It's official - the Buick Regal with eAssist is coming to Gurley Leep GM in Mishawaka.

How much will this advanced vehicle cost? The fuel efficient Regal has been announced with an affordable starting price of $35,310. That puts it on par with competition from foreign auto makers, who are touting hybrid and fuel-sipping (even electric) cars on American soil.

With a city mileage rating of 19, and 27 highway, the next generation Regal boasts a front wheel drive powertrain that includes a 2.0-liter turbocharged I4 engine. This motor can produce 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque when matted to either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission.With all that power, Buick estimates the run to 60 mph will take 6.7 seconds.

The car sits on 20-inch tires that hug every corner thanks to the terrific suspension available on this particular Buick. The all new Regal is a testament to how powerful and dedicated these cars can be; both past, present and (if Buick has its way) far into the future.

Popular Mechanics believes that: "The Regal GS is more than just the highest-performing Buick. It's a look at the future of performance cars."¹ We couldn't agree more.
