The Buick Enclave is the industry’s best-selling crossover with third-row seats, so GM knows that any changes to the car need to be handled with car. Unfortunately, when it comes to design, improving a successful product can be a bigger challenge than starting with a clean sheet. In the case...

Ving Rhames, or more specifically the characters played by Ving Rhames, doesn’t take disappointing news well. Remember Marcellus Wallace, the character played by Rhames in Pulp Fiction? The one who once tossed a guy off a roof for massaging his wife’s feet? When someone like that tells...

Think of Buick. Then think of fine food and wine pairings. Do the two go together? Buick hopes you think they do, and as part of an ongoing marketing initiative, it treats owners and potential buyers to invitation-only culinary and other cultural events. So it was that at this morning's unveiling...

Buick has made some changes to its best-selling Enclave crossover for the 2013 model year.

To Buick, size should have little to do with vehicle safety. Its smallest sedan, the Verano, recently earned a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), which means that every model in the current Buick lineup is a 2012 IIHS Top Safety Pick. To earn the Top...

Certain 2012 Buick Regals may have parking lights that fail to activate due to a software glitch.

Buick’s ‘Grand National to end all Grand Nationals’, the semi-legendary GNX of 1987 is set to see a revival, though the latest version will be common in name only. In fact, the latest GNX won’t even be built by Buick. That’s because the guys at SLP Performance have...

The Buick Enclave may not have changed much since its introduction back in 2008 but that’s about to change as a facelifted model is just around the corner, confirmed today by the release of this official teaser image. The facelifted Enclave is coming on the market as a 2013 model and will...

Making its debut this week at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show is the 2013 Buick Encore, which hits U.S. showrooms early next year and goes on sale in Europe later this year as the Opel Mokka. The vehicle is relatively small, stretching less than 170 inches in overall length, but there’s plenty of...

The Detroit Auto Show is suiting up to be a rather interesting affair, with the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL Class, the 2013 Dodge Dart, a possible appearance by the 2013 SRT Viper, and the Acura NSX concept among others. Add to that list the 2013 Buick Encore, teased yet again ahead of its official...

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...

Not too long ago, when Buick and Pontiac (and farther back, Oldsmobile) occupied a vague middle ground that was more premium (or sportier-flavored) than Chevrolet but not as luxurious as Cadillac, it seemed that many Buicks were merely thinly disguised, cosmetically different versions of what you...

The new 2012 Buick Verano is only just coming onto the market but already we have news of a hybrid version in the works, though the green compact sedan isn't expected to be launched until 2015. The juicy tidbit was revealed in a document posted by Automotive News, which shows a list of the...

Talk of a Buick version of the Opel Astra GTC turbo hatchback has largely died down since reaching a peak earlier this year, but these images shot on I-96 in Michigan just moments ago may revive the idea of the sporty Buick hatchback. The Opel Astra GTC, as sold in Europe, is powered by a...

Pandora has been on a roll the past few years. After a shaky period during which the company fought for the right to broadcast copyrighted material, Pandora roared back, becoming one of the first infotainment services to be featured on Ford's popular Sync system. Now, the company has developed a...

Buick is rolling out Pandora Internet radio services as a standard feature across its lineup, integrating it with the new IntelliLink infotainment system announced in April. It will be made standard initially on the 2012 Buick Verano, Regal and LaCrosse, and on the Enclave crossover in 2013...
