With its coupe-like silhouette, the Envista gains a unique styling element in a sea of compact crossovers.
While the damper tuning might be different between brands, the Envista feels largely the same as its Trax counterpart. That is good. The Envista’s suspension works well to soften the bumps and offers reasonable control over the car’s inputs. The steering is admittedly numb and maybe not as precise as you’d want from a sports sedan, but the Envista isn’t trying to be that.If you’re wondering where the Envista sets itself apart from the Trax, that’s in the interior and the exterior styling.
Inside, the Envista’s dashboard looks and feels more mature than that of the Trax. Instead of massive round air vents, the Buick’s side air vents are blended elegantly into the dash and follow the same design as the rest of Buick’s lineup.Both the Buick and Chevrolet sport a massive screen panel that’s home to the digital instrumentation and touchscreen media system. Combined, the 11-inch infotainment screen and 8.0-inch digital instrument cluster span 19 inches of screen space.
The Envista repositions Buick’s entry point to make it more attractive to prospective buyers. It starts at $23,495 and is set to hit dealers later this month. Of course, that’s stepping up a few thousand dollars from the base-model Chevrolet Trax, which starts at $21,495. That’s not an insignificant leap, but it does net you a more mature interior and a more stylish small lifted wagon crossover.
