Buick Avenir

It comes with many features and distinct trim.

This may not be the Avenir you were waiting for, but it's probably the Avenir that consumers will buy.

Apparently Buick thought the name was the only marketable part of the Avenir concept.

With a healthy dose of styling from the Avenir concept car, Buick has introduced a shapelier, more stylish, and most importantly, more advanced LaCrosse.

For an episode of Jay Leno's Garage that's nearly an hour long, Jay takes a tour of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. He interviews some top automotive designers in the industry on the Concept Car Lawn.

The 2017 Buick LaCrosse is bringing the nose of the Avenir concept to production. The new sedan debuts at the 2015 Los Angeles Show with a lighter platform underneath the updated styling.

The idea of a big, rear-drive Buick sedan could be revived if GM decides to hand the Cadillac CT6's Omega platform to the near-luxury brand.

We sit down with General Motors executive vice president Mark Reuss to get the lowdown on all things product. He's optimistic about the 2016 Chevy Malibu and Cadillac CT6, and he thinks the ATS-V will "flame the M3 and M4." And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

By going after niches in the market that competitors aren't, Buick is forging its own path and finding success. A product like the Encore shows that there's value in taking a gamble on a segment early, and the brand is trying that again with the Cascada.

The Ford GT was absolutely the start of the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, and it has proved that once again by taking the honor for Best Designed Production Vehicle in the annual EyesOn Design Awards. The Buick Avenir and Audi Q7 also received accolades.

Buick stunned the crowds at the Detroit Auto Show with its gorgeous Avenir Concept, a sleek four-door that previews the brand's future design direction.

The doors at Cobo Hall haven't even opened yet, and already the Detroit Auto Show is yielding surprises – in this case, the Buick Avenir sedan concept, revealed at an off-site event this evening.
