Following its debut last year, for 2017, the Buick Envision adds two trim levels to slot in beneath both Premium and Premium II--a base Essence trim and a mid-level Preferred trim. These are powered by a new naturally aspirated 2.5L 4-cylinder, with power sent to either the front wheels or all four wheels through a 6-speed automatic transmission.

The Buick Envision occupies a growing segment in the marketplace. It's a compact luxury crossover in the mold of the Acura RDX and the Lincoln MKC. While small SUVs have classically been somewhat Spartan, this new segment of compact luxury crossovers comes with all the bells and whistles a buyer could want. The Envision is no different, with a powerful engine and a long list of standard features. The base price for the 2017 Envision is in the mid-$40,000 range.
