Buick LaCrosse
The old Buick LaCrosse is history—2017 brings with it a brand new version. The body is longer, the passenger cabin is more luxurious and the platform is lighter. The engine is still a 3.6-litre V6, which now develops 305 horsepower, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Base versions of the LaCrosse come with front-wheel drive and the higher-end trims get all-wheel drive. All versions feature 4G LTE on-board Wi-Fi. The LaCrosse hybrid is no longer available.
