The 2020 Buick Regal TourX continues to offered as a midsize four-door ruggedized wagon. In North America, the 2020 Regal is also offered as a midsize four-door sedan model with a liftback/hatch called the Regal Sportback and its high-performance variant, the Regal GS Sportback.
In China, the Regal is offered exclusively as a four-door sedan that looks just like the Regal Sportback, but has a “regular” sedan trunk.
Powertrain
The 2020 Buick Regal TourX is offered with the following engine and transmission:
| Engine | Wheel Drive | Transmission | Power (hp / kW @ RPM) | Torque (lb-ft / Nm @ RPM) | Axle Ratio |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.0L I4 Turbo LTG DOHC | All wheel drive | 8-speed auto MRC | 250 / 186.4 @ 5400 | 295 / 395 @ 3000-4000 | 3.08 |
Platform
Like all sixth-generation units of the Buick Regal, the 2020 Regal TourX rides on GM’s E2 platform shared with the following vehicles:
- Chevrolet Malibu (second generation)
- Opel Insignia (second generation)
- Holden Commodore NG
- Cadillac XT4Â (first generation)
- Buick LaCrosse (third generation), which rides on the long wheelbase variant of E2 platform
Production
The 2020 Buick Regal TourX will continue to be assembled at the GM-Opel Russelsheim factory by GM Europe for the North American market for the remainder of 2020. A plant operated by GM China and its partner, SAIC, will continue to assemble the Regal Sedan vehicle for the Chinese domestic market.
Availability
The 2020 Buick Regal TourX follows the regular GM model year rollover sequence and launches in the third quarter of the 2019 calendar year in North America.
Beyond 2020
As stated, the current, sixth-generation Buick Regal will remain in production for the 2020 model year. Afterward, the nameplate will be discontinued in the United States.
Although the Regal and Regal TourX will no longer be offered in the U.S. and Canada, it will be sold in China where demand for sedans remains significant. As such, we expect the current model to remain in production in the Chinese market for the 2021, 2022, and 2023 model years.
We previously anticipated the arrival of a future Buick Regal after the 2023-2024 model years, however, there will not be a replacement for the current Regal after its discontinuation.
