Buick tells us the focus is on the customer
The 2019 Buick Envision crossover has a new face, a new price and new mechanical internal organs that abide by customer feedback on the 2016 Buick Envision.
So, what's new for the 2019 Envision? A nine-speed automatic transmission can now be married to the 2-liter turbo engine which saw its performance go up to 252 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque.
The 2019 Buick Envision retains the 2.5-liter powerplant mated to the same six-speed automatic. The engine makes 197 hp and 147 lb-ft of twist and is available with either front- or all-wheel drive.
Also new are the non-latching stop/start system deactivation button positioned on the dashboard, HID headlights on 2.5-liter models and LED headlights on 2-liter models.
Tech-wise, customers get an 8-inch tactile infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot and a limited trial of OnStar.
If it's safety that you're putting a high price on, then you should know that every 2019 Buick Envision offers 10 airbags, rear park assist, surround vision and forward automatic braking.
