How to Use the Navigation System in the Envision?

Navigation usage guide for the Envision: Power on, select navigation, enter the map, search, input the desired location name, set the destination, and start navigation. The Envision is a midsize SUV with body dimensions of 4686mm in length, 1839mm in width, and 1691mm in height. It offers a choice between a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.5-liter version of the Envision is equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission across all variants, while the 2.0-liter version comes with a 9-speed automatic transmission. In terms of exterior design, the Envision presents a more robust and imposing appearance. The new wing-shaped chrome trim runs through the LED wing-shaped headlights, enhancing the horizontal visual effect. The dynamic front bumper design and three-dimensional silver lower guard create a full and powerful front fascia.

I've been driving the Enclave for three years, and using the navigation is quite straightforward. After starting the car, simply tap the navigation icon on the central control screen or press the voice button on the steering wheel and say 'Hello Buick, I want to go to [destination].' The system will pop up a search box where you can input an address or select a saved location. Once confirmed, it automatically plans the route. The map updates in real-time while driving, and the traffic display is quite accurate. Don't forget to connect to your phone's hotspot to update the map packages; I upgrade mine every six months, otherwise, new roads won't be found. Save a few frequently used addresses when parked; it makes navigation much faster next time.

I find the Envision's navigation system quite flexible, especially the customizable settings. Access the navigation feature through the center console menu, first set your preferences: avoid highways or take the shortest distance, and switch the map to night mode for eye comfort. When entering an address, you can use initial letters for quick searches, such as 'BJC' for Beijing Capital Airport. With the car's 4G connection, real-time traffic conditions are displayed with red, yellow, and green indicators for congestion, and it automatically suggests detour routes. I often save home and work address groups for one-tap navigation to save time. Remember to regularly connect to WiFi for map updates, as Buick's eConnect system pushes new data every quarter.

Voice-controlled navigation is the most effortless. While driving, I press the talk button on the steering wheel and say 'Hello Buick', then directly state the destination like 'Navigate to Wanda Plaza'. The system automatically searches and plans the route. If I want to change the route midway, I just say 'Avoid congestion' or 'Zoom in the map' without touching the screen. At complex intersections, it automatically displays real-life guidance, which is quite thoughtful. Once accustomed, the whole process can be done by voice, making it safe and convenient. The map data comes with basic updates.
