Buick has been around since 1899, creating affordable yet luxurious vehicles. In the beginning, Buick made everything from family vehicles to speedy sports cars, and they did so in a luxurious fashion. The good news is that more recent Buick models are crossover and SUV-centered, so you've got plenty of options if you're looking for a family vehicle or something for traveling. If you want something lavish but don't have the cash to spend on a brand-new model, purchasing a used or CPO Buick is a great option to consider. At Crossroads Chevrolet GMC, you can find an excellent selection of used Buicks out of all the used Buick dealers in MS.
Buick has over 120 years of experience in the automotive world. David Dunbar Buick, who originally worked as a plumber, started the company from the comfort of his own backyard. There, he built the first Buick car in his barn. Thanks to this discovery and further innovation, Buick was credited with developing the first valve-in-head engine, which is the basic design used by virtually all modern vehicles. Buick's main goal was to heighten vehicle performance, focusing mostly on race cars. In fact, Buick cars have even won NASCAR championships, and Buick engines have been used for Indy cars. The power and reliability of Buick engineering has always been a key element that has set Buick vehicles apart from the competition.
While performance and speed were the main focus of Buick's for a while, as time went on, Buick started to transfer its attention to more convenient and practical vehicles. Buick was even the first brand to use turn signals, inventing the concept and was the only brand that offered turn signal indicators for several years. This shift towards luxury happened as owning a vehicle became less about power and competition and more about safety and commuting. In 2004, Buick released its first large SUV, the Buick Rainier. This was followed by the Enclave in 2008, the Envision in 2011, and the Encore in 2012. These vehicles have improved over time, with major aesthetic upgrades and better fuel economy. Now, Buick focuses mostly on developing modern, safe, and luxurious vehicles.
Let's take a quick look at Buick's more recent models and their differences. The smallest and most affordable option in the more modern lineup is the Buick Encore. Many Encore models can be found with a 1.4L engine, though other options have been available, and due to its small size and nimble engine, this model does quite well at the pump. But despite its size, it can still carry up to five passengers in comfort. The best part is that even though it's smaller, the Encore still comes with an all-wheel drive option. Buicks next available model is the Encore GX.
The Encore GX, like the Encore, is a subcompact SUV but is just a little bit bigger than its small sibling. This model has only been around a few short years but has made quite an impact with its two available engine options and stylish design. Like the Encore, this small subcompact SUV gets great fuel economy ratings and is comfortable for five passengers plus all their luggage.
Next up, we've got the Envision, Buicks compact crossover SUV. This model is larger but also seats up to five passengers, and it comes in multiple trims. If you really feel like living it up and offering your kids the most entertaining travel experience, Buick's higher trim levels are ideal. For the utmost in luxury but at a great price, consider an Avenir Buick model. The Envision can be found under the Avenir name. This means that you will get the latest luxury features for the model year you pick. You can find Avenir models with premium Bose sound systems, HD cameras, wireless charging, and so much more.
Last but definitely not least, in the modern Buick lineup, we've got the Buick Enclave, which is the largest SUV option. This model seats up to seven people, has three rows of seats, and offers plenty of space for cargo and passengers alike. This is the only Buick offering to have a significant towing capacity (topping off at 5,000 lbs for models built in the last few years). If strength and towing capacity are important to you, then the Enclave is the Buick for you. While this model might be able to get its wheels a little dirty, it can still be found in the Avenir Buick line, meaning you will get plenty of incredible luxury features. A head-up display, panoramic moon roof, adaptive cruise control, and more can all be found in an Enclave Avenir.
