Buick Regal News

It's happening!

PSA's purchase of the Opel/Vauxhall division from General Motors is expected to be officially announced on Monday.

Yeah man, that's a Buick.

GM also showed the 2018 Enclave and GMC Terrain to its Buick and GMC dealers.

Buick has filed a pair of new trademarks that could point to the arrival of a wagon variant of the next-gen Regal sedan in 2017.

The next Opel Insignia will draw its styling from 2013's Monza Concept Car, offering a sleeker, five-door form factor.

Buick is dramatically cutting prices for much of the 2016 Regal lineup to better compete in the segment. Buyers of this year's Regal GS will find the sticker over $3,000 less expensive than it was on 2015 models.

Buick has new base models of the Regal and Verano that can save buyers thousands over the next higher trim. In one case, though, customers have to accept a less powerful engine under the hood.

It wasn't the activity that had me cracking up, though. After all, winter driving experiences aren't uncommon in this business.

Buick may not be the first name that comes to mind when you think of performance automobiles, but fans of the brand know what letters to look for. If you believe the reports, there's a new GNX and Grand National on the way, but in the meantime, Buick may offer more GS models to fill the void.

A few months ago I drove the 2014 Buick LaCrosse and wrote up a First Drive review of it. For all of my quibbles with that sedan (and I had a fair number), I understand that it speaks to the heart of what new Buick loyalists like in a car; it's roomy, has a cushy ride and is as placid as a summer's morning at highway speeds.

Buick has announced pricing for the refreshed 2014 Regal. The base model offers a 2.0-liter, turbocharged, 259-horsepower, four-cylinder engine for $30,615 (*after $925 delivery and destination fee).
