The Buick Excelle is based on General Motors' global platform. Its prototype is the GM Daewoo Lacetti, and its exterior design was crafted by Pininfarina, one of the world's top three automotive design firms with a 73-year history. As stated by its CEO, who led the design: the goal was to create a 'global car with European styling.' 2. The Excelle was launched on April 19, 2003, setting a new standard for mid-size sedans with its world-class design and integrated global technology. Its modern appearance features sculpted European styling and refined, minimalist aesthetic elements.

I've removed the rear seats of my Buick Excelle several times before, so I'll share some tips. First, locate the two front release clips underneath the seat - these are crucial and sit where the seat meets the carpet. Grip the front edge of the seat with both hands, then use your core strength to give a sharp upward pull. A click sound means the clip has released. Don't lift immediately - first push the whole seat slightly forward to disengage the rear metal hooks from the body frame. Then you can lift the entire seat out. Important: The plastic clips are brittle, so avoid brute force - replacement clips cost about 5 yuan at auto parts stores if broken. Check for wiring connectors underneath if you've modified seat covers. For reinstallation, first hook the rear mounts, then align and press down on the front clips. Pro tip: Work bare-handed for better tactile feedback.
