2012 Buick Regal GS – Photos and Info

The 2012 Buick Regal GS is powered by a 2.0-liter in-line 4 cylinder turbocharged engine. This delivers 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. The transmission fitted on this car is a 6-speed manual that connects the power to the front-wheel drive.

The time to 60 is 6.7 seconds, which is definitely not bad for a vehicle in this class. Although it weighs a little over 3700 lbs (quite a lot, I might add), the Buick Regal GS proves to be athletic and quick.

There are 3 passenger’s seats in the back. The buyer can only get a black interior, a characteristic that isn’t that attractive in this car.

The fuel consumption is quite disappointing, standing at 19 mpg in the city and 27 on the highway.

Apparently, this is a “driver’s car”, which means that the purchase of the Buick Regal GS requires extensive research and test-drives – the type of car that resembles Audi’s A4, or BMW’s 3-Series.
