2012 Buick Verano
The Buick Verano is a well deserving compliment to any small family. The Buick Verano packs quite a luxurious palette without a heavy price tag.
The compact sedan cabin is furnished with leather interior and chrome plating and the exterior shares the same quality and looks of higher end luxury sedans. A simple push of a button located on the rear view mirror activates the on-star navigation system that comes bundled with Buick Verano free of charge for the first six months. The Buick Verano is also preloaded with the intellilink infotainment system that allows the driver and passenger to interact and communicate with the on-board radio while having the ability to connect to your smart phone to stay in touch with your friends and family. As well as Buick has executed the interior of the cabin space, it does leave a small blemish in the odd looks of the engine-start button that camouflages with the rest of the dash control.
Although some may fall in love at first sight, I personally disliked the charcoal red paint and excessive vents located on the sides of the front hood. Nevertheless, whatever the Buick Verano lacks or falls behind in makes up for the driving experience.
The suspensions design equipped on the Buick Verano is a complex Z-link suspension that offer comparable ride quality as many German luxury sedans offer. One of the first things you’ll notice as you turn on the vehicle is the feeling of an opening symphony. The Buick Verano is definitely one of the quietest cabins you will find in the market to date and this quality is something that definitely deserves to be complemented. The power steering is precise in handling and the automatic transmission is buttery smooth.
Rated at 180 horsepower, the drive train packs a 2.4 Liter engine that offers a decent amount of power with an added bonus of good fuel economy at a combined city and highway rating averaged at 25 mpg with the ability to run on 85 octane. For those of you who wanting an extra punch at the push of the pedal, Buick will also be offering a 2.0 Liter Turbo engine as an option.
The Buick Verano is by no means a powerful sports sedan. This vehicle was specifically aimed as a luxury sedan that offers a pleasant ride with its soft roomy leather interior, quiet cabin and exceptional drive train and suspension.
The Buick Verano base model has a targeted price of $23, 700 while the highest trim with leather interior starts at $27, 200. Considering the ride quality and the interior grade of material used, the price gives you a bang for the buck for those looking for a luxury sedan.
