Chinese Buick Regal delayed
Last Updated:
Not know why yet.
But some big GM suits were at the Chinese factory a few weeks ago, and now the car will be 2 months late. It will come out in December instead of this month.
Also, it seems GM won’t be offering a V6 in this Chinese version of the Insignia. Instead, relying on a few 4 cylinders, all with Turbos.
Like a 1.6 Liter Turbo with 180hp. And a 2.0 Liter Turbo with 220hp.
How about these in the US?
The V6 market is a little slow at the moment so 4 cylinders arnt a silly idea for the long term. As long as it doesnt underpower the car.
That’s one nice looking Buick.
It is here already, it is called the lincoln mks!
lead in the paint 🙂
This car doesn’t look anything like the Lincoln MKS. It is much smaller and has a “4-door coupe” profile that doesn’t remotely resemble the Lincoln MKS. The upcoming LWB Epsilon II based LaCrosse has a similar roofline to the MKS, but that’s where the similarities end.
I think this car would make a nice sub-LaCrosse entry sedan for Buick if GM makes the decision to bring it to the U.S.
Well they need to make a decision quick. They are just all talk and no, or very slow action and look where it got them.
It looks like a mildly freshened Mercury Milan. Snoozer. Let’s hope Buick can do a little better than this in the States, or Chrysler won’t be the only one going under.
