Buick Envista Review – What’s New with the 2025 Model?

I have always been a fan of Buick because their compact, mid-size SUVs are perfect for budget buyers. Since I was planning to buy an SUV, I was excited to learn about Buick Envista. 

Like many others, I have a thing for SUVs with sloping rear backlights that look sporty and stylish. But I couldn’t buy one because of the high price tag. Thankfully, the 2025 Buick Envista breaks that trend. 

Buick launched Envista to replace the unattractive Encore. The 2025 Buick Envista feels like an enhanced version and offer sharp look along with an array of features. Additionally, it offers a spacious interior that is perfect for big families. I recently bought the car and thought of sharing my Buick Envista review with you guys. 

What’s New In 2025 Buick Envista? 

The 2025 model is packed with new features that will blow your mind. Before I tell you about the performance and other stuff, let me give you an idea of the features included. 

Buick has added a rear parking assist and a standard remote start in all trims. You even get your hands at the new color option, Aquamarine Blue Metallic. I do have my share of disappointment with the brand that they kept the majority of the features same from the 2024 model. 

Pricing 

The Buick Envista 2025 model is priced between $23,995 and $29,695, which I felt like a decent pricing in comparison to the other SUV models. The most expensive trim is the Avenir, which is equipped with 19-inch nickel-finished wheels and a premium look. 

These features make the car look more expensive than it actually is. However, none of the trims has a stronger engine or an all-wheel drive option. 

Performance 

Now let me shed some light on the performance. With a three-cylinder engine, Envista ensures a powerful driving experience, which I loved about the model. It can further accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 8.8 seconds, which makes it quicker than other small SUVs. 

The break offers an average performance, stopping at 60 mph in 125 feet. Surprisingly, it lets you control the car pretty well. 

Comfort

I will give it a 7.5/10 rating in terms of comfort. It doesn’t offer the soft, cushy ride common in other Buick cars. The engine has a distinct sound, but Buick isolates it well, allowing you to have a pleasant driving experience. 

The climate system is equipped with simple physical controls and offers strong cooling when needed. Plus, the heated steering wheel and seats warm up quickly, one of my favourites. Another notable feature is the rear air vents, which many other cars within this price range lack. 

Safety Features 

For me, the safety features were the highlight of the model and I appreciate that they offer a full suite of driver-assistance features in all Envista models, and they have done the same with the 2025 Envista as well. 

Automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and lane departure warning, are some of the safety features, which allow you to drive safely, always.

Final Verdict 

If you have to believe my verdict on the model, then I would say that 2025 Buick Envista is a great choice for those who are looking for a budget-friendly SUV. Its stylish looks, paired with good performance, make it stand out from other SUVs within this budget.
