If you’re looking to experience ultimate comfort in your next SUV, you’ll find it in the Buick Envision and the Toyota RAV4. Thanks to premium features, deluxe textiles, and helpful amenities, you’re able to transform these SUVs into your personal oasis.
You need space, and the Buick Envision and the Toyota RAV4 have it. As far as available space goes, the Buick and the Toyota ride alongside each other. The Buick offers 100.4 cubic feet of passenger volume, while the Toyota supplies 98.9 cubic feet.
When it comes to amenities, though, differences distinguish these two vehicles. You’re afforded available heat, ventilation, and massage controls for your Buick driver’s seat. It can also be furnished with deluxe leather appointments.
If you look at the interior of the Toyota, the front seats can be equipped with heat and ventilation, but there are no massage elements for your seat. You may not be able to pick leather, but the available SofTex®-trimmed seats do provide comfortable seating.
An available dual-zone automatic climate control system appears in the Envision, so front riders can enjoy their own preferred temperatures. The RAV4 also has this available system, and both models also offer an available Hands-Free power liftgate.
Want to feel confident and secure on the road? Look to the standard driver-assistance features on the Buick Envision and the Toyota RAV4! However, if you want greater peace of mind while parking, the Buick will deliver.
Several driver-assist systems play a key role in helping keep you safe in either the Buick Envision or the Toyota RAV4. In fact, Toyota pulls all the standard systems together through its Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0 suite.
Once you move on to more specialized systems, the Buick reigns supreme. Teen Driver enables you to set limitations on some features and monitor your rookie driver’s driving practices. The Toyota does not have this.
Whether you simply want a warning not to bump into obstacles or need a lot of help with a tough parking situation, the Buick can be your guide. Rear Park Assist comes standard, while Front Park Assist can be added for those times when you need to squeeze into a tight spot. For help with parallel parking, rely on the available Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist.
The Toyota gains some help through the optional Front and Rear Parking Assist, but that’s it. You won’t have that extra guidance needed to tackle a tough but doable parallel parking situation.
Do you want to leave a lasting impression on the road? Do you want to feel limitless when you drive? If so, you’re in good hands with the Buick Envision and the Toyota RAV4. These sporty SUVs perform naturally to provide a truly dynamic ride on smooth or bumpy terrain.
Despite the Toyota sporting a larger engine, the Buick prevails in the performance category as well. It comes with a 2.0L ECOTEC Turbo engine that can pump out 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque.
Yes, the Toyota has a 2.5L Dynamic Force 4-cylinder engine under the hood. However, it pumps out just 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, which means you’ll get more pep from your Buick.
Adjusting to diverse conditions on the road takes a transmission that can seamlessly switch between gears. The Buick uses a 9-speed automatic transmission.
With the Toyota, you almost get an equal amount of flexibility when it comes to gears, since the RAV4 provides an 8-speed automatic transmission.
