Podcasts about Buick Envision

Can a late pivot to EREV save Mopar and inject missing soul? Disposable cars and flawed parts are frustrating the process of repairing. Chinese cars like Buick Envision, Lincoln Nautilus and Polestar are sneakily creeping into the US market. Driving an EREV 100 miles with no motor oil is fine? Aftermarket adapters are not safe.

Shoot us a Text.Welcome to Tuesday! Paul's hanging out at Vincue Unleashed, Kyle's at his desk and we've got news to talk about, like how the US's new rule on Chinese software in cars could affect OEMs, how Stellantis is going about its CEO search, and how Google is making Gemini a part of all Workspace accounts.Show Notes with links:The U.S. Commerce Department is considering a new rule that could block automakers like General Motors and Ford from importing vehicles made in China. The move is part of a broader effort to curb the use of Chinese technology, particularly software and hardware, due to national security concerns.GM's Buick Envision and Ford's Lincoln Nautilus, both assembled in China, would be directly impacted and the rule could also affect other automakers, including Volvo and BYD.GM sold about 22,000 Envisions, and Ford sold 17,500 Nautilus crossovers in the U.S. during the first half of 2024.Automakers would need to move production outside of China or apply for specific authorizations to continue selling affected models.Liz Cannon from the Commerce Department said, "Any vehicle manufactured in China and sold in the U.S. would fall within the prohibitions."Stellantis announced it has begun the search for a successor to CEO Carlos Tavares, with his contract expiring in January 2026. While Tavares has led the company since 2021 and made it highly profitable, recent issues in North America are driving the company to refocus.The CEO search is routine, but the company faces pressure due to declining North American sales and profits.In response, Stellantis is slashing vehicle inventories by 100,000 units by early 2025 and has already reduced 40,000 vehicles.CFO Natalie Knight said inventory and pricing discipline are key strategies to weather the EV transition, with some models, like the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Compass, seeing price cuts.Tavares has implemented aggressive cost-cutting measures, including job cuts and a plan to source 80% of parts from low-cost countries by 2028.“We are living in very difficult times where there are going to be winners and losers, and a lot about being the winner is being the last man standing," Knight saidGoogle is making its Gemini AI a central part of its Workspace productivity suite, a move that could significantly boost the chatbot's user base across various industries.Gemini AI will now be included in Workspace Business, Enterprise, and Frontline plans starting in Q4, eliminating the need for a separate Gemini add-on, streamlining AI use for Workspace customers.Google assures that Gemini won't use organizational data to train its AI model and complies with enterprise-grade privacy standards like SOC 1/2/3 and ISO 27701.Workspace Administrators will manage data storage for generated responses and user prompts, adding control and security.Google is also introducing the "Security Advisor" tool to help IT administrators protect againstHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

For the last twenty years, the American automotive industry has been waiting with  baited breath for the arrival of the Chinese automakers.  While names like BYD, Great Wall and Chery Motors are not household names in America just yet, it might surprise you that Americans have purchased some $300 Million of Chinese-built vehicles during the past year.  While some are still looking for their "official" arrival, the truth is that Chinese built vehicles are already offered for sale in the American auto marketplace. If you are a victim of human trafficking or suspect that someone is, there is help. 1-888-373-7888 is the number of the National Human Trafficking Hotline. You can also text HELP or INFO to 233733. Over 200 languages are spoken and the help is available 24-hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

Buick, Oldsmobile and Pontiac were the stars of the long-forgotten “medium-priced” car. While the times have certainly changed, and two of those General Motors brands have gone by the wayside, Buick is still sticking with its near-luxury roots with the latest Buick Envision. Buick's Envision started life as a wild concept back in 2011, but went into production for the 2014 model in China. Envision made its way to the United States in 2016, which was replaced by the second-generation model for 2021. This second-generation Envision stuffs a 2.0-liter turbocharged I4 under the hood that sends 228 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque through a nine-speed automatic transmission. On this episode of Quick Spin, Patrick Carone hops behind the wheel of a 2022 Buick Envision Avenir and puts it through its paces. Carone takes you on a guided tour of the Envision Avenir before taking you along for a live recorded drive review. Adding to the show, Carone chats with host Wesley Wren about the '22 Buick Avenir, its position in the market and Buick's position in the United States. Closing the show, the two break down what makes this car special.

In the true spirit of internationalism, Co-Host Chris Teague takes a look at the China-built 2021 Buick Envision, yet another compact SUV. Almost invisibly, Buick has transformed itself from a brand that offered big, comfortable sedans to a brand that concentrates almost exclusively on crossovers. Has it been successful in making the transition? Chris Teague will let us know. They say there's no business like show business. So what did the pandemic do to the auto industry's massive trade exposition, the SEMA Show? Host Jack Nerad will get to the bottom that as he interviews Tom Gattuso, vice president of events for the Specialty Equipment Market Association. The epidemic had some very surprising effects on many SEMA companies that sell auto parts and accessory items. A recent J.D. Power study on brand loyalty leads off the news segment. According to the world-renowned research firm, the COVID-19 had a profound effect on what vehicles American consumers bought and which ones they didn't. We'll have that analysis for you. The 2021 Buick Envision is a truly international vehicle with a surprising background.

After a comprehensive redesign, Buick's midsize SUV goes from frumpy to fantastic.

After a comprehensive redesign, Buick's midsize SUV goes from frumpy to fantastic.

Buick's Envision is a pretty forgettable car to me. Its design is awkward, no one really talks about it (not that anyone really talk about Buick as a whole), and –if I'm not mistaken– it has gone a little while now without any significant changes or upgrades. Well, a new Envision is coming, and (from a design standpoint at least) it's already a vast departure from the last one.   Check out my YouTube Channel here: https://youtube.com/codyscarconundrum Purchase my Car Tshirt merch at:   https://tinyurl.com/y8tjl3jw Stay up to date by visiting my website: http://www.codyscarconundrum.com/

We've got some tips for getting the most miles per gallon of gas.Useful Tips to Improve Your Gas Mileage1. Take it easy on the pedal. ... the faster you go the greater the drag that your car will have to work against. The same is true when coming to a stop. Imagine there is an egg between your foot and the gas pedal to remind yourself to accelerate slowly and gently. When breaking allow time to just slow by not having your foot on the gas peddle. 2. Adhere to your vehicle's recommended fuel type. ... if you’re suppose to put regular fuel in the car do it. If you’re suppose to put premium fuel in – do that. 3. Watch the weight. ... unless you’re driving a cargo van, don’t carry cargo regularly, for no reason. 4. Reduce drag. ... roof racks, bike racks, and storage accessories on your car add weight and increase aerodynamic drag. They aren’t for everyday use. 5. Inflate those tires to the correct pressure. ... flatter tires have more contact with the road and take more fuel to propel. Also watch the tread pattern of the tires. 6. Avoid prolonged idling. Your engine consumes half a gallon to a gallon of fuel every hour. Don’t rev your engine while starting in the morning. Let it run for 20 seconds and you’re good to go. 7. Drive in the highest possible gear but without putting undue stress on your engine. . . for a manual. Automatics – keep it on overdrive8. Forget aftermarket solutions . . performance enhancing gizmo or technology make promises but don’t deliver or the effect is negligible.9. Utilize online resources to find the best deals on gas. Something like Gas Buddy or AAA, Kroger fuel discounts, Wal-Mart giftcard discounts10. Refuel in the morning, not towards the end of the day . . . you can save a dollar of two because the gas is cooler and denser. When it expands, less gas makes up the same volume11. Do not ever forget to replacing your air filter 12. Be sensible when using the air conditioning – is city traffic better to roll down the windows13. Keep your car tuned up14. Every year use something like CRC Intake Cleaner GDI – throttle body cleanerAnd here’s what’s in the news this week: Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee Returns to Netflix July 19 Jerry Seinfeld’s Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, the show in which he picks up a comedian and takes them to coffee in a sometimes perfect/sometimes combustible car, usually framed around his interpretation of their personality, will return with new episodes to its relatively new home at Netflix next month.Consumer Reports has a list of 108 2007-16 models that have a record of much-worse-than-average overall reliability based on subscriber responses to their Annual Auto Survey.

Is it smart to sell a version of your halo car that subtracts the one factor that your brand is known for above all else? Sami pilots the rear-wheel drive 2018 Audi R8 RWS in Spain and comes back to tell Benjamin what he thinks about Audi's gambit. Benjamin, meanwhile, spends time behind the wheel of the completely redesigned 2018 Buick Regal GS and discovers that it's a lot better than anyone would expect. He also drives the 2019 Buick Envision, the 'oldest' new car in the Buick fleet. Finally, Hyundai decides that everyone's car stereos should be linked together, and then patents that idea.

Along with the usual tomfoolery, we're talking about the Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid, the Subaru Impreza, the Volvo S90 Inscription, Buick Envision, and for the first time, the Ford F-150 with the new TEN-SPEED TRANSMISSION. That's right, it has ten gears and Jerry has some pretty strong opinions on it. We also touch on the New York Auto Show debuts coming up next week, including the new Honda Civic Si, which we forecast will be very, very good. Lastly, we're finally taking our old cars out for the spring, because apparently, it's finally getting warmer out!

Sam walked a metric ton of miles around CES and then again at NAIAS, and we talk about what he saw and heard. We talk about the presentation by Ford’s Mark Fields at CES, Detroit Auto Show highlights, and we answer some of your questions, too.

This week Sami and Benjamin discuss their recent trip to the Rocky Mountains in Alberta to drive the 2017 Buick Envision, talk about whether it's actually important where a car is physically built, and mention their grisly Alberta discovery. Stay for further talk of the Hyundai Sonata PHEV and the Audi SmartHOBOS bee strategy, which is perhaps the best acronym ever.
