Overview

The segment that the Buick Envision falls in is really competitive with multiple brands fighting for the limelight. In order to stand strong in such a market, Buick decided to completely rework the Envision for 2021. The 2021 Buick Envision is now equipped with a 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine that has a turbocharger slapped on producing a good 230 hp.

The Buick Envision starts at $31,800 and packs features like wireless CarPlay and Android Auto as a part of the technology package across all trims and Buick also offers an AWD system as an option. The Buick Envision has been the practical crossover with an upmarket build and it still stands that way with the new iteration making things tough for its competitors like the BMW X3, the Audi Q5, and the Lincoln Corsair.

Buying Advice

The Buick Envision sure is a premium vehicle and the lower price tag of the Buick makes it a great value. The Envision is the premium SUV that wouldn’t break your bank and the fact that it comes loaded with features doesn’t really require the buyers to even consider the Premium II trim. Instead, we recommend choosing the regular Premium trim and adding the $1,900 technology package that adds features like the active suspension damping, adaptive cruise control, articulation headlamps, and video rear-view mirror to the already loaded car.
