Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
All-wheel drive is standard,
actually capable when the blacktop ends,
finally an EV option for Subie fans.

Cons
Not a lot of cargo space,
charging capability isn't particularly quick,
rivals offer more driving range.

By:

Pros
Solid off-road capabilities
Comfortable, quiet ride

Cons
Shorter driving range than many rivals
Bland interior

By: 
usnews.com

Pros
More ground clearance than most EVs
Quiet and comfortable
Good feature content even on base models

Cons
Higher MSRP than base Forester or Ascent

Elevated floor can be uncomfortable in the rear seat

By: 
motortrend.com

Pros
Powerful turbocharged engine
Handsome updated styling
Standard active safety tech

Cons
Luxury Avenir trim will be expensive
The brand doesn't command as much respect as some competitors

Buick has completely redesigned the Envision SUV for 2021, imbuing it with an eye-catching design that's far more handsome than the bland 2020 model featured.We haven't had the chance to sample the all-new Envision, but we suspect that the mid-range Essence model will likely satisfy most buyers. Those seeking a luxury ride with all the trimmings should turn their attention to the top-flight Avenir. When we know more about the Envision's standard and optional features, we'll update this story with results.

The redesigned 2021 Buick Envision comes with more standard features and a more stylish look.

Pros
Good standard safety features
Avenir trim
More American-sized proportions
Sharper style

Cons
No word on price
Will it have enough power?
Is it bigger inside?

By:

The base 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine is no longer offered.Previous five trim levels reduced to three: Preferred, Essence and Avenir.Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard.

Pros
Quiet interior at highway speeds
Both the ride and the seats are comfortable
Standard wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto

Cons
Disappointing real-world fuel economy
Visibility is compromised by thick pillars
Not much fun to drive
