The use of chrome grille on the body of the 2012 Regal is one of its most striking features right off the bat. However, it still exhibits that same style inspired by the GS and Gran Sport models of the past. The 19-inch alloy wheels will also come with spare tires and all season tires to ensure that this vehicle can handle wear and tear. Meanwhile, the new body dimension for this model currently measures at 73.1 inches in width, 190.2 inches in length, and about 107.8 inches for its wheelbase. There are also a few more helpful features included in the vehicle such as variable intermittent wipers, power glass sunroof, and a rear defogger.
The Buick Regal 2012, as expected, is a high performance vehicle because of its 455 cubic inch V8 engine. It is therefore comparable in terms of power with that of the old school models. But nonetheless, you will be pleased with the default engine option, which is a 2.0-liter I-4 engine. The previous engine option of seven-and-a-half liter was already phased out by the manufacturers. The new engine that is available for the 2012 Regal is turbocharged; hence it has the ability to produce a maximum of 255 horsepower that is able to accelerate to as much as 60 mph within approximately 7seconds.
The Buick Regal 2012 engine takes its cues from the 2.0-liter turbocharged Ecotec inline four engines that combine variable valve timing and direct injection for a more efficient driving experience. The 3-inch exhaust system is also available for this engine to reduce the amount of back pressure exerted while driving. If you want more driving power, then there is no need to worry since this model can deliver just that with up to 295 lb-ft torque to ensure optimum acceleration capacity. It is no wonder why this sedan is being dubbed as one of the most powerful of its kind.
Consumers will also be pleased with the improved handling system in the 2012 Buick Regal. Its use of four-wheel independent suspension along with an electronically adjustable Interactive Drive Control system delivers more efficiency when driving, regardless of the surface or driving condition. Other notable features that contribute to better handling include the highly responsive steering wheel, tight suspension, and dynamic driving technology.
