Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Buick Envista than in the Volvo XC40. The Buick Envista will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Volvo XC40.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Buick Envista as you will with the Volvo XC40, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Buick Envista is a better financial choice over the Volvo XC40, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Buick Envista is much slimmer than the Volvo XC40, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Buick Envista, which is slightly longer than the Volvo XC40.

Handling
The Buick Envista has a larger turning radius than the Volvo XC40, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Buick Envista has a lot less horsepower than the Volvo XC40.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Buick Envista does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Volvo XC40.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Buick Envista and the Volvo XC40. The Buick Envista has significantly less cargo capacity than the Volvo XC40.
