The Buick Envision Sport Touring (ST) doesn’t always get the loud attention of some competitors — but once drivers experience it, expectations tend to change quickly.
For many shoppers visiting Arnie Bauer Buick GMC in the Chicagoland area, the Envision ST delivers a few surprises that aren’t obvious from specs alone.
Here’s what stands out most after getting behind the wheel.
1. It Feels More Premium Than Expected
The first surprise is the interior refinement.
The Envision Sport Touring features a clean, modern cabin design highlighted by a 30-inch diagonal ultra-wide display, premium materials, contrast stitching, and a flat-bottom steering wheel.
It competes comfortably with entry-luxury SUVs — without the luxury price tag.
2. The Cabin Is Exceptionally Quiet
Buick’s QuietTuning™ with Active Noise Cancellation makes a noticeable difference — especially on highways like I-57 or I-80.
Road and wind noise are significantly reduced, creating a smooth, composed ride that commuters and families appreciate.
For drivers in the South Suburbs and greater Chicagoland area, that quiet cabin adds real everyday value.
3. The Turbocharged Performance Feels Confident
Under the hood, the 2.0L turbocharged engine produces:
- 228 horsepower
- 258 lb-ft of torque
- Paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission
- Standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive
The result is responsive acceleration and confident highway merging, with added stability during Illinois winters.
Is the Buick Envision Sport Touring fast?
It’s not a performance SUV — but it delivers smooth, confident power for daily driving.
4. The Sport Touring Trim Looks Distinctly Sporty
Unlike trims that rely only on badging, the Envision ST features meaningful design upgrades:
- Gloss black mesh grille
- Black exterior accents
- 20-inch Carbon Flash Metallic wheels
- Unique ST interior details
It has a sharper, more athletic presence while maintaining Buick’s refined styling.
5. The Technology Is Modern — Without Being Overwhelming
The Envision Sport Touring includes:
- Google built-in compatibility
- Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™
- Available HD Surround Vision
- Advanced driver-assistance features
The interface is intuitive and streamlined, making everyday use simple rather than complicated.
Is the Buick Envision Sport Touring Worth It?
For shoppers comparing:

The Envision ST stands out for offering:
✔ Standard AWD
