2018 Buick Envision vs. 2018 Toyota RAV4
Crossover SUVs like the new Buick Envision are popular because models like these are often well-equipped across its trim ladder and offer owners more than enough flexibility in terms of available interior space. Because the crossover SUV segment is so tightly packed and competitive, it helps to do some comparison shopping. Take a look at the 2018 Buick Envision vs. 2018 Toyota RAV4. Certainly, the new Envision has a long way to go match the well-earned reputation of the RAV4, but Buick has done some very impressive things with its midsize crossover.

Having the ability to remain in contact with the outside world is more important to car buyers than ever before. Providing drivers and passenger with the latest connectivity options has become one of the things Buick is best known for. Unlike the 2018 Toyota RAV4, every trim grade of the new Buick Envision can be outfitted with the automaker's high-speed 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot that can support several devices at the same time. Toyota has only recently introduced a Wi-Fi hotspot in some of its vehicles, which doesn't currently include the 2018 RAV4. Finally, the infotainment system in the 2018 Buick Envision is compatible with both Android- and Apple-based smartphones. The Toyota version of its infotainment system does not offer this functionality.

Performance specifications
One of the most glaring differences between the 2018 Buick Enclave and the 2018 Toyota RAV4 shows up when comparing the performance specifications between the two vehicles. Both crossover SUVs start out a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine under the hood and each vehicle uses a six-speed automatic transmission on all trims. However, the new Buick Envision can make nearly 200 horsepower whereas the 2018 RAV4 tops out a fewer than 180 horsepower. Billion Auto Group customers looking for a little more power can choose either the Premium or Premium II trims with a turbocharged, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine making more than 250 horsepower.
