Thinking of buying the 2017 Buick Envision?
No 2017 Buick Envision is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 2017 Buick Envision for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
Before you sign for the Envision
There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. NHTSA has 81 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, service brakes and engine. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
What the specs mean
The engine is the 2.5L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
At 9.4 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 28 litres of fuel. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $14.57, and a 300 km weekend about $43.71. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,700 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Space and size
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length. EPA lists 736 litres of luggage space, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who the Envision suits
It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week with the Envision answers more than any brochure. Rent the Envision for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
Running costs
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.57 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $145.70 at our price setting. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
Choosing the right one
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Within the 2017 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
