GM

is

killing off

the

Buick LaCrosse

in the U.S. after the 2019 model year, but elsewhere it lives on. Hidden behind all the Geneva news this week, GM quietly took the wraps off a 2020

LaCrosse

facelift for China. It only makes sense to keep selling the big

Buick

in the popular Chinese market (now Buick’s largest), but we’re a tad jealous of what we can’t have stateside. The changes Buick has implemented make the

LaCrosse

into a far more handsome option.

Both the front and rear get massaged here. A new horizontal patterned grille, slimmer headlights with a neat LED design, plus new lower bumper surround all work together to provide a more upscale look. The view out back is an even larger departure from the old and somewhat awkward rear end on the 2019 LaCrosse. Smaller, flowing taillights mesh well with the chrome strip on the trunk lid, then dual exhaust outlets offer a sporty flair to the squat rear end. The Buick badge looks cohesive with the look as a whole now, instead of just chilling out alone on the expansive trunk lid.

An updated powertrain package goes along with the new looks, too. GM is snagging its new 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder LSY engine it uses in the

Cadillac XT4

for duty here. It makes 237 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, and is mated to GM’s nine-speed automatic transmission. For now, China will be the market to see this generation of LaCrosse — GM also plans to exclusively produce it in its Shanghai facility.
