New York International Auto Show is coming, General Motors has released official pictures and information about the 2014 Buick LaCrosse facelift on its website first. New car will focus on improvements to upgrade the exterior and interior, the car is expected to be officially on sale in the summer.
Appearance, through a series of changes, Buick LaCrosse facelift brought out a whole new atmosphere. The facelifted model has new bumpers, a revised grille and LED-infused headlights. The changes are less noticeable out back but include additional chrome trim and restyled taillights.
The interior adds a new center stack console, bringing this European Buick — it began life as an Opel Insignia — in line with other Buicks with the next-generation IntelliLink infotainment system, which centers around an 8-inch touch screen. The system also promises to be easier to use, as Buick cut back the number of buttons on the center stack from 17 to just seven.
