National Geographic Channel stickers are so cool. Many Chinese car buyers stick such on their car, they think it shows they are adventurous. The stickers go for a few yuan at car markets and gas stations. It appears however that GM has made a real deal with the magazine, which is kinda stupid, because nobody will know the difference.

The Envision is manufactured in China by the Shanghai-GM joint venture, it based on GM’s Delta global-compact platform. The Buick Envision will be positioned above the China-made Buick Encore SUV and below the Buick Enclave SUV that is currently imported into China.

Buick has a gold car on stage. White is better.

At launch there will be only one engine available:a 2.0 turbo with 260hp and 363nm. It will soon be joined by a low-output variant of the 2.0 turbo with 200hp and 280nm. The 2.0 turbo is mated to a six-speed automatic.

But that is not all. GM is apparently also working on a 1.5 turbo with about 170hp and on a hybrid variant based around this 1.5 turbo. It is yet unknown when these variants will hit the market.

Size: 4667/1839/1663mm, wheelbase is 2750.
