It’s time to meet the 2021 Buick Envision, a compact SUV loaded with style inside and out. This versatile SUV has the power to get you around town and the capability to conquer the road when you leave the pavement behind. It comes with the latest tech to keep you connected no matter where your life takes you, plus it has all the comfortable amenities you’ve come to expect from Buick. Let’s take a closer look at the trim levels of the 2021 Buick Envision.

Curb Appeal

Buick offers the crossover SUV Envision in three trim levels, Preferred, Essence, and Avenir. All have subtle styling differences, yet all remain unmistakably a Buick Envision. A signature grille framed by wing-shaped LED headlights, and a sculpted hood gives the front fascia a bold, aggressive look. The chiseled sides, low stance, and available 20-inch wheels with a premium finish highlight the Envision’s athletic posture. A programmable power liftgate with logo projection rounds out the signature rear design.

2021 Buick Envision Preferred Trim

The 2021 Buick Envision base model Preferred comes nicely equipped on the outside with 18-inch aluminum wheels with a Bright Silver finish wrapped in all-season blackwall tires. It also features heated power outside mirrors, silver roof rails, and an LED lighting system that includes the taillights, daytime running lights, and Intellibeam headlights.

Premium cloth seats come standard with the eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat and a six-way manual passenger seat. You can upgrade to heated front seats as an option. The standard leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel has the option for heating and controls the radio, cruise control, and phone. Buick’s QuietTuning technology features active noise cancellation to block engine and road noise for a quiet ride.

A single-zone climate control system operates manually. The 60/40 split-folding rear seat offers multiple cargo configurations. You have 25.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the back seat. With the rear seat folded, your cargo area increases to 52.7 cubic feet. The ambient interior lighting system adds a sophisticated style. The 2021 Buick Envision Preferred trim comes with a six-speaker audio system with an HD radio.

Your in-vehicle tech runs through the 8-inch color touch screen. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Bluetooth support allow you to sync your smartphones for hands-free operation. You can access navigation information, stream your favorite music, and more with simple, intuitive voice commands. A teen driver system lets you customize the Envision’s settings and systems linked with a key fob. This system gives you in-vehicle report cards to help you coach your new driver.

Under the hood, you have a 2.0-liter EcoTec turbocharged four-cylinder engine with start/stop technology that deactivates if you prefer. This engine gets paired with an electronically controlled nine-speed automatic transmission with overdrive and driver shift control technology. The Envision’s powertrain gives you 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque.

2021 Buick Envision Essence Trim

The 2021 Buick Envision Essence trim adds to the above features with upgraded 18-inch machined aluminum wheels with Charcoal Metallic finish on the exterior. Inside, you get upgraded leather seats and an eight-way power-adjustable passenger seat. Both the front seats and the steering wheel are heated. A dual-zone climate control system lets the driver and front passenger customize their comfort settings.

An upgraded 8.2-inch driver information screen displays all your critical driving data on the Essence trim. You get memory settings for the driver’s seat and outside mirrors for multiple drivers. A seven-speaker enhanced audio system with an amplifier replaces the six-speaker system. The infotainment center comes with a larger, 10.2-inch touch screen.

2021 Buick Envision Avenir Trim

The top-of-the-line 2021 Buick Envision Avenir rolls on stylish 20-inch aluminum wheels with Avenir Pearl Nickel finish. The tailgate upgrades to a power liftgate with programmable height adjustment and a logo projection that illuminates the ground beneath it when open.

Inside, you have the option for a power moonroof with a sunshade that extends over the back seat. The front seats add ventilation, while the rear outboard seats add heating capability. The driver’s seat now has a massage function.

A nine-speaker audio system from Bose comes standard. This audio system features AudioPilot technology that automatically adjusts volume and equalization effects based on cabin noise. The 10.2-inch infotainment screen has built-in navigation and a surround vision camera system that sends live video from around the Envision to help you see what’s around you when parking.

Driver-Assist Technology

The Envision comes with up to nine driver-assist systems designed to elevate your driving experience and keep you safer. Every trim includes a safety alert seat that uses directional vibrations to the front, right, or left, indicating the direction of incident alerts. Systems like the forward collision alert use sensors to scan the road ahead, alerting you to potential hazards. Should you fail to react, the enhanced automatic emergency braking system will activate, adding brake support to help lessen or avoid a possible impact.

The following distance indicator warns you when you get too close to the vehicle ahead. The front pedestrian braking system identifies when a pedestrian crosses ahead of you and will brake if you fail to notice. A lane-change alert with side blind zone alert system helps you change lanes with confidence. This system uses sensors to alert you when vehicles enter your blind spots while making a lane-changing maneuver. Lane-keep assist with lane-departure warning tracks the Envision when traveling within marked lanes. This system uses gentle steering correction to keep you centered and warns you when detecting an unintentional drift.

Rear cross-traffic alert uses sensors to warn you when a car approaches from the sides while backing up. The rear park assist system assists you by projecting a live view from behind to your infotainment screen, complete with distance indicators. The IntelliBeam auto high beams toggle from high to low beam when detecting oncoming traffic, turning back to high beam when the way ahead clears. Adaptive cruise control uses radar and cameras to keep the Envision at a preset distance to the car ahead while in traffic.
