Does the Envision have projector headlights?
3 Answers
The Envision is equipped with projector headlights across all trims. The 28T model features xenon headlights, while the 20T model uses halogen headlights. The Buick Envision is positioned as a midsize SUV, with body dimensions of 4667mm in length, 1839mm in width, and 1694mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2750mm. In terms of exterior design, the Envision comes with a newly designed intelligent drag-reducing grille, aluminum roof rails, newly styled dual chrome exhaust tips, 19-inch multi-spoke aluminum alloy wheels, and multi-function exterior mirrors. For the interior, the Envision offers front-row multi-function seats, rear-row sliding seats with adjustable backrest angles, a large dual-opening center storage box, a heated steering wheel, a two-panel oversized panoramic sunroof, and an 8-inch HD touchscreen.
I've been driving the Envision for over two years now, and it indeed comes with projector headlights, a pretty common design feature that's been standard on most trims since the 2017 model year. The projector lenses help focus the beam, preventing light scatter, which makes nighttime driving brighter and safer—especially noticeable during rainy or foggy conditions. I've also noticed that projectors reduce glare for oncoming traffic, making highway driving more comfortable for myself. Just remember to keep them clean; accumulated dust can dim the output, but a simple wipe with a soft cloth does the trick. If you're looking at a base-model used unit, it's worth verifying if it has the original projectors, as entry-level versions might skip this feature. Overall, the Envision with projectors is hassle-free, providing even light distribution across the road.
From a practical perspective, the Envision's headlights generally feature a lens design. The lens acts like a small convex mirror, focusing the light to enhance illumination range. I've tried driving on rural roads at night, and the light is clear without scattering, making road signs easy to see. Most Buick models, including the Envision, come equipped with this feature, especially the LED versions which provide sharper lighting. The lens also has an anti-glare function, improving overall safety. A reminder to everyone: perform regular maintenance, as the lens surface is prone to dirt or scratches. If it gets dirty, use a specialized cleaner to treat it. Good headlights are crucial for safety, and driving at night with a lens-equipped headlight is much more reassuring.
