The whole series of 2.0T+48V mild hybrid, with a 30-inch integrated screen, can it be fired?
Envision completed the application of the mid-term facelift a few months ago, and the Envision S and Envision PLUS began to converge, but just like the new generation of family design language we see in the "Shuangjun" sedan array, a more personalized sports style began to appear on this so-called "middle-aged exclusive SUV" to continue to attract more young consumers.
As we can see in the footage, both the Envision S and Envision PLUS feature a trapezoidal grille pattern, and at both ends of the deflector slots, we see plug-in sharp trim strips that work with separate deflectors with high beams at both ends to improve overall turbulence. At the same time, there are corresponding ventilation and heat dissipation vents under the grille, and chrome plating material is also added here to improve passability.
However, as we can see across the body, the Envision S/Envision PLUS will maintain a wide black hard-molded surround regardless of the version, which is designed to help the vehicle maintain the multi-road driving attributes of an SUV. And from the rear, the Envision S will maintain the family's long-standing arrow light cluster design, and the chrome metal will be used to connect to the exhaust tailpipe. The Envision PLUS completes the through-type taillight strip mixed with chrome, and the thicker chrome strip will exist independently on the top of the bumper, which will look thicker and more "age-like" than the Envision S.
In addition, in some details, both cars will provide a variety of wheel options, and will provide panoramic sunroof, luggage rack and ETC device, in addition, the two cars also provide a variety of solutions in the door system, exterior mirror camera and front and rear radar, according to the adaptive cruise radar that appears in the front bumper, Envision S/Envision PLUS is expected to be supported by GM's Super Cruise super driver assistance system. As for the exterior, we also see the Avenir nameplate on some models, which represents the luxury trim version, which will bring more luxurious interior and exterior trim and materials to the car.
In terms of size, Envision S has a length, width and height of 4641/1883/1638 (1647) mm and a body wheelbase of 2779mm, which is only slightly different from the current model due to the exterior design, while Envision PLUS has a length, width and height of 4822/1883/1695mm and a wheelbase of 2833mm.
Although we have not yet seen the interior design of the actual car, judging from the official preview pictures exposed by overseas media, we can already confirm that Envision will not be limited to the appearance like the remodelling of the Regal, the cockpit will get a new generation of irregular curved curved screen, the dashboard and touch screen will be completed through, as for whether it is the same as the Buick E5 30.0-inch integrated screen is unknown, and the buttons and interactive bar on the steering wheel once again prove that we have a previous Super Cruise's guess, and from this angle we can also see the electric memory function of the main driver's seat.
In terms of power, Envision will not adjust the powertrain in all series, and it will inherit the Ecotec 1.5T turbocharged engine and 2.0T turbocharged engine of the current vehicle, the former provides a maximum power of 155kW (211Ps) and a maximum torque of 270Nm, and the latter provides a maximum power of 174kW (237Ps) and a maximum torque of 350Nm, and is expected to be able to break 100 in 7 seconds. And from the previous declaration map optional configuration part we can also see the "AWD" tail mark, which indicates that the vehicle will also be equipped with an intelligent and timely four-wheel drive system.
Write at the end
Buick Envision since entering the Chinese auto market, that is, one of the leaders in the mid-size SUV market, and the competition with the Volkswagen Tiguan L has continued for several years, and now, with more products entering the new energy time, Envision is also trying to carry out the initial attempt and transition through 48V mild hybrid. In the case that Buick has already launched the Buick E5, this mid-term facelift of Envision will form an "energy twin star" for Buick in the mid-size SUV market, helping it become the most versatile all-rounder in the new energy era belonging to Chinese brands.
