I think this car (particularly the Chevy) has done an amazing job of offering you the car you need instead of the car you think you want. The only criticism I can think of that I'd consider fair when the price is this good and you're getting a car that's big enough to carry 4 adults or a rear facing child seat, and that's the fact that this would really benefit from being a hybrid. My wife has the hybrid Sportage and the extra 1200 dollars spent gives you better mileage and better acceleration. That would be a real bargain in this car if they could do it for that price.

@TheRichlazyteen 7 ай бұрын

@enjoylife7030 10 ай бұрын

For me the design looks great. The ST trim is the best looking version. As a FWD only, I wouldn't call it an SUV, guess it would be okay to call it a CUV but with no AWD option I imagine keeping cost as low as possible to produce is key. Hopefully the EPA numbers are outstanding since performance was not a major focus when they spec'd this out.

@aidensnow5017 10 ай бұрын

I don't see why not having AWD is an issue and disqualifies it an a SUV. Almost half of shoppers buy the cheaper FWD option of much larger popular SUV's whenever it's available, and 90% of AWD shoppers literally don't need/hardly use it. Honestly I think it was smart of Buick to make this the cheaper FWD only model, LOOK at it! 👀 Tell me what soul is taking THAT off-road to any degree? I get it kinda helps a bit in the snow/rain (if it's a decent system) but 99% of drivers in a FWD car with half decent tires and common sense don't really struggle with that south of the Canadian border.

I like the base model the best of the 3 trim levels for style and interior seating colors. It’s a bit Nissan Versa plasticky, but will do for the price. I also like the smaller taller sidewall tires on the base model. They are probably quieter, ride better, give better mileage with minimal overall performance trade off and will be significantly less expensive to replace down the road.

Since Chevrolet is supposed to be the bargain brand for GM, the Chevy Trax should have used the 1.2L turbo 3-cylinder engine. Then because Buick is supposed to be pseudo luxury the Envista should have used the 1.3L turbo 3-cylinder engine on the Preferred and ST trims and should have surprised everyone by putting a detuned version of the 2L turbo 4 cylinder engine in the Avenir.

Makes no sense, that would only work if they held market dominance. In reality they have multiple competitors and it's a highly competitive segment. If they intentionally jeopardized their own lineup it would only push people to other brands. More likely, the smaller engines were selected to achieve a lower price point. It seems clear that GM's strategy to gain market share is by positioning brands like Chevy and Buick as being more value-oriented. I mean, who would honestly buy them otherwise?

@marktester5799 7 ай бұрын

I think it has more to do with increasingly restrictive emissions and efficiency regulations. There is no federal rule on lifespan, so pop an underpowered micro-engine in to get those mpg numbers up (when driving unloaded on level ground), and reduce the power train warranty from 100k miles to 36k.

Questions on reliability and durability. A turbocharger strapped to a 1.2L 3 Cylinder engine is going to be VERY stressed most of the time, especially in hilly or mountainous areas. Cooling system is going to get a stress test too. FREQUENT oil changes and coolant flushes are going to be required for anything approaching "long life" - 100,000 miles. Resale value is most likely going to be abysmal. It is an handsome & attractive Daewoo, uh Buick.

@@wolfshanze5980 I know the English language is hard. I said "appear" to be shilling and that was based on specs comparison (Sounded like a car salesman) and all I said about the Buick is that reliability on Buick has been good. How is that shilling? Each to their own I guess.

3 cylinder engines are always on my avoid list after my wife and I had a bronco sport. The engines shake so much at idle. Had to trade it in for an explorer timberline with the 2.3 4cyl. Not a perfect vehicle but the engine is very stable.

Biggest downfall for me is no AWD. Want something like this as a family car

@wolfshanze5980 7 ай бұрын

Not everyone needs AWD... I suppose your answer will be "but I need to get my family out of the snow-packed roads" or something... it's those kinds of mentalities I find amazing. Not everyone deals with snow packed roads... ever hear of Florida, or anywhere else in the south... how about Global sales... like oh... I dunno... the Philippines? It doesn't have to be AWD to be a good family car.

Its pretty sad that we have to offshore our vehicles the Trax and now the Envistia the hp sounds awful weak at 137 I'd take the Trax looks nicer

Thought the same. Unfortunately the trax 24’ isn’t in yet. I’m 100% for a nice screen. At least nicer than a Chryslers 🤡 And the trax 23’ has a goof screen. Unless someone is in a rush to get a ride I’d wait for the trax as well

People can afford it. But damn a 3cyl motor? How reliable is it?

@carhoarder602 9 ай бұрын

Why do they keep putting 3 cylinder engines? Same with Chevy trax. At least offer 2 or 3 engine sizes

@wolfshanze5980 7 ай бұрын

Because people demand sub-30K cars... then when you cut costs to get them a sub-30K car, they complain it's too cheap. If you want a bigger engine there's tons of options out there... but you're going to pay more than 30K for it.

All automotive manufacturers need to go back to basics. As Ford and VW knew this from the start, you Build an Affordable car for the Masses and they will come. Who ever thought we'd live to see the day you'd have to get a 7 to ten year "mortgage" on a car. Can America build the affordable peoples car? Yes we have, and yes can 🇺🇸

Reasonably priced considering, but the screens are gonna be horrible with glare.

@wolfshanze5980 7 ай бұрын

Modern screens dont care about glare... I have a 2023 Tucson Hybrid, Hyundai was so confident about glare not being an issue at all, that the driver gauge cluster is 100% digital screen WITH NO SUN SHADE OVER IT AT ALL... I live in Florida, and have a panoramic sunroof... I can get a fully Florida sunny summer day with the sunroof open, no cover over the gauge cluster... and... I can read it just fine, not one problem with glare. I assume GM did the same with the Trax/Envista... if they didn't, shame on them, the tech is out there.
