Buick has revealed the all-new 2021
Envision premium SUV, which is set to arrive at dealers early next year.
Following a leak of the Chinese market version called the Envision GX back in
March, Buick has released the first bit of information on the new 2021
Envision. The design of Buick’s latest SUV is quite athletic, with clean lines
and a strong shoulder line. The front end is dominated by a wide grille and
slim headlights while the rear follows suit with the almost seamlessly
integrated taillights complimenting the model’s toned hips.
Buick hasn’t shared that much at this
point on the all-new Envision but has confirmed that it will be offered with a
turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired to a nine-speed automatic transmission.
This sounds like the same powertrain offered in the Cadillac XT4, where it
makes 237 HP and 350 Nm of torque. Previous
reports also said that an all-wheel-drive system will be an option.
The new Buick Envision will become the
company’s first model to offer a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system that
will come with built-in Amazon Alexa, Spotify, Pandora, and of course Apple Car
Play and Android Auto. Buick will offer the 2021 Envision with plenty of active
safety kit as standard, including Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian
Braking, Lane Keep Assist, Forward Collision Alert, Rear Park Assist, and HD
Rear Vision Camera among others.
The company’s new premium SUV will be also
offered in the luxurious Avenir trim line, which will probably feature a
model-specific front grille design, different wheels, extended leather
upholstery, and more. As to where it’s produced, the current model is made in
China, but Buick did not mention anything in the press release for the new car.
We reached out to Buick but have yet to hear back from them.
Buick said it will reveal more details on
the new 2021 Envision later this year.
