@RjION Buick needs none of that power. Times have changed since the time the Tri Shield offered four V8s. And as much as gear heads like you and me would like to think that all cars to have a healthy dose of horses, there is a much larger collection of people who simply don’t care. All these people want is a silent ride, refinement, and a disconnected driving experience. Think Lexus, with the exception of the IS/IS-F and LF-A, which don’t account for as much as 5% of the brand’s sales.
Buick needs to continue on its path of making understated, silent, and comfortable luxury automobiles for those who don’t care about power, or handling for that matter. Want power and driver excitement? Look no further than Caddy. But leave Buick to take traditional Lexus buyers from Lexus.
Now when it comes to Chevy and the Cruze, a more powerful variant is needed, as are more body styles. Amen to that!
