  • The 2024 Buick Envista is here, but will its 1.2 liter ECOTEC Three Cylinder Engine be able to get you on the highway? Does the 3 cyl engine have enough power for the Buick Envista? Is 137 horsepower and 162 torque enough for the Envista? We will find out with this test drive!

    I love the looks of this car. I feel like they could have made it slightly more expensive and put a good engine in it, or make it a hybrid or ev. This looks WAY better than the bolt euv. If this was the way a Bolt EUV looked instead of the ugly body that it has that would be sitting in my driveway now instead of the Tesla Model Y.

    The Tac is in gauge choice #2 Press & hold the spin wheel a on the right side of the steering wheel for 2 seconds and you will see your cluster choices.

    6:20 One of the gauge cluster settings actually does show a tachometer in this car. I saw it in a different review for the Envista, so I couldn't tell you exactly which setting it is. It would surround the digital speedometer just like the setting you have it at this point in the video.

    • @CarDietrich

      Interesting, I couldn’t find it in the settings for either this Envista Preferred or the Chevrolet Trax Activ I drove last year. I wonder if that Envista was one of the higher end packages with extra features?

      On the right side of the steering wheel if you hold and press down on the dial you can change your gauge cluster view and one of them has a tachometer

    In my town in Florida I've only seen four of them. Only one person was older. 😆 Were you able to get comfortable? I know from having a loaner and a rental of other GM compact vehicles the seat cushions always struck me as a little small and short (rather poor thigh support).

    • @CarDietrich
      @CarDietrich  5 месяцев назад +1

      Personally yes I was able to get comfortable (I also got comfortable in the Chevy Trax earlier this year) but I am not very picky about seat cushion length, despite my size

    Try it on E85 yet? A turbo'd engine with optional flex fuel technology makes me curious.

    It isn't so much the horsepower rating that makes someone think twice. I think its the very very small 1.2 liter engine with just 3 cylinders. If it works, though, it works, no problem. They probably won't be implementing any fancy cylinder deactivated technology on the car. 😊

      For me its the Timing Belt, that the 3cyl 1.2L has - I've never liked them. The slightly larger 3cyl 1.3L that comes with AWD on 2024 Buicks has a Timing Chain.

    • @jayson657
      @jayson657 5 месяцев назад

      To add insult to injury the timing belt runs through the engine oil which is an awful idea. Just look at Ford’s tiny Ecoboost turbo engines that self destruct with the belt in oil design. A dry timing belt though cheap would be fine as long as it’s not an interference engine where the pistons crash into the valves if the belt were to fail.

      @@Bowhunters6go8xz6x That extra 0.1 liters make all the difference! OK, just kidding. I didn't know that about the timing chain. For sure I'd avoid the 1.2 if I planned to keep this for any length of time.

    It was sounding interesting until you mentioned Daewoo. There was a time when Daewoo was probably the WORST car on the planet. However, that was enough years ago that, perhaps, they have cleaned up their act. My concern for this car - and its sister Trax - is that TINY 3-cylinder turbo motor. Variants of that motor have been around long enough to have earned a BAD reputation for long term reliability. It will probably last out the warrantee but go boom soon after.

    • @CarDietrich
      @CarDietrich  3 месяца назад

      I'm surprised that "We Are The Land Rovers" would be concerned with long term reliability! Joking, of course. I think that with proper maintenance and oil changes, this engine will be just as good as any other new car on the road today. Small displacement turbos are becoming the order of the day for most manufacturers now, and if you search the internet for problems you'll find horror stories for every make and model. This 1.2 might be one of the smaller engines out there, but I wouldn't let it stop me from buying one.

      Honda/Nissan/Toyota aficionado here. Hi!
      Fast forward two decades to the 1950s. Communist Dictator Mao Zedong branded Buick as a symbol of Western Imperialism and banned the auto brand, particularly due to anti-American sentiment from the Korean War (June 25, 1950 to July 27, 1953), which pitted Communist China fighting alongside Communist North Korea against American and other western forces that came to the aid of South Korea.
      A bit about my family history during this time, for I myself actually am a descendant of one of these KW veterans. My maternal grandfather, Edward Allen Brown, graduated from the United States Military Academy on June 3, 1952 with a BS in Civil Engineering. He was subsequently deployed to Korea to help clear away land mines in Yanggu and Chuncheon (both in Gangwon Province, South Korea). On July 27, 1953, "Ebbie" (as we called him) was on the scene when the Armistice between the two sides (United States, United Nations and South Korea on one side, and China and North Korea on the other) was signed at Panmunjom (border town between the two Koreas in the central part of the Korean peninsula). For his bravery in Korea, Ebbie was awarded both a Purple Heart 💜 and a Bronze Star. Unfortunately, Ebbie passed away from metastatic colon cancer on December 30, 2023 at the age of 94.
      Since my grandfather's passing, I have been devoting my life to honoring his legacy.
