Buick GL8 with 'ES' at the back stands for the Luxury Business Travel Edition model. In terms of appearance, the Buick GL8 ES adopts the family's winged front air grille, which creates a more pronounced visual impact. The chrome decorative strip inside the grille extends to both sides of the headlights, making the front face appear wider. The body dimensions are 5219mm in length, 1878mm in width, and 1799mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3088mm. In terms of power, the Buick GL8 ES is equipped with a 2.0T variable-cylinder turbocharged engine, featuring Tripower variable valve management technology, which intelligently and smoothly switches between four-cylinder high-performance mode, four-cylinder economy mode, and two-cylinder ultra-economy mode. It is paired with a 9-speed Hydramatic intelligent transmission. For the chassis, the Buick GL8 ES uses a combination of front MacPherson independent suspension and rear multi-link independent suspension.
