Does the 2026 Buick Envista Have AWD?

No. The 2026 Buick Envista is front-wheel drive only. Buick does not offer an all-wheel-drive version of the Envista.

This is true for all three Envista trims:

Preferred
Sport Touring
Avenir

Each 2026 Envista uses a 1.2-liter turbo engine with a 6-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. Buick rates the engine at 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque.

Why Does the Envista Only Have Front-Wheel Drive?

Front-wheel drive keeps the Envista simple and helps it deliver strong fuel economy.

The 2026 Envista is rated at an estimated:

28 MPG city
32 MPG highway

Those ratings apply to the front-wheel-drive Envista.

For many shoppers who mostly drive around St. Louis, commute to work, run errands, or spend most of their time on paved roads, front-wheel drive may provide what they need.

Drivers who specifically want all-wheel drive may want to look at another Buick model.

Which Buick Offers AWD?

The Buick Envision comes with all-wheel drive and offers more cargo room than the Envista. It can be a good next step for shoppers who like the Envista but want a larger vehicle with AWD.
