As you shop for a new SUV, it's important to explore your options and see how different models stack up. At Jo-Dan Buick GMC, we believe the Buick Envision is an excellent choice that outshines competitors like the Chevrolet Equinox, Jeep Compass, and Lincoln Corsair. But don't take our word for it - check out our comparison and see for yourself.
The Chevy Equinox is a popular compact SUV, but it falls short of the Buick Envision in several areas. The Equinox has a 170-hp 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, which feels underpowered compared to the Envisions 228-hp 2.0-liter engine. With the second row folded down, the Equinox does have more cargo space with 63.9 cu.-ft. of cargo space. However, the Envision offers plenty of room, too. With the seats up, the Envision offers 25.2 cu.-ft. and with the second row folded, it has 52.7 cu.-ft.
When it comes to technology, the Envision pulls ahead with its standard Buick Infotainment System, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone integration, and available 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot. The Equinox offers similar features, but its infotainment system is not as intuitive as the Envision's. Safety-wise, both SUVs come standard with forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking. However, the Envision goes a step further by also including lane-keeping assist with lane departure warnings as standard equipment.
The Jeep Compass is a rugged, compact SUV with some offroad capability. However, it can't match the on-road refinement and overall performance of the Buick Envision. The Compass's 180-hp 2.4-liter engine feels sluggish in comparison to the Envision's turbocharged 228-hp powertrains. The Envision also provides a quieter ride thanks to its QuietTuning technology with Active Noise Cancellation - a feature the Compass lacks.
In terms of cargo capacity, the Compass offers 59.8 cu ft with the rear seats folded - slightly more than what the Envision offers. Though, the Envision does offer more passenger space and a more upscale cabin with premium materials. While the Compass has available safety features like adaptive cruise control and automatic high-beam headlamps, these come standard on the Envision as part of the comprehensive Buick Driver Confidence suite.
For shoppers in the Wilkes-Barre area seeking a well-equipped, comfortable compact SUV, the Buick Envision is a far more compelling choice than the more rough-and-tumble Jeep Compass. Consider stopping by Jo-Dan Buick GMC to finance with us and experience the Envision's distinctive advantages for yourself.
The Lincoln Corsair is a luxury compact SUV that competes in a higher price bracket than the Buick Envision. While both models offer similar 2.0-liter turbocharged engines and comparable cargo capacity (the Corsair has 57.6 cu ft with seats folded vs the Envision's 52.7 cu ft), the Envision delivers better overall value.
The Envision's interior is just as refined as the Corsair's, with premium soft-touch materials, integrated technology, and a rich design. It also has more user-friendly infotainment and connectivity features. Both SUVs offer advanced safety suites - Lincoln's Co-Pilot360 vs Buick's Driver Confidence package. However, the Envision makes more of these cutting-edge safety technologies standard rather than optional.
With its attainable luxury, the Buick Envision stands out as the smart choice for Scranton SUV shoppers. It offers refinement and features similar to the Lincoln Corsair, all at a more accessible price point. The Envision also outshines the Jeep Compass and Chevy Equinox in terms of performance.
To experience the Envision's stellar performance and value for yourself, stop by Jo-Dan Buick GMC and check out the new Buick Envision today.
