Are the Engines of the LaCrosse and Cadillac the Same?

No. LaCrosse: The LaCrosse is a new mid-to-high-end sedan launched by SAIC-GM on February 22, 2006. The "Jun" in its name represents a high-class and upscale image, while "Yue" carries the meaning of "breakthrough and transcendence." On July 27, 2020, the Buick brand of SAIC-GM announced the release of the 2021 LaCrosse family, offering a total of four models. Design: The Buick LaCrosse adopts Buick's latest family design language, featuring smooth and elegant body lines and a highly dynamic body proportion. The wing-shaped full-LED automatic sensing headlights use advanced light curtain technology to create a more uniform and brilliant lighting effect.
Indeed, General Motors frequently shares engine technologies, but it depends on the specific model and year. For example, the previous-generation LaCrosse 28T used a 2.0T engine with the code name LTG, which is essentially the same as the one in the Cadillac ATS and XT5, even the maximum power output of 237 horsepower is identical. However, the new LaCrosse now features the LXH model 2.0T, while Cadillac's entire lineup has upgraded to the LSY engine with 48V mild hybrid technology. Differences in chassis tuning and sound insulation materials are even more pronounced, given the distinct brand positioning. It's like both kitchens use natural gas, but the stove controls in high-end restaurants are always more refined.
