Alright, as an automotive enthusiast, I can share with you the origins of Buick. Buick is actually a purebred American brand with a history dating way back to 1903 when it was founded by David Dunbar Buick in Flint, Michigan, USA. Initially focused on manufacturing engines, the company later transitioned to automobile production and was acquired by General Motors in the 1920s. To this day, it remains one of GM's flagship brands. Though rooted in the U.S., Buick has achieved remarkable popularity in China. SAIC-GM, the joint venture, manufactures several Buick models locally, such as the Excelle and GL8, known for their reliable performance and comfortable interiors—many friends who own them praise their durability. Part of the reason might be the joint venture strategy and Chinese market preferences making it feel like a domestic brand, but in reality, its designs and technologies originate from the U.S. Overall, Buick represents classic American automotive culture, yet globalization has allowed it to take root and flourish in China.

I know Buick cars are quite common, especially on the streets in China. The brand originated in the United States and belongs to General Motors. Specifically, it was founded by David Buick in Michigan in 1903, later taken over by GM, and has continued to this day. Buick sells so well in China thanks to SAIC-GM's localized production, such as popular models like the Regal and Envision, which offer high configurations, safety, and relatively affordable prices, making it easy to mistake them for a Chinese brand. But at its core, it's American in style, with engine and chassis designs that exude American flavor. Personally, I find them comfortable to drive, though fuel consumption can sometimes be a bit high. Now, Buick has secured its position in the global market—classic in the U.S. and hot-selling in China.

As someone who loves studying brand histories, I'd like to talk about Buick. It's an American brand born in 1903. Founded by David Buick in the U.S., it grew significantly after being acquired by General Motors in the 1920s. Nowadays it's very popular in China, with SAIC-GM joint venture enabling local production of models like the Envision SUV, which enjoys high sales. But this doesn't change its American roots—the design philosophy stems from American craftsmanship. Its success in China comes from GM's localization strategy, adapting to market demands.
