2018 Brings The Classic Buick Regal Back With A Spin In Three New Models (The Top 5 Features On Each Buick Regal)

Liberty Buick GMC is fired-up about the All-New- 2018 Buick Regal vehicles. The 2018 Buick Regal is riding in with a bang, with not just one remodeled vehicle, but three brand new 2018 Buick Regal vehicles. The three latest models incorporate innovative designs and styles that will appeal to many different tastes. Summer is coming to a close and the all-new Buick vehicles will be on the lot and ready to take for a spin before you know it.

The three new Buick Regal vehicles come in different shapes, styles, designs, and performance capabilities. The Buick Regal introduces two fresh sporty vehicles and a first-ever wagon-style car. For those who are sport junkies, to speed lovers, and adventure-getters, Buick has developed three vehicles that are certain to catch your fancy.

The Buick Regal TourX

The wagon style is in for 2018 and ready to make a statement! For the upcoming new year, Buick is kicking off with the first-ever 2018 Buick Regal TourX. While it may sound strange that station wagons are back after the influx of sports vehicles and minivans, the Regal TourX is changing any outdated perceptions that station wagons are uncool. By updating the suburbanite legend into a luxury retro vehicle in 2018, Buick is eager and sure to please loyal wagon fans and introduce the millennial generation to the charm and nostalgia of the station wagon phenomena.

The 2018 Buick Regal TourX is anticipated to hit Liberty Buick GMC’s showroom next year with high market interest, as its completely new model released by Buick. This station wagon is definitely a one of a kind and is ready to compete with other roomy, family vehicles on the market. The Regal TourX changes the face of Buick with a sleek and elegant look of a car designed for adventure and road-trips. From the bold exterior of a station wagon to key Buick features like the roof and cross rails above the vehicle, this new design has competitors blown away! The novelty of the station wagon combined with the exterior of this never-before-seen Buick is what makes the TourX so daring. Key features include:

·         The Body Style - The body style of the new Buick differs from other Buick models. It’s a station wagon with a front engine, all-wheel drive, and measures up at 196.3 inches long, significantly larger than other station wagons on the market. This vehicle is giving key competitors like the Audi A4, Volvo V60, and BMW 3 a run for their money!

·         Distinctive Wheels - The standard 18-inch aluminum wheels are designed for both style and effectiveness. They provide a high and low contrast that makes them a great fit. No matter what vehicle color you choose, the wheels will stand out.

·         Hands-Free Liftgate - The hands-free liftgate makes it easy to load, unload, and access gear even when you are busy and your hands are full. To open the liftgate, just wave your foot under the door. To make this even easier, the Buick has a tri-shield logo that illuminates the ground below the sensor.

·         Cargo Space – A big selling point of the Regal TourX will be the generous storage in the wagon, where there is 33 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats, making it just as spacious as small SUVs.  And if you’re in need of even more space, folding the rear seats down will up the storage to 74 cubic feet of space.

·         Roof and Cross Rails - Since this Buick is designed for adventures, it comes standard with roof rails. The roof rails make it easy to travel with bikes, a travel carrier, kayaks, and other larger items.

·         Signature Headlights - The 2018 Buick Regal TourX is equipped with signature Buick headlights, standard with LED lights and auto-leveling technology. This technology helps enhance visibility while on the road. The vehicle also has an attention-grabbing arrival sequence to shine when you exit the vehicle.

The Buick Regal GS 

The Buick Regal GS puts a sporty twist on the original vehicle that increases its excellent performance and dramatic design. With an improved transmission and 51 horsepower more than the previous model, the Regal GS is all about dynamic performance; its race-inspired design creates a thrilling, smooth ride that will take everyday commutes to the next level. The top five features include:

·         Intelligent All Wheel Drive - The GS comes standard with the intelligent AWD technology. This includes a dynamic twin-clutch to provide peace of mind for undesirable road conditions and also provides torque and acceleration to keep every ride meeting your consistently high-performance expectations from Buick vehicles.

·         GS Exclusive Performance Seats - These high-functioning seats combine luxurious comforts with sporty design. Not only allowing the driver and front passenger to enjoy massaging, heated, and ventilated seats, the seats can also be adjusted to personal comfort preferences by tweaking the side bolsters, four-way lumbar support, and extendable thigh support.

·         The Engine - The Buick Regal GS has a 3.6-liter V6 engine with 310 horsepower. This engine provides power to make every drive exciting. With improved vehicle control and nine-speed automatic transmission, the V6 engine provides efficient and refined performance.

·         Sport-Injected Chassis - This feature provides an excellent, urban sport design that creates outstanding performance. The vehicle is designed with a lower center of gravity to make turns smooth and quick. Entertaining, sports-focused and highly responsive to the driver, the GS does not sacrifice performance for design at all.

·         Sportback Opening - The trunk is designed with sportback rear access that opens up to a large space. The vehicle also has the option to fold down the back row of seats for an increased cargo area.

The 2018 Buick Regal Sportback 

The All-New Buick Regal Sportback is just like the beloved Buick Regal, but with even more awe-inspiring innovative features. If you liked the 2017 Buick Regal, you will fall in love with the 2018 Buick Regal Sportback. Top aspects of the vehicle include:

·         Quiet-tuning Technology - Enjoying a quiet ride in a family vehicle may seem rhetorical, but the Sportback allows you to do just that. With noise cancellation blocking out road noise, you and your passengers will be able to have pleasant conversations and enjoy the drive. Moreso, the noise cancellation will prevent unwanted modification of how sound and music comes through your vehicle’s speakers, enabling your drive to have clear sound when you want it.

·         Turbo Engine - The 2.0 liter 4-cylinder turbocharged engine is designed to help you achieve the perfect combination of power and efficiency. The engine delivers excellent performance that will not disappoint with up to 250 horsepower.

·         Advanced Transmissions - There are two excellent transmissions available in the Sportback. The FWD model has a 9-speed Automatic Transmission and the AWD has an 8-speed Automatic Transmission. Each option allows for a unique riding experience.

·         Built-in Wi-Fi - The option to have access to all of your electronic devices through Wi-Fi is available with the OnStar 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot. You can connect up to 7 devices to the hotspot at any time. Wi-Fi access is a great way to keep your passengers entertained and happy during road trips.

·         The Look - The all-new Buick Regal Sportback has a sophisticated exterior design. The new design is elegant and bold with chrome accents, dual-exhaust chrome tailpipes, and dynamic sculptural lines.

With 2017 flying by, you will be looking forward to 2018 for when these highly anticipated and unique Buick Regal vehicles enter Liberty Buick GMC’s lot. Give Liberty a call today at (866) 442-0871 to learn more about each model and find out their arrival dates.

Ready For Adventure? Take a Spin in Liberty Buick GMC’s 2017 GMC Yukon!

There is a standard for what makes a vehicle good for adventure. Whether you plan on thrashing through unpaved trails or winding your way through the mountainside, you are sure to want a vehicle with a high level of performance, comfort, features, safety, and fuel economy. At Liberty Buick GMC, we believe that we have the perfect car for your next adventure – and at an unbeatable price! Come check out the all-new 2017 GMC Yukon.

We love the 2017 GMC Yukon! It adds a bit of luxury but at the same time a rugged toughness to every morning commute into Charlotte and every vacation experience. You can drive it anywhere – no matter how many passengers or how of long of a trip you take, you are guaranteed a pleasant experience behind the wheel. Just wait until you see how well it handles. There’s nothing like its roomy interior, the seemingly endless array of features, the high safety levels, and excellent fuel economy. Here is a breakdown of each:

Performance 

Under the hood of both the Standard and XL models of the 2017 GMC Yukon is a 5.3-liter, V-8 engine that offers 355 horsepower and 383 pounds-feet of torque. This is a ton of power to have in a base model. In fact, power of this level is usually reserved for the higher-end models of many other SUVs. To take it a step further, the Yukon Denali model provides even more power: 6.2-liter, V-8 engine with 420 horsepower and 460 pounds-feet of torque!

In the 2017 GMC Yukon, there are two impressive pieces of technology that make this a high preforming SUV. First is the direct injection. This allows fuel to be injected without hindrance, which makes for a seamlessly smooth ride. You will notice that when you hit the gas in the GMC Yukon, that there is no hesitation or stutter. It doesn’t jerk you around or take a minute to get moving. The reaction is immediate and smooth. The second piece of technology that aids in performance is what’s called cylinder deactivation. This saves fuel and creates a better driving experience. Whenever you find yourself in low-load situations, or if you are driving at low speeds, this advancement will actually shut down half of the cylinders so you are not incorporating power you don’t really need. The transition to shutting down these cylinders is seamless (you won’t even notice it happening), and it makes your drive quieter and softer because your rpms won’t be running out of control. The best way to put it is that the GMC Yukon’s performance is made to handle a variety of different driving situations, making it fit for any adventure you can dream up.

Comfort  

Due to the slick performance technologies, as well as specialized exterior door seals, the interior of the 2017 GMC Yukon is incredibly quiet. So quiet, in fact, that you can hold conversations at normal volume and never have to worry about mechanical vibrations or outside disturbances interfering.

Inside there are soft-touch materials placed throughout its rather large dash and armrests. The seats themselves are wide and cushioned to the max. There is plenty of room to stretch and relax from any seat within, which does well to keep passengers from fighting over the “good” spot. Unlike other SUVs, even previous Yukon models, the second and third rows feel just as impressive as the front seats. To make things convenient, the new GMC Yukon’s second and third rows easily fold down at the press of a button – so you don’t have to stress about the laborious task of reconfiguring the interior so you can haul a large piece of furniture. Even without folding seats down, there is plenty of storage space. These factors do well to make your journeys, not only memorable, but relaxing and peaceful as well.

Features 

The 2017 GMC Yukon is a true family SUV. That being said, it is fit and ready for more rugged adventures as well. What’s great about the new Yukon is that you can decide which model is best for you.

There is a more family-friendly model in the SLE. This comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, a backup camera, an 8-inch infotainment system equipped with Apple CarPlay, a Bose audio system, automatic climate control with separate rear controls, and tinted windows. It also comes standard with cloth seats, but you can always upgrade if leather is preferred. If you need more features for you and your family to choose from, there are plenty more add-ons to consider. You can always opt for a power liftgate, automatic dimming mirrors, and navigation, just to name a few.

If you desire something a bit more advanced with a little more luxury, there is the SLT model. This comes standard with everything in the SLE, plus heated seats in the two front rows, ventilated front seats in the very front, and leather upholstery. Also included are power-folding second and third rows, a proximity key, and a heated steering wheel. You can also add a rear-seat entertainment system, navigation, and a sunroof for little cost.

There are many more upgrades and add-ons to consider, but it’s best to try them out in person. When you come to test drive the new Yukon at Liberty Buick GMC, not only will you be able to see everything in action, you will also find each Yukon model at an incredibly low price!

Safety

Federal regulators report that the 2017 GMC Yukon earns the top score of five stars for frontal and side impacts. It also scores a three out of five for its rollover rating, which is a great score for such a tall vehicle. Combined, the new GMC Yukon earns a four-star rating, something the GMC family is very proud to boast.

Here is just a quick list of a few of the issued safety features:

·         Rearview Camera.

·         Six Airbags. Plus a front center airbag for models with front bucket seats.

·         Head-Up Display. This feature relays important information to the driver by displaying messages in direct line of sight so the driver does not have to turn and look away from the road.

·         Vibrating Driver’s Seat. This makes the driver aware of potential safety hazards happening around the vehicle.

·         Lane Departure Warning.

·         Automatic Emergency Braking.

·         Adaptive Cruise Control.

Depending on the model of Yukon you choose, some of these safety features come standard and others can be added on, which adds to the new Yukon’s sense of adaptability.  

Fuel Economy

Even though it operates from a powerful V-8 engine, and despite the fact that just a few years ago the Yukon was rated poor in terms of fuel economy, the 2017 GMC Yukon is surprisingly fuel-efficient.

Both the direct injection and cylinder deactivation help to save on gas, and if you opt for rear-wheel drive you can get up to 16mpg city and 23mpg highway (19mpg combined). For such a large and powerful machine, 19 combined is not bad at all. If you go all-in, the Denali offers 15 in the city and 22 highway, which is hardly different than the standard model. Sure, a big engine in a big SUV will use extra in gas, but the 2017 GMC Yukon proves it doesn’t have to drain your wallet. Little shortcuts, such as the type of injection used and the utilization of deactivation of unused cylinders helps greatly in GMC’s endeavor to keep trips to the gas station as infrequent as possible.

No matter what your idea of adventure is, the 2017 GMC Yukon has you covered. Its smooth and quiet ride, paired with expert comfort, performance, and safety set you and your passengers up for great fun. Come to Liberty Buick GMC today and find your Yukon at the best possible price!
