Buick has launched its latest, most-affordable automobile. The 2024 Buick Envista slots under the Encore GX, begins under $25,000 and is a snug and quiet factor. It seems to be fairly good, too, I feel. You’ll be able to learn all about it in my first drive evaluate, and in case you have, you have in all probability been questioning, “Properly, what concerning the cupholders? Will my goofily massive water bottle match?”
Regardless of water being supplied on the drive, as you possibly can see from the disposable bottles within the background of those images, I went by way of a liter of weight loss plan cola from my Nalgene water bottle on the cross-town trek to the occasion, so it got here alongside for the drive with me.
Up entrance, we have got a pair of cupholders in a fore/aft orientation. They give the impression of being pretty typical in each manner, together with dimension, which does not bode nicely for the ‘gene. I may really feel the uninteresting disappointment as I lowered the bottle towards the cupholder.
Certainly, it would not match.
At first look, the entrance door pocket seems to be prefer it may work. That little divider is worrisome, although.
Adshearlikins! So shut. As you possibly can see within the video additional under, after staunchly rejecting the Nalgene, a second try exhibits it’s going to slip in just a bit bit, however not sufficient to correctly maintain the factor. The entrance occupants, it seems, are out of choices.
However what concerning the folks within the again? There are not any cupholders on the again of the middle console, neither is there a middle armrest to fold down from the seat. Straight to the door pocket it’s.
The rear door pocket seems to be like a shortened model of those up entrance. Inauspicious, however we nonetheless should cross our fingers and verify it.
No surprises right here. Simply extra disappointment.
So whereas the rear passengers can get pleasure from a wholesome quantity of legroom, they can not get pleasure from a more-than-healthy quantity of water from their Nalgene until they maintain it or let it roll round on the ground.
I nonetheless favored the Envista, although. It is value a glance in order for you a price range automobile that does not really feel low cost.
