The gloss black on the ST just takes it to another level. It's definitely the best trim, in my opinion. I do wish the infotainment screen had a better interface. It's very dull. Needs more contrast. The black background looks more gray, and the white words are faded, so it makes it harder to read. I also wish it had a more horsepower. At least a 2.0L Turbo would've been better. It's still a great entry into Buick though. For the price, I'm impressed with the overall design.
Hopefully they’ll keep adding to the options. If it had dual zone climate control, power passenger seats in the Avenir trim, and add a center arm rest in the rear they’d get my money.
The envista release in the china autoshow last year had all of these features...even the panoramic sunroof...OMG....I don't know why the USA release doesnt
I have a ebony midnight metallic st much better look l have had it 2 weeks and I think it's great rides nice I'm getting better mileage than they say inside and outside looks great l am very happy with this sports touring model
Great review. GM finally a Shark antenna on their Korean made sub compact vehicles 😮😮 i agree rear turn signals need to be higher,for better visibility. 😮😮
I have an Envista. Is it the norm for the drivers side power window, to not go up automatically like my Buick Encore did? It seems weird, you have to hold it in the up position. Unlike my Encore, you just pull it up, window goes all the way up. Not with the Envista. Or is there a trick I don’t know about? Mine is not the ST.
Like a Lambo Urus and a Tesla Model Y made love in a cheap hotel. I’m kidding, this actually looks decent… needs black logos. Get that chrome outta here.
Envista and Trax are attractive in and out. Lack of AWD is no problem Would prefer every vehicle to have blind spot monitoring and cross traffic alert, too..agree these are necessary safety provisions. My concern is that this car is more than a Toyota Corolla SE or a Honda Civic Sport. How will resale value retention be? Reliability? Durability? I think either of these GM models are a more risky purchase. Both, however, look good and run out well enough. Very good review..you make prospective buyers aware of the value proposition as well as other factors influencing selection.

It looks good. I agree. Thanks for tuning in.
Buick Envista ST!!!!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I bought this car in May. Absolutely amazing car for the price.
Great! Glad you’re enjoying it. Thanks for tuning in.
Have you noticed the dashboard turn off and back on all of a sudden?
@@stephaniecastillo3859 I have not had any issues. Had the car since May. Seems like a reliable car.

@@erikataylor6283 🤯 …. Now I just feel slighted.
Lane change / blind zone alert is available across all three trim levels of Envista. But not standard at any trim level.
i swear these looks like lifted brz/gt86's

I would call this a “Crossover”. A “CUV” if you will. An actual “SUV” is more along the lines of a Tahoe.
Not correct. Auto makers are calling these things whatever they want to. Lifted hatchback.
I own this car and a SUV. This is a small compact car, definitely not a Crossover or anything like a SUV.
I’m loving this bad boy.
The Avenir is the only trim with independent rear suspension, though. That’s not trivial.
With the cardinals 7s. I see you big dog
My wife’s 2020 Sante Fe has the turn signals down low like this.
Ever had any problems with backend collisions?
If only it was AWD.
Yes ! I’m debating to lease either this or the Honda crv..which one do you think I should go with for a lease ?
I reviewed a 23 CRV Sport Touring and it was fantastic. The CRV would be my pick.
Honda CRV

Thanks David. It’s an attractive spec. 👍
Got the same look but 2025

Yea mine does that! It only goes down automatically.

I'd gladly give up the stupid sunroof for blind spot and rear cross traffic alert and parking sensors.

Time will tell.
I have same concerns, thinking I’d selling my XSE Camry and buying this! Hope resale value isn’t horrible!
What you own? A Buick……..😂
