2026 Buick Envista: Trims, Specs, and Pricing in Hot Springs, AR

The 2026 Buick Envista is a compact crossover that starts at $24,700 and returns up to 30 MPG combined from its turbocharged 1.2L 3-cylinder engine. With seating for five, an Ultrawide 11" diagonal HD touchscreen, and up to 42.0 cubic feet of cargo room with the rear seats folded, it handles the daily drive down Central Avenue and the weekend run out to Lake Hamilton with equal ease.

At Allen Tillery Buick GMC in Hot Springs, our family has helped Arkansas drivers find the right vehicle since 1967. This guide walks through the Envista's engine, its three trim levels, technology, interior space, and safety equipment so you can decide which configuration fits your budget and your driving. When you are ready, you can browse our current Envista inventory above or schedule a test drive.

2026 Buick Envista Engine and Fuel Economy

The Envista keeps things simple under the hood. Every trim, Preferred, Sport Touring, and Avenir, uses the same turbocharged 1.2L 3-cylinder engine rated at 137 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 162 lb-ft of torque at 2,500 rpm. Power runs through a 6-speed automatic transmission to the front wheels, and front-wheel drive is the only configuration offered across the lineup.

That powertrain is tuned for efficiency rather than outright speed. The EPA estimates 28 MPG city, 32 MPG highway, and 30 MPG combined, and a standard stop/start system trims fuel use in town traffic. With a 13.2-gallon tank, that translates to comfortable highway range for trips toward Little Rock or down through Malvern. The Envista is not engineered to tow, so if you need available all-wheel drive or light trailering, the Buick Encore GX or the larger Envision are the better fit.

Buick Envista Trim Levels and Pricing

The 2026 Envista is offered in three trims. All three share the 1.2L turbocharged engine and front-wheel drive, so the choice between them comes down to wheels, materials, technology, and convenience features rather than performance.

Envista Preferred

The Preferred starts at $24,700 and covers the essentials well. It includes 17" bright silver-painted aluminum wheels, the Ultrawide 11" diagonal HD touchscreen paired with an 8" diagonal Driver Information Center, cloth-with-leatherette seating, LED headlamps, and the standard Buick Driver Confidence safety suite. Heated front seats and a power-adjustable driver's seat are available through the Convenience I Package. The Preferred uses the 1.2L Turbo engine with front-wheel drive, the same powertrain as every other trim. The power moonroof is not offered on this trim.

Envista Sport Touring

The Sport Touring starts at $26,200 and adds a more athletic look. It brings 18" Gloss Black-painted aluminum wheels, a Gloss Black mesh grille, Gloss Black mirror caps and lower fascias, ST head restraints, and a flat-bottom wrapped steering wheel. An available Studio Series package and an available power moonroof let you dress it up further, and heated front seats remain available through the Convenience I Package. Engine and drivetrain are unchanged: 1.2L Turbo, front-wheel drive.

Envista Avenir

The Avenir starts at $29,500 and is the most luxurious of the three. It comes standard with 19" aluminum wheels in a Pearl Nickel finish, perforated leather-appointed and heated front seats, a heated flat-bottom wrapped steering wheel, a Black Ice chrome grille, and a standard power liftgate. A power moonroof is available. Like the others, the Avenir runs the 1.2L Turbo engine and front-wheel drive.

MSRP excludes destination freight charge, tax, title, license, dealer fees, and optional equipment. Dealer sets final price.

Technology and Connectivity

Every Envista centers on the Ultrawide 11" diagonal HD color touchscreen, joined by a reconfigurable 8" diagonal Driver Information Center in front of the driver. Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto compatibility come standard, so most phones connect without a cable, and the system pairs with a six-speaker audio setup, SiriusXM, USB connectivity, and available Buick connected services. Remote start is supported through the key fob or the myBuick mobile app on properly equipped vehicles.

Interior and Comfort

The Envista seats five and leans on a wide, low dashboard design that keeps the controls within easy reach. Leatherette surfaces are standard, with perforated leather-appointed front seats on the Avenir. There is 41.9" of front legroom and 38.7" of rear legroom, enough for two adults in back on a drive to Hot Springs Village. Single-zone climate control and rear ventilation ducts are standard, heated front seats are standard on the Avenir and available on the other trims, and the cabin is tuned to stay quiet at highway speed.

Cargo and Passenger Space

For a vehicle this easy to park, the Envista carries a useful amount of gear. It offers 20.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats and up to 42.0 cubic feet with the 60/40 split rear seatback folded flat. The Avenir adds a standard power liftgate, and that feature is available on the other trims. At 182.6" long, 71.5" wide, and 61.2" tall on a 106.0" wheelbase, the Envista is sized for tight downtown parking yet roomy enough for kayaks and coolers headed to Lake Catherine.

Safety and Driver Assistance

Buick Driver Confidence comes standard on every 2026 Envista. The suite includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and IntelliBeam automatic high beams. A rear vision camera, rear park assist, and tire pressure monitoring are also standard. An available Advanced Safety Package adds further driver-assistance technology such as adaptive cruise control for highway driving.
