My grandma has a 2016 Lacrosse. That car is wonderful. The teal lighting throughout with the wrap-around accent light ties the interior together really well. The seats are nice looking and very comfortable. The gauge cluster has plenty of information and is very nice overall. The only negative thing is the center panel. Dials instead of buttons would have been nice for temp. The center screen is also slightly slow.

This is closest thing we'll ever get to a wagon from an American company. I'd seriously consider this is they came out with an "Envista GX" which offered the more powerful 1.3L, AWD, and some more luxury touches like those Bose system and cooled seats. The CX-30 is such a better choice however if you value actual utility and driving dynamics with it's much more powerful base engine and the option of the turbo with standard AWD across the board.

@Prawo_jazdy 6 ай бұрын

I went and leased one for two years in ST withiut the sunroof. You absolutely can tell where Buick cut corners but those corners are not bad or cheap, just missing. For example, the lack of express up windows on the driver only is something I had on my 2008 Saturn Aura. The just blank expanse between screens on the dash. It doesnt look cheap or bad but just non existent. Like a fine piano black void. There is plastic everywhere in the backseat. Like... Everywhere but its together really well. The motor is not as slouchy as it looks in paper. Everyone is focused on the HP and Cylinder count but not the HP to weight ratio and did anyone xomplaining see the torque? 182lb. Thats what matters for quick gettin. The 6 speed has no problems but it sure likes to get to 6 as fast as possible. Where it is wanting is freeway passing. If the person you're passing wants to be a jerk about it, theres very little chance you'll keep up as it hunts for lower gears while still staying as close to 6th as possible. But it will sacely pass on the freeway. Its not a race car. But ill say, this is the lowest you can go with the Buick nameplate. Anything less would have very much diluted everything else.

I admire how *gm* completely goes against industry standards for what makes a vehicle compact or subcompact. Nearly All of their vehicles are more spacious inside or offer more cargo space than their counterparts. The full-size SUVs are the only ones in their segment whose 3rd row leg room and _cargo_ room behind it will increase in extended versions (Yukon XL/Suburban). That’s really important to *gm* and their customers. I applaud them for that, being 6’0 tall and a bit claustrophobic. Nothing worse than purchasing a brand new vehicle and you love everything about it except you wish you had more space.

Why is it a 3 cylinder turbo… they made such a nice little package for the price. A half decent interior, good looking exterior, a SUV (popular market segment) and they chose a lousy 3 cylinder for it. And a questionably reliable one in the long term. A simple 4 cylinder turbo (quite literally the most common engine around now) or a 6 cylinder NA would’ve been so much more appealing. I hope they’ll at least offer a bigger engine option. Because simply a “slow in general traffic overtake” car is frustrating to drive and is a big deal breaker. The 3 cylinder option is fine, just give us a bigger option for those who want to pay for it because it feels like it’s killing the car’s potential within some buyers.

I had a Regal SB and really wanted the Envista when I saw it. I then saw the specs. And well, they lost a sell. How can they call that a ST with 134hp? Even with the top trim Avenir, you still get the wimpy engine and fwd. Make a 225hp, 9spd tranny, AWD, with a luxurious interior (to include rear passenger vents and a rear wiper and I might consider it. Driving a Corsair now with the 2.3L turbo.

I've heard the Trax is having a lot of electrical problems like door locks and windows only working when they want to. I haven't heard anything about the Envista though. I'm curious if anyone is experience the same problems?

Buick should have folded with the rest of them. GM should have kept Pontiac over this brand selling nothing.

Buick is waaay more popular in China Pontiac would be more attractive to younger buyers than Buick here in the States for sure

I like how it looks but I can't abide a 130 horsepower two wheel drive.

Price is a little steep for what it is. When you say it's an option (e.g. the power trunk), is it an extra at an additional price and not standard?

GM's Korea auto plant is making some sharp cars to compete with Hyundai/Kia as well as Honda and Toyota. Thanks good review.

Amazing space in the backseat. Missing armrest in the backseat is crazy to me.

Why? Almost never is anyone going to be in the back of the vehicle.

Im sure the extra cost to include the brake lights and turn signals into the upper taillamp unit would have been well worth it and a much appreciated feature..

Does 1.2 liter mean it's slow as hell?

@karlpiepenburg127 6 ай бұрын

I really like the looks of it but it needs at least a four cylinder engine to set it apart from the Trax

How is it to get in and out of? One of the things us older folk are subject to is the “I can’t get in or out of it” syndrome and therefore sedans are not desirable any longer.

Really enjoy your work guys. What the heck is Buick’s strategy these days. These cars feature really enticing design, but the power trains are lacklustre. Then again, pricing is very aggressive. A young family can get into a car that looks every bit as good as a BMW, Merc,, Toyota for an incredibly low price. (Relatively speaking of course). I think that amount of power and torque in a car that size is almost dangerous … but maybe with modern transmissions a weak engine can be overcome and it actually has passing power etc?
