The Buick Lacrosse has been in production since 2004. It has undergone a few design transformations that have made it a midsize, a mid/large, and a full-size sedan, depending on the year. Currently, the Buick Lacrosse is in its third generation and is Buick’s main sedan model. In 2010, the Lacosse was redesigned and became a large sedan, and again in 2017 the Buick Lacrosse saw another major redesign in which the model gained a few inches, lost a few pounds, and was refreshed with accents like a Wildcat-inspired waterfall front grille, sweeping fender design, and a full suite of new driver assist, safety, entertainment, and navigation technology. Since its introduction into the automotive market in 2004, the Buick Lacrosse has given drivers an impressive sedan that is high on performance, technology, safety, and style. For drivers searching for a used Buick Lacrosse, there are many great options available to choose from.
When Buick debuted the Lacrosse in 2004 for the 2005 sales market, it replaced the Century and the Regal in Buick’s sedan line-up. The first generation of the Lacrosse gave drivers two powertrain options and was available in three trim levels. In 2008, the LaCrosse was redesigned with features like a front-end restyling, a chrome exterior accent package that was given to every trim level, leather-wrapped, telescoping steering wheel as well as steering wheel controls for climate adjustment. Additional added features in these model years were a theft deterrent system, the ability to personalize the driver information center, and illuminated vanity mirrors. Also in 2008, the Super edition of the LaCrosse hit the market. This top-of-the-line version featured special styling touches, better suspension with Stabilitrak, and better performance from the addition of a more powerful V8 engine.
When the second generation Lacrosse hit the market in 2010, it was still praised for its sleek styling, but it received even more attention for its performance upgrades. The improved acceleration ability and overall performance that this generation offered brought more people to the Buick brand and really established the LaCrosse as a major player in the luxury car division. The newly improved handling and suspension of the Buick Lacrosse is credited to the introduction of the first-ever front suspension that was introduced. This front end suspension, known as HIPer strut was combined with LaCrosse’s Real Time Dampening system that adjusts shocks and struts to give a smoother, better handling ride.
In 2012, the Buick Lacrosse introduced a hybrid vehicle as its base model, the eAssist. This “mild hybrid” replaced the traditional 4-cylinder Lacrosse which is no longer available. The eAssist model delivered a fuel efficiency of 25 MPG city and 36 MPG highway miles.
2014 saw another restyling for the Lacrosse which featured new front and rear face designs, wheel upgrades, leather seating options, and more driver assist safety technology. In 2016, a sport touring edition of the Lacrosse was added to the sedan’s line-up.
The 2017 Lacrosse brought in the third generation of this popular Buick Sedan. For 2017, the Lacrosse featured a lighter platform base but was slightly longer than its previous model. High-strength steel and noise-reducing technology helped the Lacrosse to lose about 300 LBS from its overall weight while increasing its aerodynamics and giving it a more quiet cabin ride.
The third generation also features a stylish winged waterfall grille that was inspired by Buick’s earlier concept, the “Wildcat” vehicle. First present on the Avenir trim, this feature now graced the front fascia of all Lacrosse models of this sedan in the Buick line-up.
A few additional features that became available on the third generation Buick Lacrosse are:
The introduction of an 8-speed automatic transmission and then a 9-speed that was introduced with the 2018 Lacrosse model year.
The last major redesign of the Lacrosse thus far was in 2017. Upgrades for the 2018 model year include more horsepower, a more spacious ride with more head and legroom for passengers and drivers, as well as added technology that improves connectivity, safety, and entertainment capabilities.
