Who woulda thought -- a Buick SUV? More accurately, the Rendezvous is one of a new breed of crossover vehicles that combines the look and utility of an SUV with the comfort of a touring car. The Rendezvous is based on the Pontiac Aztek, itself based on GM's minivan family consisting of the Chevrolet Venture, Pontiac Montana and Oldsmobile Silhouette.

Pros:
  • Available third-row seat that folds flush with the load floor, independent rear suspension, optional rear parking assist.
Cons:
  • Down on power compared to the competition, minimal off-road capability.

  • A Very Classy and Stylish Buick SUV - 2002 Buick Rendezvous
    By -

    Very nice SUV for Buicks first try in this market segment. Has nice looks and standsout from the crowd. Very pleasing interior with many nice touches. Fit and finish inside and out is good. Rides extreemly nice and is extreemly nimble for an AWD vehicle. Has great gas milage for its market segment. With a wife and two young daughters I needed the room and safty features this vehicle provides. Overall a classy alternative to a Minivan.

  • A Good Riding RDV - 2002 Buick Rendezvous

    This is a good performance SUV for first time buyer of SUVs. It has a good feel to it and can make women feel at ease about riding in a SUV. The entry into this SUV is low enough for women to climb in and out of it without feeling like we are climbing onto a horse. I just love my new Buick SUV.

    For anyone looking for a good family vehicle, the RDV desreves serious consideration. The only criticisms Ive heard about the vehicle pertain to mileage or power. Well, it is a 3400# SUV, and Im pretty sure that if youre looking for power in a car that size, the MPG will stink, and vice versa. The power has been perfectly adequate (for LA hwys), and our overall MPG is around 22 after 3000 mi. In short, a very nice balance between power and econony. That said, the comfort, quiet, convenience and luxury cant be beaten in this price range. We paid less than $24k, and everyone in the family is thrilled with the convenience and creature comfort so far.

  • Why hasnt Buick Enhanced and continued? - 2002 Buick Rendezvous
    By -

    All around good vehicle - reliability, comfort, great little amenities, great fuel mileage for type and size of vehicle. Dont understand why Buick did not continue and enhance this vehicle.

  • Wonderful Car - 2002 Buick Rendezvous
    By -

    I bought my CXL new in 2002 and have put over 100,000 miles on it during the past 5 years. The comfort level is great, even for back-seat passengers. I love the parking aid, the leather seats, and the driver-information center. This car has been extremely reliable. Gas mileage depends on who drives it. I get about 20-21 mpg. My husband gets 18-19. This is on the hills and curvy roads near our home.

    I bought this vehicle in 2001 and have enjoyed driving it. I use it for hauling gardening stuff, crafting stuff and grandchildren and friends. Really like my vehicle.

    This vehicile has everything. Best stereo in any car I have had including Cadillacs. Head up display, 3rd seat, leather throughout, OnStar, heated mirrors, 4 driver memory, backup protection and all of the other extras that Buick offered that year and not on some later models. It is a little underpowered, the 4 wheel drive is more for show, high crosswinds at 80 MPH are scary and electronic components are expensive to replace, but overall this has been one our favorite cars along with the Mercedes convertible and the Arizona Edition Cadillac we now own!
