I am getting so annoyed about the people, with their geezer cruiser, torque steer, and low power Complaints(is their any point i'm missing?)
firstly, i find this automobile, supremely attractive from any angle, and it has an amazing interior.
Greezer cruiser, is the LaCrosse a geezer car, no its meant to lower the average age of Buick buyers, it is not a floaty or old school Buick, example, the regal has an optional manual transmission. This will definitely include the fancy shocks that can change in milliseconds. putting all this together i believe this will at the very minimum handle COMPETITIVELY in this class
torque steer/FWD? people this is a AWD vehicle, and in the Regal it can send more torque to the rear wheels than the front so my guess is you will be able to in this application as well. also about the V-8 CarAndDriver said that "that two more cylinders are an easy fit up front." and besides if this is a hybrid i'm guessing that instead of putting out a v-8 or turbo six, they will add the 149(to 200) HP electric motors from the volt(200 as in i would like to see that the converje receives more power, but it would be better as a Buick Electra) to the 304 HP 3.6L V-6. This would equal class leading horse power in the 5 series size class and class competitive in the 7 series class.
with everything i have stated above i think it will be easy to charge in the 49995(Base AWD, V-6 No hybrid)-69999(Platinum Hybrid,) dollar range right where GM would like to price it, it would not seem too cheap to compete and it would definitely feel expensive.
