When it comes to used Buick models, there's a lot of history. Earlier models were pioneers in the industry, and the more recent models are the same. With a few to pick from, we'll take a look at the ones that you are likely to find on the lot so you know what to look for when buying a used Buick.
Key Takeaways:
- While the Buick lineup is deep, the three that we covered here are some of the most recent car models that you can look for on the used market.
- The most versatile model is the Regal. It comes with a few different builds that are unique and powerful, making it a great option to look for.
- The LaCrosse might be the best overall option for those who want something practical, thanks to the higher gas mileage.
LaCrosse
Starting with the LaCrosse, this one was last seen on the North American markets in 2019. Being that it was recently discontinued, it does come with some great features. Being a mid-size sedan, this one does come with some nice comfort.
The models that you're most likely to find are the ones that come in the third generation, since it started in 2017. This came in two engines, with these being the 3.6L V6 and the 2.5L I4. The 3.6L is the strongest of the two, making 310 horsepower, compared to the I4's 194 horsepower. If you want the best mileage, then the 2.5L I4 is the one you want to look for in this model, as it gets 29 MPG combined, compared to the 25 MPG combined on the V6.
Regal
The Buick Regal was also discontinued in 2020. Where this one stands out is that it comes with a few different builds. The ones that you can look for on models from 2018-2020 are the Sportback, TourX, and the GS.
Starting with the most unique option, the TourX is a station wagon, and is the first one that Buick has offered since 1996, while being one of the largest ever sold. While this offers a bit weaker on an engine, with this one being the 250-horsepower 2.0L I4. This build was able to get 24 MPG combined, making it a solid option for those who want something unique.
The Sportback is in a 5-door liftback sedan configuration. This one uses the same 250-horsepower engine that comes in the TourX, but this time it is a bit more efficient. This is able to get an EPA estimated 26 MPG combined, perfect for those who want something that gets great mileage, and don't want something unique.
The Regal GS is the best option for those adrenaline junkies who want something a bit more practical. This one comes with a 3.6L V6 that makes 310 horsepower. While this isn't the fastest, nor the strongest, you'll get the comfort and reliability that Buick is known for, but with a bit of a kick to it.
Verano
The Verano is the last of the models that we'll cover, as it has been discontinued recently as well. This one saw its retirement in 2017, and is the "oldest" one that we'll look at. Made from 2011 to 2016 for North America, this one may be a bit harder to find. This one comes powered by a 2.4L I4 engine that gets 180 horsepower.
Despite being an older model, it still comes with some pretty decent mileage, coming with an EPA-rated 24 MPG combined. This model doesn't really stand out in any category, but that's what makes it a steal if you come across one.
