First, pull the lever under the driver's compartment, then go to the front center. With one hand pulling the hood upwards and the other hand reaching into the center gap, you will find a latch inside. Pull it firmly to the right to open the hood. Below is an introduction to the Buick Envision: 1. The fuel system technology and processes have been further refined to improve combustion efficiency. Additionally, the entire three-way catalytic converter assembly has been upgraded, significantly reducing particulate and gaseous pollutant emissions. 2. In addition to the upgraded emission standards, the 2019 Buick Envision has undergone a comprehensive revamp of the powertrain for the National VI-compliant 20T model. It is equipped with a newly calibrated 1.5T-SIDI direct-injection turbocharged engine and an upgraded 7-speed DCG dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 124kW (169PS)/5600rpm and a maximum torque of 250N·m/1700-4400rpm. The 28T model continues to feature the 2.0T-SIDI direct-injection turbocharged engine, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission, offering a maximum power of 191kW (260PS) and a maximum torque of 400N·m.
I've been driving my Buick Envision for several years, and opening the hood is a simple two-step process. First, while sitting in the driver's seat, locate the lever or trigger near your left foot by the door frame—it might have a hood symbol icon. Pull it firmly all the way until you hear a click, which means the hood is released. Second, quickly move to the front of the car. Right below the Buick emblem, there's a small hook or button. Reach in with your hand and gently lift or press upward—the hood will pop open automatically. Then, just secure it with the support rod. Don’t force it if it feels stuck; try spraying some rust remover if needed. I check the engine oil and coolant every month—rust can build up if the hood isn’t opened often. Maintaining your car starts with this!
