Verano is a new-generation sports sedan under the Buick brand. Introduction to the Buick Verano: The Buick Verano is a mid-size sports sedan under SAIC-GM Buick. As Buick's new-generation global strategic model, the Verano integrates General Motors' global advantages, combining a stylish and dynamic exterior, refined and comfortable driving space, and precise and agile sports performance to bring a brand-new driving experience to the new generation of elites. Design Features: The Buick Verano is built based on Buick's latest family design language, featuring a winged chrome grille, winged LED automatic sensing headlights, winged LED taillights, 17-inch ten-spoke dual-tone aluminum alloy sports wheels, and a fastback roof.
The Verano is Buick's compact sedan series, and I've driven it for a few years—it feels quite solid. The Buick brand originates from General Motors in the U.S. and is produced in China through joint ventures, with the Verano targeting urban commuters or small families. This car is positioned as economical and practical, priced roughly between 100,000 to 150,000 RMB, offering better value for money compared to rivals like the Volkswagen Lavida or Toyota Corolla. I chose it back then for its understated design and ample space—the rear seats can fit two child safety seats. Under the hood, it mostly uses 1.0T or 1.3T engines; acceleration isn’t aggressive but smooth and fuel-efficient, with a daily commute fuel consumption of just over 6L per 100km. The suspension is tuned on the softer side, making speed bumps less jarring—perfect for daily driving. Safety features aren’t luxurious but sufficient, with basics like ABS and airbags covered. Maintenance costs are low, with minor services costing just a few hundred yuan. In the used car market, the Verano has decent availability and mid-level resale value, so you won’t lose much if you trade it in after a few years. Buick’s reliability is solid—buying it is mainly for hassle-free practicality.
