2012 Buick LaCrosse eAssist


It’s hard to talk about all of the good things General Motors is doing these days without referencing theChevrolet Volt – it is perhaps the most talked-about car on the scene, green or otherwise. In showing the world that highly efficient, practical cars aren’t so far out of our reach, GM is preparing to launch a slew of fuel-sipping vehicles in the near term.


We’ve already spent time with the honest-to-goodness 42-mile-per-gallon Chevrolet Cruze Eco, but the next chapter of GM’s efficiency story lies in Buick’s eAssist mild hybrid system, coming to both its LaCrosse andRegal sedans later this year.


We recently had the chance to drive the 2012 Buick LaCrosse eAssist on the roads near GM’s proving grounds in Milford, Michigan, and while some hybrid systems vastly change a car’s overall driving experience, we walked away from our time in the Buick feeling as good as we ever have in a LaCrosse. The beauty of eAssist is that it functions in an almost entirely transparent manner, and that’s a very, very good thing.

Nice commentary. last thirty times I uncovered this online internet internet site and desired to permit you be conscious that i’ve been gratified, heading by way of your site’s posts. I should undoubtedly be signing just as as a whole lot since the RSS feed and may wait around for yet another post. Cheers, Glen
