"This is ridiculous, i want premium features." "I just want a vehicle that is actually affordable and allows you to skip unnecessary features and luxury such as a wrapped steering wheel." Hmm, thats interesting, these two statements conflict eachother
While that does conflict in some ways, there are car makers that have been providing premium features at a lower cost. Not everyone does premium at a premium. Look at Mazda, Kia, and Hyundai. A lot for a little. Plus, Mazda interiors are premium yet simple. So it is not fully out of the realm to expect it.
2025- does have all features but not muchon basic versions .. -its just buried in the trim packs - but the plastic and the other points he made was correct .. but wireless charging - hotspot , moonroof sounds etc.. just need to use trims back seet not 2 bad .
Rooting for Buick !! Not a huge fan of their designs but I’m glad others are and kudos to GM for giving affordability I believe the base trim starts at 22k
This is the Chevy Trax, but better looking. Inside and out. If I were looking for a small CUV that started at 25k and I didn't care about speed? I'd buy one of these and pay it off with Uber rides.
You can option a power moonroof for $800. Still, this car could be so great. But the engine is a dealbreaker. The bezel on the infotainment is RIDICULOUS
Seems like the infotainment bezel was a cost-saving measure, same as with the Encore GX. It looks like it's the same dash that is in the Envision and Enclave just with smaller screens so they didn't have to manufacture multiple different dashes.
We have an Envista in the preferred trim. The 1.2 L 3 cylinder does have a turbo that kicks in low in the RPM range. That makes it just perfect for quick right turn merges on city streets. It's not super fast for merging onto the highway, but, then again, that's why on ramps are longer.
I have a 2024 Avenir trim and mine has a sunroof, did they stop offering it?……also you didn’t mention anything about the Flex Fuel engine now offered for 2025. With all due respect when you say on throttle and you jam, the gas pedal against the floor and then comment that the car doesn’t have enough power makes me scratch my head as to how you drive. I takeoff from a stop with a reasonable amount of acceleration, not expecting to squawk the tires or leap forward like a rocket ship. Also regarding fuel economy, I’m not sure why Buick has it set at 32 miles per gallon highway but I just took a trip to Mexico and back with this vehicle from Phoenix and it was about 250 miles each way, miles per gallon calculation on the dashboard that I average 41.8 miles to the gallon, which is pretty darn good. Granted this was pretty much all flat roads and I only had one other person in the car with me, but even with that the MPG on this vehicle is excellent in my opinion and the car is more than adequate for the price, how it looks, and what it offers. I guess maybe the comedy of how you do your auto reviews falls in line with how you drove this car.
I love this Buick.....perfect for me.....I actually would buy the lower trim though as I don't care about many of the expensive options. More than enough power for me and no CVT. Thanks Joe. PS: Question.....as you like EVERY option possible, "why don't you just review LOADED vehicles?" No sunroof for $30,000 is very fair and not a zonk in my opinion.
For an Avenir it doesn't really make me feel likes it's an Avenir trim. It would be cool to see more of aviation or nautical theme in the interior. This car has potential to compete with the Mazda CX-30 in a few years.
Between the Envista Avenir and the CX-30 Premium, I bought the Mazda. It was a tough decision. Both are equally handsome. The Buick is impressively packaged for the price. I ultimately went for the AWD and proven reliability of the 2.5-liter Mazda engine in the CX-30.
I just bought a 25 Envista preferred... I have had it about 3 days now and I love driving this car.. it is underpowered but I didn't buy this to go Drag Racing... It's incredibly comfortable to drive... And handles great... I came from a 21 Malibu... And I'm glad I bought this... The safety features alone make it worth the price... I've got a lot of books and a lot of comments on this car already
As a Toyota buyer for the last 20 years, I just got tired of them and the dealers. I wanted a Corolla Cross, but was treated like dirt at the dealers. They could care less about you wanting to buy a car from them. I bought a preferred with all the options (lift gate, safety features, power seat, heated wheel seats) $26400. To get that in the Cross would be another 6 grand. This is a great car. Mid 30s or higher on the MPG. I never owned a turbo, but this car is way quieter than the Cross. I may never go back to Toyota if this thing holds up. The way I look at it, is I paid 6k less for a car that is better equipped and who care about a couple grand in trade in value when you already saved 6k. Please test drive one, before you take it off your list of cars to look at.
That payoff after depreciation after 3-4 years will be more than $6K. You probably won’t be saving any money in the long run, by buying a vehicle made in a country that wants to dominate us. 🇨🇳. Good luck.
@@robertk2530 you’re right. Apologies. I read an article from 2023 saying the “Chinese-made” Envista was coming to the states but a newer article states the 2024 is produced in Bupyeong, South Korea. I just wish it had features like a HUD and power folding mirrors. Enjoy.
This CUV is perfect for my home of NYC. Its 3-cylinder is fine cuz all 5 Boroughs have a speed limit capped at 25mph & the freeways aren't much better. I just wished it had all wheel drive
I won't buy a 3 cyl engine in any car. I really like the styling, though. I would love to see GM revisit Buick's history and revive its affordable luxury. My second car is my dad's pushrod V6 Le Sabre, and it still drives great! What a fantastic engine!
This vehicle is pretty good looking. Some people don’t care about a moonroof. The Kicks will have a few more horsepower and might have better features. We’ll see.
Calling it luxury is an overstatement, but it’s definitely a good amount nicer than a $30k car should be, kudos to Buick for producing this! I wish Buick used a N/A 4-cylinder over a turbocharged 3-cylinder but you can’t get everything, I’m still taking a Mazda CX30 personally, but I am impressed with the interior in this Envista given the price point, hopefully it won’t be unreliable 😅
If they did a 4 cylinder it still would've been a turbo, not NA. They would've used the 2.0LT ECOTEC from the Envision. GM doesn't make an NA 4 cylinder.
I think this car should have AC vents in the back seat too. And I prefer the Rubik's Cube holder area if it can be opened and closed up and down, for example.
Avenir trim is missing things considering it is a premium brand- a base model Camry comes with 2-zone climate and a hybrid system that gets you 52 MPG. There are also no vented seats on this Avenir model. For being the highest trim of the "premium brand" vehicle, it is lacking stuff. I do like that it is affordable though.
Nice enough but it shouldn't have any empty switches (indicating not included options) as the Avenir is top trim and should have all the bells and whistles (options) included in that trim for that price !
Honestly i Uber, driving a GMC TERRAIN. The 4x4 is going to come in handy and because of this review the top GMC and this might be my next. Thought the SURBURBAN, or TAHOE...got me thinking....

Great VID- New car buys, just bough one ,Envista- Avenir .-. White on black - it DOES have moon roof . need to add convince package #1 to get that plus premium system and moonroof heated seats an wheels Summary = if it has roof it has Heated seats , leather, heated wheel aswell - BUT to get power gate and wireless charge are packet #2 - -Total (2 trim pack total and 1 safety and 1 convince pack) you can stack all -it start at 22-23 so its perfect - I m not looking for leather or upset about plastic - 80% of the world is plastic - - if 400 + it would be different . tis is a great mid - to low price car - again - "it Does has a sunroof option "
Like what GM is doing with this and the Trax. Affordable subcom SUV. Adding bang for the buck. Do I like the engine HELL NO but for what it is I’m good with the 3 cylinder.
The Chevy Trax's more sophisticated brother. Same drivetrain as the Trax, but add a few grand for some sleeker styling. I'm not sure it's worth it, tho. Maybe just go for the Trax.
I am convinced GM is making a big profit on this vehicle, because $30 k is way too much. 3 cyl. Hard plastics, and no moon roof? Plus when Joe was driving I could clearly hear the wine from the engine when you were accelerating, and you were not flooring it(I don't think) It looks decent on the outside though.
🤔 Hmm, why does the "New" Acura concept look strangely familiar to this? I'm not a fan of the new ZDX via GM but if Acura improves on this for their next EV I could be sold!

I wish car reviewers would stop complaining about design features that don’t function. Sometimes something can exist solely for the sake of design. That’s ok. This is the second cheapest vehicle GM sells. Some of you act like you are reviewing an expensive vehicle. The industry ATP is $50k. This a car that fully loaded comes in $15k+ less than that. Let designers and customers have a little fun.
Uh it's a crossover not a sedan. That might be the reason. Also. One is a luxury brand while the other isn't. Last but not least. Crossover normally weigh more than sedan thus impacting fuel economy.
