Lane assist and intuitive features
Very reliable, easy to drive, backup camera is excellent. Lane assist helps you remain in your lane and notices if a car is in any blind spots. The air conditioning doesn't blow out air quickly so it takes awhile to cool down in the summertime. Heated seat and steering wheel

I have never spent a dime on gas, it is clean as far as emissions go.
I like the comfort and control. It is a smooth ride. As a driver, I have found it difficult, at times, to look back and get a full range of the road.

Unbelievable new updates and comfort.
Just purchased vehicles. Love the leather interior and all updated features such as rear view assist camera which aids with parking also. So far no problems with this auto. Love the leather seats and power seats on passenger and driver sides. Never owned a Buick before but loving the performance.

It looks expensive but it is very reasonably priced.
My car is very comfortable. It makes me feel special. It looks good and is a pleasure to drive. It has good gas mileage, many special features for safe driving and a huge sunroof. The size is perfect. The encore was too big and the enclave was too small. I love the heated and cooled leather seats. Both the driver and front passenger have 10 point adjustable seats which is crucial for a person with shorter legs. The rear seats are also heated. Passengers in the back can control their own temperature, which my daughter loves. It is roomy enough to fit three hockey bags yet still not feel like a big vehicle. I love sitting up higher. I can see the road so much better.

Safety features like car stopping in front of you and lane deviation warnings.
I love my car it looks expensive but it is not. It has adjustable heated and cooled front and passenger leather seats. It has a huge sunroof and many safety features. It has a digital speedometer that shows up in the windshield lane deviation a warning for cars stopping in front of you and a parking assist. Also has a backup camera which is wonderful. The rear seats are also heated and you can control the climate from the backseat.

Smaller, but more than sufficient, the Buick envision makes driving pleasurable.
The Buick envision has a very smooth ride both in the city and on the interstate. This vehicle is extremely reliable and extremely comfortable. As a smaller crossover there is still a lot of interior space for both the driver and the passengers. The power liftgate with hands-free operation on the trunk is an added feature. The heated seats and the heated steering wheel are a nice bonus and the thumb operated scroll wheels among the controls makes for safer driving. The Buick envision also has keyless access, keyless ignition, and remote starting.

The most amazing technology.
The Buick envision is an amazing vehicle if you like technology! It has a HUD(heads up display), Bose audio is standard, it is keyless entry and push to start! The interior and layout of the vehicle is so spacious! The front has heated and cooled seats as well as for the rear seats! The steering wheel is heated! It has lane and park assist! The car is just amazing!

Cannot say a bad thing about my vehicle. I second guess.
Love everything about my vehicle. The brakes kind of always stink. Very comfortable seating and good gas mileage. I do regret buying it in black because it shows a lot of dirt. Does great on the highway and on the inner city roads. Wouldn't trade it at the time.

Buick envision is mediocre.
Look of vehicle is nice. Trim is nice. Leather is cheap. And wood grain is fake. Car is made in china. Had issues with the battery and acoustics when opening back door is very noisy and hurts your ears. Do not hate the car but do not love it either. Wouldn't get again.
accountCircle Leonard S
Made in China. This is an American brand only not an American car.
Likes: Drivability; quiet; acceleration; comfort Dislikes: Made in China; a/c vents are poorly placed; auto stop/start technology which can not be disconnected; poor gas mileage.

That it's worth getting because of the value you get for the price
I got the vehicle because it was affordable. It drives well. I have no complaints
accountCircle Warren S
It gets really good miles to the gallon and is dependable
It has really good miles to the gallon, and I love the interior. The outside is also really classy. I also love how the drive is so smooth
accountCircle Betty B
Car too small, needs better wheels.
The car is too small for our family. It would be better to have a proper middle seat in the back. Also the seatbelts are hard to buckle because they are stuck in the seat. I would also like better tires for the car. My tires are not appropriate for winter travel.
accountCircle Zaire C
The best detail is the music.
I like my vehicle it handles good on the road and makes for a comfortable ride. It also has good acceleration. It is also very safe as well it makes it easy to transport my children. I would recommend this to anyone that wants a great car that is reliable and safe to use. This is the best. Care I have owned in my life.
accountCircle Lindsey H
Well it has good quality of sound in my opinion. Good strong lights.
My car is not really new. It is a 2010 Dodge journey. It runs very good on gas and oil. Had to change the ac but other than that it does good. Tires sometimes can be low on air pressure. But it is stable.

Seats five people. Convenient for touring. Front-wheel drive is standard.
It requires frequent gas stops. I have trouble turning the wheels. There are gasket leaks, window assembly failure and back windshields do not always work properly. I have found rust on the car because it does not hold together very well in the cold weather.
