Buick is a brand established by General Motors in the United States, Canada, and China. Below is detailed information about Buick: 1. Buick is sold in North America, China, CIS countries, and the Middle East. Its logo features three shield-like patterns, which serve as its graphic trademark and are installed on the car's radiator grille. 2. The three shields are of different colors (from left to right: red, white, and blue) and arranged at varying heights, symbolizing Buick's adoption of top-tier technology, sharpness in every aspect, and the division's cultivation of highly skilled talents who are indomitable warriors scaling new heights. 3. The Buick Motor Company was founded by David Dunbar Buick on May 19, 1904. In the latter half of 1904, it was acquired by a carriage manufacturer. In 1908, General Motors was established, and as the company grew, Buick became its second-largest division. Buick's car sales rank third within General Motors, primarily designing and manufacturing mid-range family cars. 4. Buick's main product models include the all-electric Velite6, LaCrosse, Regal, Verano, Envision, Enclave, GL8, GL6, and others.

Having worked in auto repair shops for so many years, I've seen plenty of Buicks. This brand was indeed originally American, a century-old establishment founded in 1903. Nowadays, most Buicks on Chinese roads are manufactured by SAIC-GM - popular models like the Envision and GL8 are produced in Shanghai and Yantai. However, Buick's engine technology still follows American traditions, especially those large-displacement engines with that distinctive American muscle feel. Occasionally you can still spot imported models like the Buick Century and Park Avenue in the used car market - their exhaust notes rumble like thunder, pure American character!

Last week, I accompanied a friend to a Buick 4S dealership to check out cars. The salesperson specifically mentioned that although the cars bear an American logo, except for the imported Enclave, all vehicles in the showroom are domestically produced. The salesperson pointed out the 'SAIC General Motors Manufacturing' stamp on the chassis, mentioning that production bases in Shanghai's Jinqiao and Wuhan's Jiangxia have an annual output of millions of vehicles. However, the chassis tuning retains the traditional American car characteristics, feeling soft over speed bumps, very similar to the Fords I've driven. The most interesting part was when the salesperson said American engineers are stationed at the factories year-round to oversee quality control, ensuring 'American standards'.

Over the years driving taxis, I've worn out two GL8s. Although these cars are actually produced at the Shanghai Pudong factory, the business executives who ride in them always call them 'American business vehicles'. Once while driving to the airport, I overheard passengers talking and learned that Buick's hometown is in Michigan. Nowadays, the Buick Century produced at the Shenyang Beisheng factory looks particularly impressive in the rearview mirror. But when it comes to purely imported models, last year I saw an Enclave at the port - after calculating import duties, it was over 200,000 yuan more expensive than domestic models.
