2020 Acura RDX vs 2020 Buick Envision near Waukesha, WI

2020 Acura RDX with A-Spec® Package shown above in Platinum White Pearl.
The Acura RDX has consistently blended athleticism, luxury, and capability with each iteration, and the latest model is no exception. If you are already weighing your options, then we at Acura of Brookfield are here to lay your concerns to rest when you check out this overview between the RDX and the 2020 Buick Envision. We think that the performance specs alone will have you racing to our location to get started on a contract!
Exterior
Let’s begin by reveling in the details on the outer shell of the 2020 RDX. This model comes standard with a panoramic moonroof that will allow you to take your Sunday cruises up a notch with a gust of fresh air. When you opt for the Envision, you will have to spend some more money to experience this type of upgrade. And, the RDX boasts available 20 x 8.0-inch Shark Gray split 5-spoke wheels that will have you gliding over the pavement in style with a high vantage point. The Envision will have you looking up at fellow drivers, because you will only have 19-inch aluminum options as an available upgrade. Lastly, the standard Jewel Eye® LED headlights on the RDX will light up the nighttime sky with authority, while the standard projector-beam headlamps on the vehicle from Buick leave a lot to be desired.
Performance
Now that you know the 2020 RDX outshines the 2020 Envision in terms of looks, let’s look beneath the hoods of each vehicle to address the power that emanates. The vehicle from Acura offers a standard 2.0L Turbo Aluminum-Alloy 4-cylinder powertrain that growls to the tune of 272 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque to send you down the interstate with plenty of force at your beck and call. Unfortunately, when you choose the Buick driving option, you will have to settle for a standard 2.5L 4-cylinder system that provides an insufficient 197 horsepower and 192 lb.-ft. of torque. This machine comes paired with a standard 6-speed automatic transmission that doesn’t deliver quite as much as the RDX in terms of athleticism. That is because the Acura boasts a standard 10-speed automatic transmission with sequential SportShift paddle shifters!
Interior
When you hop into the cabin of the Acura RDX, you will feel right at home. That is because it boasts available perforated Milano premium leather-trimmed seats to help you and your passengers achieve ultimate comfort in the lap of luxury. When you choose the Envision, you will not find this material, which might leave you feeling a bit lackluster in terms of relaxation. The RDX will also mitigate lower back pain, because it offers standard 12-way power front seats with power lumbar support to keep you and your co-pilot cozy. The vehicle from Buick misses the mark again, because you and your front-seat passenger will only have 8-way power adjustments. Lastly, the Acura RDX offers dual-zone automatic climate control on each trim level, while only some options of the Envision boast this feature.
The results are in, and between the 2020 Acura RDX vs 2020 Buick Envision near Waukesha, WI, the former wins! You can get up close and personal today at Acura of Brookfield.

Both times I was treated with attention and respect - it was a great buying experience and pricing was competitive.

“ Brian Hoppe was our salesperson and he was great. He made the purchase smooth from testing the car to purchasing it. Communicating prior to test drive was easy. I sent a message and they reached out and were able to set up an appointment on the same day. No spam calls, just text for communication as we preferred. Upon arrival, Brian was very thoughtful and had warmed up the car for us to test drive. We were able to immediately hop in and test drive without having to worry about warming up the engine or having a hovering salesperson in the backseat. He was not pushy at all, and he didn't have to be. The cars here speak for themselves. You could tell the car was well taken care of and maintained to Acura of Brookfield's high standards. We were able to test drive for a while before confirming the purchase. Although it was past working hours, Brian stayed late to set us up for financing. He took care of us and made sure we had drinks and snacks. The price was reasonable and on top of that Brian set us up with even better financing rates than we had initially hoped for. It was a easy yes. We were able to wrap up signing papers and pick it up the next day which took not even an hour. The car was newly washed, tank full, car warmed up, and parked in front for our convenience. It also had Acura merch plus a little gift. Fun! It made the experience great and throughly seamless. Note, we had been searching for a car for over two months dealing with shady dealerships and salespersons who were pushy and deceptive. This dealership and it's employees were nothing like that. They are honest and fair and hold themselves to high standards when it comes to the quality of their cars. I highly recommend this dealership and Brian Hoppe. ”
