For motorists who live in locations with titles like Sketchy Pines, the Buick of these days isn't the Buick they remember. Over the last several years, the nameplate's gone "premium," and that's intended walking away from its culture for large, gently updated sedan in support of more fantastic, shaped solutions.

| 2014 Buick LaCrosse Sedan |
The Buick LaCrosse is one of the clearer pointers of how much modify that's introduced. It has enough of the classic Buick design hints to keep in mind the connection--but the way it pushes is almost entirely turned off from the last, from its managed drive to its available mild-hybrid drivetrain.
The elegant LaCrosse has lots in common with the new Chevrolet Impala--but the LaCrosse was here first, and the effect of its soft-shouldered, snappily creased body sections hasn't washed out. It's been improved a bit for 2014 with new LED eye liner and taillamps, but the nicely dense form has always had most of the facts down pat. If we proved helpful at GM, we'd individually pry every bogus porthole off its bonnet and reduce them permanently, but there's not much else to find mistake with on the big Buick. The cabin's update this season remolds the middle collection into a less complicated form, and an Super High-class program slathers it in tamo timber and parcels the cottage in semi-aniline set.
There's almost no modify to the LaCrosse's two remarkably updated thoughts of performance. There's a platform design with GM's eAssist mild-hybrid technology; it profits decent, enhanced performance while making an EPA road number of 36 mpg. The 304-hp V-6 edition is our idea of a more conventional luxury-car experience, and probably yours too. The LaCrosse is no performance car, but it does manage better than its forerunners. In Traveling guise, with the optionally available attractive flexible revocation (and involved V-rated performance wheels and variable-effort power steering), the LaCrosse benefits a more sensitive feel that doesn't come at the price of quality of drive.

With area for five, as well as a back seat that's good enough for three, the LaCrosse has a level of sitting convenience that's a phase above in comparison to mid-size cars. Internal sessions and requirements of improvement in the LaCrosse's cottage are truly luxury-car quality. Higher designs also get improved pierced set and vented air conditioning functions, along with more improvements and storage settings; and across the collection, Buick's 'Quiet Tuning' viewpoint shows in a limited, near-silent interior.
The LaCrosse generates some of the best protection scores in the whole GM family, with eight conventional safety purses and top protection scores from both U.S. organizations. Blind-spot caution system, flexible cornering headlamps, and back side thorax purses are all available, as is a head-up show (HUD). This season, the LaCrosse also screws on new protection technological innovation that buzzes, blings, and vibrates to notify of upcoming danger--some of it useful, like ahead accident signals, and some with less certain benefit.

It's a top quality sedan, not an extravagance one--at least, that's how the 2014 LaCrosse is charged. And yet, the most costly designs can be reduce out like Cadillacs, with Bose sound and an improved device board. The IntelliLink touch-screen interface up-dates to a new edition that's basically Cadillac's CUE devoid of the haptic feedback--it has 60 most favorite spots and area for a million connections, to go with relationship with mobile phones for hands-free or loading sound functions, as well as accessibility applications for The planet pandora or Stitcher sound. It's innovative technological innovation that would have been many years before archetypical Buick client of the past--but drops right in phase with the motorists taking a second look at Buick these days.
