Does the Envision use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?
2 Answers
The Envision can use both types of gasoline. Models equipped with the 1.5L turbocharged engine use 92 octane gasoline, while those with the 2.0L turbocharged engine use 95 octane gasoline. The main difference between gasoline grades lies in their octane ratings, with virtually no other distinctions. The recommended gasoline grade is clearly indicated on the fuel filler cap or in the owner's manual - simply follow these recommendations. The Envision measures 4,686mm in length, 1,839mm in width, and 1,686mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,750mm. It features a rare-in-class CDC continuous damping control system and offers two intelligent four-wheel-drive systems (Intelligent AWD and Intelligent All-Terrain AWD) along with the FlexRide four-mode adaptive driving system.
I've been driving a Buick Envision for several years and have always used 92-octane gasoline without any issues. The fuel cap or owner's manual clearly recommends 92-octane as the minimum standard. While 95-octane is usable, it's more expensive and unnecessary to waste money on it. The gasoline octane rating represents the fuel's anti-knock index - higher grades like 95-octane have better anti-knock properties, but the Envision's engine is designed to run perfectly on 92-octane. During daily driving, the power delivery feels smooth and fuel consumption remains stable. Occasionally using 95-octane won't harm the engine, though it's more costly. I'd recommend regularly checking the manual or consulting the 4S dealership for confirmation. More importantly, fuel quality and gas station selection matter most - choosing reputable stations ensures purity and cleanliness, extending engine life. Saving on fuel costs is every car owner's concern, and developing this habit brings peace of mind and convenience.
