Buick Regal origins

The Buick Regal is a mid-size car introduced by General Motors for the 1973 model year. North American production ended in 2004, but the model continued in China. For the 2011 model year, Buick re-introduced the Regal to the North American market, positioned as an upscale sport sedan.
For many historical model years, the Regal shared bodies and powertrains with the similar Buick Century.

In November 2009, in Los Angeles, GM revealed the model to the North American market, with a launch date of 2nd quarter 2010.

In North America, the new Regal will slot just below the LaCrosse, and compete with upscale sedans such as the Acura TSX and Volvo S60. It will debut with just one engine, the 2.4L Ecotec I4 rated at 182 hp. A turbocharged 2.0L Ecotec I4 rated at an estimated 220 hp will be available later in 2010.
