The Buick Regal, you may have forgotten, is on sale in the United States as a handsome five-door hatchback or wagon. Now there’s a luxury Avenir trim that fixes something I think even Buick knew was wrong with the car: the seats.
I couldn’t even peel out of the garage in Manhattan before someone had stopped me. “Is that a Buick?” they shouted. “Yep! A Buick Regal.” Admiring the hatchback’s sleek frame, my new friend went on: “I remember when a Buick was something my grandma drove.”
The 2018 Buick Regal TourX is the long-roofed wagon version of the Regal sedan, which makes it the first Buick wagon since the ’96 Roadmaster. You can’t order it with wood paneling, but the TourX is a damn decent comeback of the classic American family car.
There aren’t terribly many wagons on the current market to choose from, but thankfully, there’s this one from Buick: The 2018 Regal TourX. What do you want to know about it?
Wrench on cars long enough, and you’ll learn not only the “right way” and the “wrong way” to get a job done, but also a path in the middle—one that means getting the car back on the road, even if the fix isn’t exactly pretty. I took that middle path yesterday after my friend showed me her car’s rusted-out radiator…
I think it’s safe to say that the modern Buicks don’t typically elicit a lot of excitement from your average enthusiast, but that might be about to change.. With the introduction of the all-new Regal Sportback and wagon, Buick is hoping to shed its AARP image and get some younger folks behind the wheel.
The last time Buick launched a Regal GS, the brand wowed us all by offering a six-speed manual transmission. Now, for 2018, that option is gone, but there’s more power, more gears, a design that doesn’t look like a fancied-up Malibu, and most importantly a hatchback.
It’s been hit after hit for the new Buick Regal. Not only did General Motors get it to look decent and throw in a hatchback, they even managed to get it to us in wagon form. Well, close enough, at least, with the faux-crossover TourX. Now we’ve got what’s probably a preview of the new Regal GS, and yeah, it’s still…
The 2017 Buick Regal TourX gives us some hope for the future of wagons, and today it brings even more good news. Buick says the car will come standard with a 250 horsepower turbo motor, all-wheel-drive, and a starting price that seriously undercuts other luxury wagons.Â
The recently introduced 2018 Buick Regal Sportback and TourX (wagon) are lovely Buick machines, and it didn’t take long for word to slip of a possible continuation of the Regal GS model. The question then became how far GM would take it, and some have answered “335 horsepower Camaro V6!” and that answer is probably…
The 2017 Buick Regal will actually be sold as either a hatchback sedan or as a wagon. GM was serious. It’s beautiful. It’s gorgeous. It has optional all-wheel-drive. It is the blessed Buick of the long-forgotten myths and legends, here to remind us it is not a Buick.
The next generation Buick Regal is shaping up to be one sleek luxury car from General Motors’ entry-luxury brand. Now turns out the American Regal might not be a sedan at all, but rather only offered in Sportback or wagon variants. Hooray for superior body styles!
Word has it Buick is about to take an earnest pass at rebuilding its brand with an all-new Regal sedan set to bow in the near future. Everyone seems to think it will be a version of the newly revealed Vauxhall Insignia Grand Sport, and I can’t think of a better way to make Buick awesome again.
This, dear reader, is a 2018 Opel Insignia Sports Tourer. If you live in America there’s a good chance you don’t care what a new Opel wagon looks like because you assume you can’t buy one anyway. But you might be able to, soon! Because word on the street is this thing is the next Buick Regal wagon.
Right now there are some rumors floating around about a possible Buick Regal wagon for 2018. I know we all love wagons here and want more of them, but I wouldn’t get too worked up just yet.
Following the rumor that Buick may bring a wagon variant of the next-generation Regal to the U.S. and China earlier this year, a new trademark filing suggests the company may be serious with its intentions, and even have a cool new name for a sleek Sport Wagon.
The Buick Regal is an Opel trying to revamp the Buick image by competing with true sports sedans. It doesn’t quite hit the mark, but it does offer tons of standard features on the cheap. What do you need to know before you buy a Regal? Don’t worry, we’ll tell you everything right here in our Buyer’s Guide.

We're about to see a lot more Opel — kinda — in the U.S. and a lot less Opel in China. After years of unimpressive sales, GM is pulling Opel out of China. On the flip, GM will rebadge two more Opel products in the U.S. for Buicks — one of which is most likely the Adam we've been curious about.
The Opel/Vauxhall Insignia VXR SuperSport is a 325 horsepower wagon with a top speed of 170 mph. Would you buy that as a sporty Buick Regal if you could?
