Buick Envoy review.
This 2026 model is big and ponderous but rides nicely and quietly. 3-row SUVs are ridiculous rentals for a solo occupant.
Acceleration is okay, but throttle response is poor, especially initiating acceleration after lane clears with adaptive cruise. Annoying as hell.
Steering wanders a bit on lousy SoCal freeways.
Nice fancy curved display screen with unusually small reverse/360 camera display section.
Remote start is extremely responsive (Honda Accord was hit or miss) but with these options you’d expect power-tilt steering. Also the dead pedal box is a bit intrusive in relation to pedal positions.
Skip and volume controls are clever buttons behind the steering wheel near the shifter paddles.
Weird having the shifter as a steering column stalk. Personally prefer cruise controls on a stalk
Inductive charging space is large, but never liked how it heats the phone. Prefer to put wallet or snacks there.
Heaving steering and NO idea where the parking camera activation is because it doesn’t come on when pulling forward.
Makes ALL SORTS of loud noises after parking.

916CnC, EuroSunday and mentions of Niello dealer group host an excellent car show at the Granite Bay Golf Course on Tuesday, June 30th.
I called it, “The Quail of Granite Bay”. It was very good and food was offered. Attendance was free and a great venue!
