General Motors on Monday said that it will discontinue the Chevrolet Volt, Cruze, and Impala early next year and shutter three assembly plants in the U.S. and Canada as it reduces its workforce and feeds demand for crossover SUVs and pickups rather than sedans. GM said that the assembly plants it...

The Buick LaCrosse will soon come in for a facelift as evidenced by a camouflaged prototype spotted testing recently. The LaCrosse was last redesigned for 2017 so this facelift represents a mid-cycle update for the large sedan. Expect it to arrive in the second half of 2019 as a 2020 model. The...

The LaCrosse is the second model in the United States to receive Buick’s upmarket Avenir treatment. In case you’ve forgotten, Avenir, French for “future,” is the name of a luxurious sedan concept Buick rolled out in 2015. The concept didn’t make it to production but...

The 2017 Buick LaCrosse made waves with its attractive design and impressive build quality at its unveiling at the 2015 Los Angeles auto show. For 2018, the large sedan gets a new standard powertrain which happens to be a mild-hybrid system, referred to as eAssist by General Motors. Like the...

Buick's new LaCrosse may not be a BMW-rivaling sports sedan, but it boasts remarkably lithe and polished manners on a curvy road. That's partly due to its all-new structure, which checks in about 300 pounds lighter than last year's admittedly porky model, and also to its upgraded five-link rear...

Buick’s lineup has been starved of fresh product for the past couple of years—there hasn’t been an all-new model since the Encore arrived in 2012—but starting next year we’ll finally see some new arrivals. One of these is the 2016 Cascada convertible, which Buick has...

Buick has given us more glimpses of its all-new LaCrosse large sedan which will be introduced to the market next year, as a 2017 model. The car makes its debut on Wednesday at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show and is said to feature a design similar to the one on the Avenir concept car unveiled at the...

A redesigned Buick LaCrosse isn’t due out until next year but an undisguised version has already been spotted. The photo, and others like it posted to Chinese website Autohome (via AutoEvolution), reveals an evolutionary look for the new large sedan, albeit with influences from the latest...

If I told you that Buick was going to add Sport Touring versions of its Regal, Verano, and LaCrosse models, what would you guess that meant? Personally, I'd be excited that Buick was adding in wagon versions of its existing sedans. It's the "Touring" bit that has me thinking, hoping, praying, that...

The second generation of the full-size Buick LaCrosse sedan dates back to the 2010 model year, and sales have remained relatively consistent for Buick in the United States market. The LaCrosse is also a hot commodity in China, so General Motors is hesitant to fix something that isn’t broken...

General Motors has told its dealers that it is planning to introduce nine new or significantly updated Buick and GMC models over the next 12 months, starting with the recently updated 2013 Buick Enclave and 2013 GMC Acadia this fall. This will be followed by the new 2013 Buick Encore compact...

Former NBA star Shaquille O'Neal praises the 2012 Buick LaCrosse for its room, comfort and "oh effect."

Buick isn't bringing a flashy concept to the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show next week. No, it's bringing a LaCrosse design study called the LaCrosse GL, which could easily be put into production. The concept features a combination of cabernet red paint, dark cocoa brown and caramel-colored leathers...

The 2003 Opel Insignia Concept, which eventually went on to spawn a sedan and wagon, is possibly the best example of a station wagon with crossover elements that Opel is considering for its new flagship.

GM continues to push its revised LFX V-6 engine throughout its brand portfolio. The latest addition is the 2012 Buick LaCrosse, which gains 23 horsepower while maintaining the same fuel economy as last year's model.

We’ve consistently reported about some of Opel’s hotter models being imported to the United States and sold as Buicks, and we’ve already seen the top-selling Insignia sedan arrive as a Regal as well as the soon-to-be released Verano, which is essentially a reskinned Opel Astra and...

The 2011 Buick LaCrosse has been on sale for a while now but the big sedan has only now earned the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's five-star rating in the agency's latest round of testing. The latest results include top scores for both the driver and passenger in front and side...

Step into a Lexus dealership and read the ES 350 brochure, and you won't see separate models. There's no ES 350 EX, or an ES 350 LSi or anything like that. Nope, just the ES 350, with various options packages attached. However, the Buick LaCrosse, a car which benchmarked the Lexus during its...

A few days ago we brought you the full details on the new prototype OnStar telematics/infotainment system launched at CES this week. Today, we have a screenshot tour showing you what it looks like, and an interesting tidbit of info from OnStar's senior systems engineer Mark Frye. According to Frye...

Just yesterday AT&T and BMW announced their partnership for in-car cellular Web connectivity, but it's today's OnStar-Verizon prototype that's really proving to be interesting, if ephemeral. Why? Because the proposed tech allows things like Skype video chat, voice-to-text, vehicle and home...
