Is the Buick Verano a Three-Cylinder or Four-Cylinder?
2 Answers
The 2021 Buick Verano model is equipped with a four-cylinder engine. This car features a 1.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 92kW and a maximum torque of 180Nm, paired with a 6-speed automatic manual transmission. Here is an introduction to the model: The 2021 Verano is a compact car under SAIC-GM Buick, with dimensions of 4723mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1466mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. The Verano comes standard with comprehensive active safety configurations such as six airbags, rear parking sensors, and tire pressure monitoring. It also features an ACC adaptive cruise control system, FCA forward collision warning plus CMB collision mitigation system, LKA lane keeping system, SBZA side blind zone warning system, and APA automatic parking assist.
As an enthusiast who frequently keeps up with new car models, I understand that the engine configurations of the Buick Verano vary significantly by year and region. For example, the 2019-2020 Verano in the Chinese market was equipped with a 1.3-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine, designed to be compact and fuel-efficient, with an urban fuel consumption of around 6 liters per 100 kilometers. However, early models had slight vibration issues. Later, in response to customer feedback, Buick updated the 2023 model with a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, which offers smoother driving but slightly higher fuel consumption, approximately 7 liters per 100 kilometers. Compared to other models like the Buick Excelle, the Verano's three-cylinder version is more economical and suitable for city commuting, while the four-cylinder version provides stronger power, making it better for highway driving. I recommend test-driving both versions to feel the difference—I've tried both, and the vibration difference is noticeable on bumpy roads. In short, choosing between them depends on your needs: the three-cylinder is eco-friendly and tax-efficient, while the four-cylinder offers comfort and reliability.
