The Buick LaCrosse has been in production since and became available to customers a year later. Production of the LaCrosse for the American market was halted in with General Motors concentrating on the Chinese region. This car was intended as a replacement for the Regal and Century ranges by Buick and became its flagship model. First-generation models also gained a hybrid option but only for Chinese customers, American buyers would have to wait for the second generation to have that available.
The eAssist package added an electric motor capable of adding an additional 15 horsepower to the output of the engine leading to a few extra miles per gallon in the tank. When the third generation hit the roads in customers found that the platform it was built on is the same as the Chevrolet Impala. It was two years later after the release of the 3rd generation that the model was discontinued in the USA due to company-wide restructuring.
This was most likely due to the declining sales in the North American territory of the Buick LaCrosse which sold 1 for every 5 sold in China.
