“There's issues with the radio. It auto connects to my Apple CarPlay and won't disconnect and play the radio without totally disconnecting the phone. Sometimes it gets stuck in phone mode and the audio is even more messed up.”
2024 Buick Envista: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2024 Buick Envista is an all-new model and the first Envista sold in the U.S. It launches as a compact crossover with Preferred, Sport Touring, and Avenir trims.
About the 2024 Buick Envista
First generation, first U.S. model year.
Buick positions the Envista as a style-first compact crossover for drivers moving out of sedans or basic small SUVs who still want easy city size, useful cargo space, a quiet cabin, and modern tech. The pitch focuses on sleek looks, a wide digital dashboard, and everyday comfort rather than towing or off-road ability. It is meant to feel more upscale than a typical entry crossover while staying easy to live with and efficient for daily driving.
The Preferred serves as the tech-focused entry trim, with an 11-inch touchscreen, an 8-inch driver display, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Sport Touring adds a more athletic look rather than extra power, while Avenir emphasizes comfort with leather-appointed front seats, heated front seats, wireless phone charging, and a power liftgate.
