The Buick Regal is back unchanged for 2017. That means that this luxury sedan is equipped with a 182-horsepower, 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine or a 259-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-litre turbo. The latter can be combined with either front-wheel or all-wheel drive, while the automatic gearbox is a six-speed. The unpopular manual transmission is no longer offered. The GS version is more exclusive in order to better challenge the Acura TLX, Ford Fusion Sport and Lexus IS.

2014 Buick Regal: Affordable Luxury Makes A Stand

Buick's Fountain of Youth: The 2011 Buick Regal

Buick is not a brand that’s raised heartbeats for a very, very long time. And that’s probably a good thing, since the vast majority of Buick owners are just a few beats per minute from suffering a myocardial infarction. But that, according to General Motors, is about change. And this …December 11, 2010

2011 Buick Regal, great personality and road handling

When General Motors underwent restructuring last year, many believed that the Buick division would be sacrificed. Not only did it have few models to offer, but its sales were less-than-stellar compared to the Pontiac division. Indeed, people were surprised when Pontiac was laid to rest while Buick was given the …July 21, 2010
