The 2026 Buick Envista is powered by a 1.2L Turbo ECOTEC engine that delivers 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque-enough punch for brisk, responsive acceleration perfect for city driving and highway merging. A 6-speed automatic transmission provides smooth, efficient power delivery. Fuel economy is a strong suit: the Envista achieves up to 28 city mpg and 32 highway mpg, making it one of the most efficient choices in the compact crossover segment. The lighter frame and responsive handling create excellent everyday practicality with a dynamic edge. Standard StabiliTrak(R) Electronic Stability Control adds confidence in various road conditions without compromising the engaging drive feel. The result is a vehicle that balances performance, efficiency, and fun-ideal for value-conscious drivers who don't want to sacrifice driving pleasure.
