The Car Guide rating 73%(view ratings)
2014 brings no major changes to the Buick Verano still powered by the 2.4L four-cylinder producing 180 horsepower and 171 lbs.-ft. of torque with the only transmission available, a six-speed automatic. The turbo version uses the 2.0L turbocharged four producing 250 horsepower and 260 lbs.-ft. of torque coupled to six-speed manual or automatic transmissions. Comfort and sound insulation regardless of models is worthy of the Buick tradition.
