On Monday morning, Buick whisked the covers off the refreshed 2014 LaCrosse sedan with new interior and exterior design cues as well as tech features, which we will see in the flesh at theNew York Auto Show this week before it goes on sale in North America in the summer.The exterior makeover begins at the front end with a larger and more prominent waterfall grille, new LED-equipped headlamps and a re-sculpted bumper, and continues with a fresh assortment of alloy wheel designs, plus revised LED wraparound tail lamps connected by a new "monobrow-style" chrome strip, and different exhaust finishers at the back.
Moving on inside, Buick's designers afforded the 2014 model a brand new instrument panel and a redesigned center console that does away with much of the clutter found in the outgoing 2013 LaCrosse.
There are also new seats, improved quality materials and an all-new, optionally available Ultra Luxury Interior Package that adorns the LaCrosse's interior with semi-aniline leather seats and trim, wood décor and synthetic suede on the headliner and door pillars.
On the technology front, the 2014 model gains Buick’s next-generation IntelliLink infotainment system with swipe-and-drag controls similar to Cadillac's CUE system, and new radar- and camera-based safety features, including Side Blind Zone Alert, Lane Change Alert, Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Automatic Collision Preparation.
For the 2014MY, the LaCrosse is offered in front- and all-wheel-drive models with two gasoline powertrains: a 2.4-liter engine with eAssist or a 3.6-liter direct-injected V6, both linked to a six-speed automatic transmission.
