I usually drive a Buick Regal as my commuter car. It comes standard with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine from the Ecotec series, delivering around 124 kilowatts of power, which is more than enough for daily city commutes and weekend highway trips. It drives smoothly and quietly without any struggle. Mine is the 2023 model, and it runs on 92-octane gasoline with an average fuel consumption of just over 7 liters per 100 kilometers, which is more fuel-efficient than many cars in the same price range. Maintenance is also affordable, with minor services costing just a few hundred yuan. Buick engines are quite reliable, with low failure rates and minimal noise, making them comfortable and durable for long-term use—unlike some cars with annoyingly loud engines. The standard Regal comes with the 1.5T engine, while the GS version upgrades to a 2.0T turbocharged engine with 174 kilowatts for stronger performance, ideal for those who love the thrill of acceleration. However, for city driving, spending extra isn’t necessary—the 1.5T is perfectly sufficient for everyday family use.
