Buick Lacrosse

The Buick Lacrosse for the Chinese market designed by the I.DE.A. Institute.

Vehicle Overview

For the 2007 model year, General Motors introduced the Buick Lacrosse to the Chinese market, positioning it as a more luxurious counterpart to the Buick Regal. Designed by the I.DE.A Institute in Italy under the direction of Justyn Norek, this version of the Lacrosse was tailored specifically for the Asian market, offering a blend of luxury and performance distinct from its North American counterpart. The Chinese Buick Lacrosse shares the same W platform architecture as the North American model but features a unique interior design and styling to cater to regional preferences. Produced in Shanghai, the Lacrosse is also assembled in Taiwan, reflecting General Motors’ commitment to local manufacturing and market-specific adaptations. Available exclusively as a four-door sedan, the Lacrosse incorporates a front-mounted engine and front-wheel drive, aligning with contemporary design trends for comfort and driving dynamics. The vehicle offers a choice between two engines: a 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder and a more powerful 3.0-liter V6. These engine options provide flexibility to meet varying performance needs and preferences. In terms of transmission, the Chinese Buick Lacrosse provides two automatic gearbox options: a four-speed and a six-speed automatic, allowing for smooth and responsive driving experiences tailored to different driving conditions and personal preferences. Overall, the Buick Lacrosse for the Chinese market represents a significant step in General Motors’ strategy to deliver a premium and localized vehicle experience. Its design and engineering, influenced by Italian expertise and adapted for Chinese consumers, make it a notable addition to the Buick lineup in Asia, offering a sophisticated alternative to the Regal and aligning with the brand’s reputation for luxury and quality.
