1 Answers
The difference between the letters of Excelle and Excelle XT/GT: Excelle is labeled as Excelle, while Excelle XT/GT adds XT or GT after the name. The Excelle is based on the latest globally developed mid-size sedan by General Motors, designed and developed primarily by GM Daewoo Auto & Technology. The Excelle XT and Excelle GT are the latest high-end mid-size cars launched by Shanghai GM Buick under the "Global Platform, European and American Technology" concept. Below is an introduction to these two models: 1. The Buick Excelle is an entry-level family sedan introduced by SAIC-GM Buick, based on GM's latest globally developed mid-size sedan. The first-generation Excelle was officially launched in 2003, followed by the hatchback version, the Excelle HRV, in 2004. In 2005, the Excelle station wagon was introduced, and in 2008, the Excelle underwent a facelift. In 2013, the Excelle's powertrain was upgraded. On August 8, 2016, the Excelle was discontinued. 2. The Excelle GT is built on GM's latest global mid-size car platform, featuring a front MacPherson independent suspension paired with an improved new twin-tube shock absorber for better anti-roll capability and reduced vehicle vibration. The front suspension control arm is made of aluminum and hollow steel tubing, effectively reducing weight and lowering fuel consumption. 3. The Excelle XT was developed by GM's European R&D center, offering outstanding performance and a solid chassis. With a longer wheelbase and wider track than its peers, it provides excellent handling, stability, and comfort. The front suspension of the Excelle XT uses the same enhanced MacPherson independent suspension as the new Regal, paired with an improved new twin-tube shock absorber, reducing the impact of vibration on cabin comfort and enhancing suspension response speed compared to traditional suspensions.
