Buick LaCrosse Specs

If it’s a little extra burst of power you’re looking for, the 2018 Buick LaCrosse manages to outpace many other sedans in its class.

With a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine under the hood, the LaCrosse can produce as much as 194 HP and 187 lb-ft of torque.

However, even more so than power, the LaCrosse aims for efficiency. That’s why its engine comes with eAssist light electrification technology.

This next-generation technology combines the gasoline engine with a compact electric motor generator and 24-cell lithium-ion battery. This allows for seamless shifts and overall fuel conservation.

Combine this engine tech with the standard Stop/Start mode found in the LaCrosse, which autonomously turns the engine on and off during idling periods, and the sedan can maintain a EPA-estimated 35 MPG highway and 25 MPG city.
