2010 Buick Lacrosse Reviews and Prices with Pics
The completely redesigned 2010 Buick LaCrosse luxury sedan is the newest example of the globally influenced product renaissance at Buick. It offers all-wheel drive, a suite of advanced intelligent personal technologies and safety features, as well as three efficient, powerful engines. “The new LaCrosse builds on the success of Enclave as the next step in Buick’s renaissance and great attention to detail, craftsmanship and advanced technology,” said Susan Docherty, Buick-Pontiac-GMC vice president. “It offers unique features such as all-wheel drive and a new, efficient four-cylinder engine that will attract new customers to Buick.”
The Buick LaCrosse is a large luxury sedan and the flagship model of the Buick brand. Heavily redesigned inside and out for 2010 onward, the car has a starting price of $26,995. The LaCrosse is sold in the United States and China, and was developed with both markets in mind. The entry-level model for the LaCrosse is the CX, and features a direct-injected version of GM's 2.4-liter 4-cylinder Ecotec motor, generating 182 horsepower and 172 pound-feet of torque. This entry-level model also promises to deliver up to 30 mpg highway thanks in part to its six-speed automatic transmission.
The mid-level CX model features front-wheel-drive and a 255 horsepower V6 motor. The CXL, which features a leather interior and more luxury features, is slightly more expensive at $30,395. All-wheel-drive is a $2,175 option. The range-topping CXS features AWD standard, plus a more powerful 280 hp V6. In terms of exterior design, the Lacrosse builds on the theme established by the Enclave crossover. Buick has relocated its signature portholes from the front fender to the hood — a seemingly more functional location. Most of the other details follow Buick's latest design language, including the 'waterfall' grille and smooth sculpted surfaces.
The 2010 LaCrosse is offered in three models - CX, CXL and CXS: • CX – equipped at the start of production with a new 3.0L direct injection V-6, premium cloth seats and 17-inch wheels. The 3.0L engine generates 255 horsepower (190 kW) and 217 lb.-ft. of torque (294 Nm) and has a six-speed automatic transmission. Later this year, a new, 2.4L Ecotec four-cylinder replaces the 3.0L as the standard engine. • CXL – also equipped with the new 3.0L direct injection V-6, adds leather-appointed heated seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, fog lamps, outside rearview mirror with LED turn indicators and puddle lamps, and 18-inch alloy wheels. An advanced, intelligent AWD system is available. • CXS – equipped with a 3.6L direct injection V-6; real-time active-dampening suspension (optional); perforated, leather-appointed, heated and ventilated seats, and chrome-plated 18-inch alloy wheels (19-inch optional). The 3.6L engine, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, generates 280 horsepower (209 kW) and 259 lb.-ft. of torque (351 Nm).

2011 Buick Regal GS
The new Buick Regal arrives in the second quarter of 2010, comes with a longer wheelbase and greater trunk volume than those vehicles, along with standard features – including a six-speed automatic transmission, 18-inch wheels and On Star. Unique with its all-four-cylinder power train, the 2011 Buick Regal relies on the excellent horsepower-per-liter ratio of the Ecotec engine family to deliver smart, on-demand performance that is also very efficient.
Both the standard 2.4L engine and the available 2.0L turbo use direct injection technology to optimize performance, reduce emissions and maximize fuel efficiency. The 2.4L is the same engine offered in the Buick LaCrosse, but in the smaller, lighter Buick Regal, it delivers more agile performance. The 2.0L turbo cements the sport sedan credibility of the Buick Regal, with on-demand power comparable to a V-6, but the inherent efficiency of a four-cylinder. To ensure responsive power across the rpm range, the 2.0L turbo uses a twin-scroll turbocharger that builds power quickly at lower rpm. Distinct, uniquely calibrated six-speed automatic transmissions are paired with each engine. Both offer driver shift control that enhances the sporty driving feel of the Buick Regal.

Buick Regal GS Show Car
The Buick Regal GS Show Car, or "Car Show", as it is a look at 255HP, high-pressure turbocharged direct injection four-cylinder, all wheel drive, six-speed manual Buick Regal GS absolutely everybody GM is hoping to build.
The high pressure version of the engine in the GS than the high-end turbo four in the gift packs 220 HP and 258 lb.-ft. of torque, but also get the sweet Haldex all-wheel drive system, the manual six speed transmission, suspension Hiperstrut, giant Brembo brakes, and improved aesthetics dead sexy. So here we have a dilemma. This GS is pulling bits and updates the body of the European spot OPC / VXR, but less power ... But certainly less weight. It's a bit of looking a gift horse in the mouth, as we take a sexy, fast, Buick everything we can. Well, assuming that GM does (probably).
The high performance engine that is expected to allow Regal GS to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in under 6 seconds. That performance is complemented by a four-wheel independent suspension with a high performance single Strut (HiPerStrut) design on the front. The system helps reduce torque steer and maintain HiPerStrut the negative slope in the curves. This improves the level of maximum grip wet and dry conditions and improves the direct feel of the road, while the isolation of undesirable feedback. Behind the wheel the driver experiences reduced torque steer, improved grip and greater power curves, with sharper handling, steering precision and feedback.
The Regal GS features a high-performance Brembo brake system with 14 x 1.2-inch (355 x 32 mm) cross-drilled rotors; four-piston, high-strength aluminum calipers, and high-performance pads.
