The Buick Avista concept received the EyesOn Design Award for Design Excellence - Concept Car at a ceremony at the North American International Auto Show.
It was the second consecutive year Buick received the award, which was bestowed on the Avenir concept in 2015. EyesOn Design - a benefit for Henry Ford Health System’s Detroit Institute of Ophthalmology - recognizes the best production and concept vehicle designs making their worldwide debut in Detroit.

A sleek, sweeping proportion is the foundation for this vision of a contemporary grand tourer, with a 400 hp twin-turbo V6 driving the rear wheels. The Avista’s uninterrupted body lines stretch front to rear, suggesting motion - resembling Buick’s design language introduced on the Avenir concept and carried into production on the 2017 LaCrosse.
Like the exterior, the Avista’s 2+2 interior is defined by flowing, uninterrupted lines conveying elegance through simplicity - with intense technical and surfaces details, in everything from 3D-printed door and seat trim to a future vision of Buick’s IntelliLink, with touchscreen controls on a widescreen instrument panel display.
Exposed carbon fiber and aluminum accents throughout reinforce the precision of the performance-oriented driving experience.
