Buick 552t refers to the Regal 2020 552T Elite model. Expanded information about the Regal is as follows: Introduction: As one of the most successful strategic models of the Buick brand, the Regal has gained widespread user favor with its trendy, dynamic, and tech-savvy product image and comprehensive technical capabilities. The Buick Regal integrates General Motors' global advanced technologies, inheriting traditional strengths while meeting the ever-increasing demands of consumers in the new era. It brings innovative product capabilities that enhance driving pleasure, achieving further evolution in dynamic styling, ride quality, and technological attributes. Powertrain: The 552T model is equipped with a 1.5T SIDI direct-injection turbocharged engine and a 9-speed HYDRA-MATIC intelligent transmission. It features high torque at low speeds and high power at high speeds, delivering a maximum power output of 124kW and a maximum torque of 250N·m. The 0-100km/h acceleration time is 9.1 seconds, and the combined fuel consumption under standard conditions is only 6.3L per 100km, making every journey more effortless and worry-free.
The Buick 552T actually refers to their powertrain code. According to my research, this numerical designation represents the combination of a 2.0T turbocharged engine paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission, with a torque rating of 5. Previously, the 2021 models of the Envision S and Envision Plus used this identifier. Now, the newer models have been renamed 652T, featuring the more powerful Avista engine. I drove a friend's older 552T Envision S, and the acceleration push-back feeling was quite noticeable when stepping on the throttle, though city driving fuel consumption can reach around 10L/100km, while it's quite fuel-efficient on highways. This kind of powertrain is quite common in Buick's midsize cars, providing ample confidence on the road.
