About 2016 Buick Envision
The 2016 Envision is an all-new luxury compact crossover with segment-challenging driving dynamics, advanced technology, connectivity and Buick's trademark interior acoustics. It is a global vehicle, designed from the ground up as a Buick luxury compact crossover.
Envision features Buick's signature winged headlamps and standard heated outside mirrors with LED turn signal indicators. Articulating Xenon high-intensity discharge headlamps are available.
A new steering wheel for Buick debuts in the Envision, featuring thumb-operated toggle switches that make it easy to scroll through the IntelliLink menus and vehicle features in the driver information center.
The Envision's interior features a "floating," wraparound instrument panel sweeps into the door panels, for a flowing, organic and inviting appearance that complements the exterior.
The large center console storage bin features damped dual wing-type doors that provide easier, less-obstructed access and allow the driver or passengers to access the storage bin without disturbing the other.
The 2016 Envision features a standard 2.0L turbo engine certified at 252 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. It is paired with a third-generation six-speed automatic transmission. Performance and efficiency is enhanced with Stop/Start technology -- Buick's first application on the 2.0L turbo engine. It seamlessly shuts down the engine when the Envision comes to a stop under certain driving conditions, such as a stoplight. The engine automatically restarts when the driver takes his or her foot off the brake.
The Envision's robust structure is the foundation for a balanced and confident driving experience. Buick's HiPer Strut front suspension reduces torque steer and benefits steering feel. It's a feature inspired by the athletic Regal GS sedan and that is not currently offered on any crossover vehicle.
