2005 Buick Rendezvous Unknown

This '04 Rendezvous is a well-rounded family vehicle with plenty of space for passengers and cargo. The Rendezvous is a perfect example of the new category of crossover vehicles. The Rendezvous combines aspects of SUVs, minivans, and wagons. This Rendezvous has some of the best headroom in its class, and owners like this and how it makes entry and exit easy. The leather seats provide ample comfort, and the dashboard controls are simple and easy to read. The flexibility of the seating configurations is an exercise in automotive origami. The seats fold and tuck and fit into an amazing number of arrangements. Even the second-row seat flips and folds, allowing you to have two people up front and a flat floor behind. Even with seven inches of ground clearance and all-wheel drive, getting in and out of the Rendezvous is more like getting in and out of a sedan than an SUV. Small children, arthritic knees and tight-skirts can be grateful for that. The Buick Rendezvous rides more smoothly and offers more responsive handling than an SUV. Its long wheelbase smooths surface irregularities without the road vibration inherent in many SUVs. Its all-wheel-drive system, called Versatrak, requires no input from the driver. Versatrak drives just the front wheels until sensors agree that some traction assistance from the rear is advisable. Versatrak is clever: Power is meted out separately and individually to each rear wheel, not just to the rear axle. That is a fineness of traction disbursement not available in most other four-wheel-drive systems. The result is better traction and increased stability.You can expect to get 18/24mpg city-hwy. Buick Rendezvous is as comfortable as it is practical. It offers a smooth ride, reassuring road manners, and a pleasant cabin. This Buick Rendezvous is priced well and easy to like, with solid engineering, useful flexibility, and a handsome appearance.
