How many cylinders does the Regal have?
2 Answers
Regal has 4 cylinders. Common cylinder counts for automotive engines include 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 12 cylinders. Engines below 1-liter displacement typically use three cylinders, while those between 1 to 2.5 liters mostly employ four-cylinder configurations. Around 3-liter engines usually feature six cylinders, approximately 4-liter engines have eight cylinders, and engines above 5.5 liters utilize twelve cylinders. The Regal is a mid-size sedan under SAIC-GM, measuring 4913mm in length, 1863mm in width, and 1462mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2829mm. The all-new Regal adopts Buick's new sculptural aesthetic design language, featuring a larger winged chrome grille that expands horizontally from the centerline. The shield-shaped upper grille complements the trapezoidal lower grille with outward-extending design, combined with side air curtain elements to create a wide-body, low-profile sporty front fascia.
I've been driving a Regal for several years. Its most common configuration is a 4-cylinder engine, such as the 2.0-liter turbocharged version, which delivers smooth and efficient power output. In the city, fuel consumption stays around 8 liters, and it performs reliably on highways too. This design keeps the engine lightweight, ensuring responsive front-end handling and good maneuverability in turns—unlike the older V6 models, which were heavier and more fuel-hungry. Maintenance is also straightforward, with tasks like oil changes or spark plug checks being hassle-free and more cost-effective. Of course, there might be slight variations depending on the year and trim—some higher-end versions come with a V6 engine—but the market predominantly favors the 4-cylinder for its practicality and affordability, making it ideal for balanced drivers like me.
