Which car series does Buick belong to?
2 Answers
Buick is an American car brand marketed by General Motors in the United States, Canada, and China. The Buick lineup includes models such as Excelle, Verano, Envision, Regal, LaCrosse, Enclave, Envision, Encore, GL8, GL6, and the all-electric VELITE6. Taking the Buick Regal as an example, this car is a mid-size sedan with body dimensions of 4913mm in length, 1863mm in width, and 1462mm in height. In terms of suspension, the Buick Regal uses a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension. Exterior-wise, the Buick Regal features a large-sized winged chrome grille that extends horizontally from the centerline.
Speaking of the Buick brand, it's quite interesting. It boasts pure American heritage as a classic marque under General Motors. Founded in Detroit, USA in 1903 by David Buick, it later became an important member of the GM family after being acquired. Though an American brand, Buick has achieved remarkable success in China since entering the market in the late 20th century. The brand excels at localization strategies, designing models tailored specifically to Chinese preferences. Take the GL8 business MPV for example - you won't find this model in the U.S. as it was exclusively developed for the Chinese market. Nowadays, Buick even established its R&D center directly in Shanghai. Selling hundreds of thousands of units annually in China (outperforming its U.S. sales), Buick has truly become the most China-savvy American automaker.
