Can the Envision Carpet Assembly Be Replaced?
2 Answers
The Envision carpet assembly can be replaced. Below is a relevant introduction to the Envision: 1. Powertrain: The 2020 Buick Envision offers two engine options: a 2.0T SIDI direct-injection turbocharged engine paired with a 9-speed HYDRA-MATIC intelligent transmission, and a 1.5T SIDI direct-injection turbocharged engine paired with a 7-speed DCG-PLUS intelligent dual-clutch transmission. The former delivers a maximum power of 191 kW at 5500 rpm and a peak torque of 400 N·m between 3000-4000 rpm, achieving 0-100 km/h acceleration in 8.2 seconds and a combined fuel consumption of 8.8 L/100 km. The latter produces a maximum power of 124 kW at 5600 rpm and a peak torque of 250 N·m between 1700-4400 rpm, with 0-100 km/h acceleration in 10.3 seconds and a combined fuel consumption of 6.6 L/100 km. All models comply with the stringent China 6b emission standards. 2. Chassis: The 2020 Envision continues to feature the rare-in-class CDC full-time active hydraulic damping system and offers two four-wheel-drive systems: Intelligent AWD and Intelligent All-Terrain AWD, along with the FlexRide four-mode adaptive driving system.
Yes, it can be replaced. My Envision had its entire carpet assembly replaced two years ago. At the time, a spilled drink wasn't cleaned up promptly, causing the carpet to mold and emit a foul odor. The mechanic recommended a full replacement. The removal and installation process was quite time-consuming—all the seats had to be taken out, and even the side panels of the center console had to be disassembled. After the replacement, I noticed the sound insulation was actually better than the factory original, thanks to the new carpet's thickened noise-reducing layer. However, if the carpet is only partially dirty, you can actually remove it, pressure-wash it, and let it dry, saving the two to three thousand yuan for a full replacement. If you're doing it yourself, I recommend checking a disassembly tutorial first—the clip locations are crucial.
