envision boasts several selectable drive modes, including Touring, AWD, Sport, and Off-Road. Switch to Sport mode when you want more power and precise steering, or use Off-Road mode when you're leaving paved roads. It's all doable with the push of a button.
Riding in the 2023 Buick Envision is a true luxury, thanks to the vehicle's modern and seamless infotainment and connectivity features. First, there is a standard eight-inch touchscreen, which can be upgraded to a 10.2-inch display. You will enjoy crisp, bright graphics for information like your playlists and directions. An available connected navigation system will give you turn-by-turn directions, so you don't have to sync up your smartphone to get navigation if you don't want to. But, if you do, there is wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, so you can ditch the messy cords. That's even truer because there's an available wireless charger, so you never need cables to power up devices.
If you want a totally streamlined lifestyle, you'll love the available built-in Amazon Alexa. You can use it to control smart home devices, so you can set the oven or adjust the thermostat before you even walk in the door. You can also use it to set reminders for yourself, check the weather, and even shop online. To make life even simpler, you can connect up to 10 devices to the Buick infotainment center, and two can be simultaneously set up to receive incoming calls, so you and your passenger don't need to argue about who can handle work calls in the car.
If you love bumping tunes, you'll love the available Bose nine-speaker audio system. Produced by one of the best manufacturers of car audio systems, it includes AudioPilot noise compensation technology. Finally, note that your rearview mirror also has a rear camera view. This feature is the answer if you want a good look at what's happening behind your vehicle without passengers and cargo obstructing your view. When you want to adjust your sunglasses or fix your hair, just put it back in regular mirror mode.
Thanks to the generous suite of standard and available driver-assist technologies, you'll always feel confident on the road, no matter what the traffic flow has in store for you. Starting with the standard features, you'll enjoy Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, and Front Pedestrian Braking. These systems will use visual and audio alerts to let you know if a crash is imminent and will automatically take over and brake if necessary. They can detect both vehicles and pedestrians for added safety.
You'll also have Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning standard. These features will notify you if you seem to be drifting from your lane and gently take over steering to put you back on the straight and narrow. A Following Distance Indicator will track how close you are to other vehicles and warn you if it's too close. Finally, the IntelliBeam system has smart high beams that know just when to turn on––and when to turn off.
As for available features, there is the HD rear vision camera, which is very useful when backing out of driveways or into parking spots. There is also adaptive cruise control that will help you maintain your speed and distance from other vehicles. Then there is the Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist, which uses sensors and cameras to guide you into parking spots. This feature is especially helpful in the more urban parts of the Atlanta area, where parallel parking is a regular part of everyday life. And let's not forget the HD surround vision camera, giving you a complete look at what's happening around your vehicle at all times.
You will also get three years of OnStar and the Connected Services Premium Plan with your new Buick Envision. This will give you access to emergency services and crisis assistance in the event of a crash and can greatly reduce stress following a collision. When a crash is detected, OnStar representatives will instantly contact you through the vehicle's speakers and ask what sort of assistance you require.
