Bitauto Original Youth and sportiness are the mainstream directions of car design today, and more and more car companies are also embodying this design style in their new cars. The Buick brand, which has always been mature and prudent in our impression, has finally taken a big step towards rejuvenation. The new compact SUV-Envista adopts the shape of a coupe SUV. The overall design is young and avant-garde. This may be Buick's new compact SUV. It is an attempt for the brand to completely move towards youth.
Advanced and fashionable appearance design
Buick Envista adopts the latest PURE Design design concept. This design language is also used for the first time on Buick’s pure electric concept car Electra-X. Looking at the designs of Envista and Electra-X, they have the same purpose. PURE Design can be simply translated as pure design concept. The official explanation for this is "taking the user's perceptual experience as the starting point, with Purity, Unconventional, Refined, and Expressive as the core. Purer, smarter and more comfortable design aesthetics realize the infinite artistic conception of beautiful travel." My understanding of this is to abandon complex design styles and adopt the most direct and pure design ideas to resonate with users and highlight their unique personality.
The front face of the high-spirited Envista is quite avant-garde. The overall design is centered on Buick's latest "tri-color shield" brand logo and spreads out to both sides. Sharp fold lines are used to make the vehicle look angular. The lower part of the front face uses a large trapezoidal grille and is decorated with thick chrome trim strips. It can be seen that Envista has not forgotten to enhance the sophistication of the front face of the vehicle while creating a sporty atmosphere.
The Envista adopts a split headlight design. The upper LED daytime running lights adopt a spread-wing design. The real LED headlight groups are distributed on both sides of the bumper. They are rich in details and fully demonstrate the sense of luxury.
The Envista's body shape is different from a traditional SUV, and is closer to a coupe SUV. The smooth lines run through the side of the body, extending from the front fender to the taillight, and intersect with the hatchback rear design, which is very smooth. In addition, there are decorative strips on the side of the car that extend from the A-pillar to the rear of the car, which enhances the car's sense of refinement and fashion. However, the Envista does not use a two-color body. If it does, it should make the vehicle more fashionable. As for the body size, the length, width and height of the Envista are 4638/1816/1565mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2700mm. The wheelbase data occupies a certain advantage among models of the same level, which can ensureto ensure ample space inside the vehicle.
At the rear of the car, the long and narrow taillight group shape echoes the front daytime running lights, creating a rich sense of hierarchy through the outline of the tail lines. Moreover, the tail also has a slightly upturned ducktail design, which makes the waistline extending from the side of the car have a gathering effect, making the vehicle design have an upward trend at the end. Perhaps this can be regarded as consistent with the "high-spirited" name of the car. It fits.
It is also worth mentioning that the Envista also has a GS version, which will be equipped with exclusive design packages such as a black mesh sports grille, 18-inch black sports wheels and red calipers. The GS version will have a more distinctive Trendy texture. Moreover, the regular version of the model will also have a variety of youthful colors, which is also part of the youthfulness of the vehicle.
The interior quality has been significantly improved
In addition to the car, the interior design of Envista also implements the PURE Design concept, which greatly improves the texture of the entire interior. The entire cockpit adopts an all-in-one design, connecting the left and right doors through curves, which further stretches the horizontal visual width, making the entire cockpit efficient and transparent. In terms of interior materials, the Envista is wrapped in a large area of soft materials, in addition to piano paint trim and chrome trim strips. Coupled with dual 10.25-inch large screens, it enhances the overall sense of technology in the car and makes the interior cabin both high-end and functional.
As for the dual 10.25-inch large screens, it is equipped with Buick’s latest eConnect intelligent interconnection technology. The overall UI interface has a flat design and also supports custom card-style interaction. In terms of in-vehicle applications, Suixinkan App has video resources provided by iQiyi and other platforms. Baidu Maps car version has been further optimized in terms of functions and operations. It also supports gesture operations and can use the "three-guide navigation flying screen" to navigate the central control Slide to the full LCD instrument panel display. In addition, Envista has also been upgraded in terms of in-car voice interaction. The new Baidu intelligent voice system supports functions such as mid-interruption, multi-round conversations, encyclopedia Q&A, information query, screen typewriter, and personalized pronunciation selection. In addition, the car system also supports OTA remote upgrade and wireless CarPlay function, bringing a smarter and more convenient experience.
The central control area adopts a split design. The upper layer is equipped with dual 10.25-inch large screens, the middle layer is for physical adjustment buttons for the air conditioner, and the lower layer is equipped with wireless charging and USB interfaces. The functional areas are clearly divided for daily use. Provides a lot of convenience.
In terms of seats, Envista uses quilting technology. This sewing technology is mostly used in today’s most successful luxury brands.to create exquisite luggage products. Of course, the use of quilting technology on vehicles will also make the seats more fashionable and beautiful. In addition, Envista's seats also use suede fabric and the same DHH dual-hardness foam technology as Envista, taking into account support and long-distance comfort.
In terms of space performance, a 178cm tall passenger sitting in the front row will have about a punch of headroom. Coming to the back row, the headroom is only one punch, and the knee room is more than two punches. It is worth mentioning that the rear floor also remains flat.
In addition, the entire Envista has up to 28 storage spaces, and the trunk can be expanded to a maximum of 1273L, which is enough to meet daily use needs.
As for the Envista GS version, it also has an exclusive all-black interior with red stitching, exclusive sports seats with GS logo embroidery, aluminum foot pedals and other equipment, making the interior more fashionable. In fact, the models in this real shot are all the GS version of the Envista. The regular version will use more chrome decoration to make the vehicle look more refined. The GS version also needs to highlight the trend of the vehicle.
Power parameters are leading in the same class
The Envista is equipped with a 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 132kW. The torque data has not yet been announced. The engine is matched with a CVT gearbox. The suspension adopts a combination of front MacPherson independent suspension and rear torsion beam non-independent suspension.
Editor's comment: The Envista is obviously an important attempt for the Buick brand to become younger. At present, it seems that the Envista has its own distinctive style, and it has both personality and sophistication in the exterior and interior. The emergence of Envista can make Buick more competitive in the compact SUV field, and a richer product matrix can also meet the personalized and diversified needs of more consumers.
