Gearbox & Engine Skid Plate for Buick Envision (2014-2020) I generation incl. Facelift | Kolchuga®
Protect your Buick Envision (2014-2020) I generation with the Kolchuga® skid plate, expertly crafted from 2 mm thick steel. This durable protection acts as a formidable shield for your engine and gearbox, safeguarding these vital components from potential impacts and damage. With its robust construction, this skid plate is designed to withstand the rigors of everyday driving, ensuring your vehicle remains protected on any terrain.
The main Kolchuga® protection panel is made from high-quality steel with a thickness of 2 mm. Steel protection is available with two coating options, providing different levels of corrosion protection.
| Coating | Protection Technology | Purpose and Benefits | Corrosion Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|
| WhiteCover® | Hot-dip galvanizing (compliant with EN ISO 1461). | Reliable and long-lasting coating. Ideal for vehicles with very intensive use (e.g., commercial vehicles). | Up to 24 months |
| ZiPoFlex® | Premium combination: Hot-dip galvanizing + Polymer painting + Polymer lacquer. | The ultimate solution for any, even the most demanding operating conditions (corrosivity category C5). | Up to 36 months |
This skid plate specifically covers the gearbox and engine areas, providing comprehensive protection against road hazards. Its design includes reinforcing ribs for added strength, and strategically placed ventilation openings that facilitate airflow, helping to maintain optimal temperatures for the engine and transmission. Additionally, service access openings allow for easy maintenance without removing the protection.
Kolchuga® protection effectively shields your vehicle from impacts caused by rocks, ice, curbs, and speed bumps. This robust protection not only prevents mechanical damage but also contributes to reducing corrosion and improving aerodynamics. The installation process is straightforward, as the skid plate mounts directly to the factory points without the need for drilling or modifications.
How does Kolchuga® protection differ from the factory one? The factory (stock) protection is typically a plastic dust cover (splash guard) or thin composite material. Its main function is protection from dirt and dust. In contrast, Kolchuga® protection is a durable metal plate (steel or aluminum) that serves as a mechanical shield. It provides reliable protection from impacts against rocks, branches, or open manholes. The key difference: Factory protection guards against dirt, while Kolchuga® guards against impact.
