2018 Buick Regal TourX - Redline: Review

[@JoJoJoker]

The TourX is an amazing family vehicle. Many people didn’t know they wanted one until after GM stopped making them. That’s why they should have marketed the thing.

[@Eeaotc02]

Automakers, wagons have their advantages. Bring more wagons!

[@ramenraccoon159]

Double JJ so funny seeing Americans going crazy about wagons 😂

[@Eeaotc02]

Victor Ibarbo They look better than crossovers.

[@ramenraccoon159]

Double JJ Sure they do! I hate SUVs and crossovers but you see wagons everywhere in Europe and it’s just funny seeing Americans being excited about a new wagon.

[@Eeaotc02]

Victor Ibarbo Yeah because wagons got a bad rep and nobody wanted to be dead set in a wagon. Same way with minivans. Now car enthusiasts or some people want something different than your neighbor's SUV/crossover.

[@ramenraccoon159]

Double JJ I really don’t get that. I think wagons are more aesthetically pleasing than SUVs and crossovers and they’re also more of a enthusiast car. SUVs and crossovers are for moms who want to bring their children to their football matches and for people who can’t drive.

[@ahastar1141]

You know as a 27 year old I actually like this car. Love the long low sleek look and it actually looks like a nice vehicle and stands out a bit

[@gilvietor1918]

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

I would like to agree with you, but this is only a test by Buick. If it sells, they will make more of them. If it doesn't, it will fade away again. They did this with the Encore and it sold like hotcakes - so now Chevy has one as well with the Trax.

[@colechapman6976]

GM does this weird thing where they make great cars, but then never market it and then wonder why it fails. I think if they actually had the confidence to carry this car out, then it would've been really something special. This vehicle looks so much better than all the other Buicks on the road and made the brand, for a split second, seem interesting and cool

[@swanblake]

Damn I love him. I really appreciate his honest assessment on the cheaper looking interior. This is why you are one of the best. Not just PR speak for the company. Thank you!

There’s a GS version of this available in Europe. It’s called the Opel Insignia GSi Sports Tourer (260hp 4 cylinder, AWD, 8-speed automatic). Looks really cool!

[@shethjones4494]

TheVP they aren't going to sell a lot of these so we shouldn't expect a whole lot of powertrain options in the states. Similar things happened when gm imported Holden vehicles

[@detroitghost7916]

Bought it. Love it. All kinds of positive comments and the little twin turbo has plenty of torque. Handles very well and the all wheel drive is effective. Car guys do love wagons... especially interesting ones.. Way back when I was a kid (so old) I remember a friends' Dad had a new Chevy wagon with a dual quad 409 and a four speed (had to be a COPO) and I thought it was the hippest vehicle on the face of the earth... Later owned two Allroad Audi cars (one was the first six speed in the US) . This wagon, right now, is much better than I had hoped for....

[@wolfshanze5980]

Maybe if Buick ran a single commercial for this in America it would sell... I just traded-in my Dodge Magnum, which I thought was the last station wagon sold in America for a Crossover... because I thought nobody made modern Station Wagons... this car will fail, not because it's a bad car or nobody wants station wagons, it will fail because nobody even knows it exists... worst marketing ever.

[@btbbelesky]

Mithrennon of Aegwynn gm doesn’t want this to be successful. Only reason they are here is due to the argument with opel. Doubt it will be more than a 4 year deal In the states. Sadly :(

Funny, was in Sedona the past few days and saw a grey TourX on Sunday in the canyon (from Flagstaff) and a white one as I was departing Starbucks yesterday and commented "strange to see two of those already." Had 3 outbacks and 3 wrx's (currently one of each), so this interests me. Glad to see another wagon...maybe it can push Subaru to get competitive with more power on the 4cy...175hp is a joke. Am used to the lag you showed with my 6cyl/3.6 Great review...and appreciated.

This is a good review, I learned a lot. Not sure why he didn’t mention that this car is really just an Opel. My understanding is that this car was made in Germany by Opel and Buick more or less just rebadged it.

[@Dialysisforever]

When a car does not have a sport mode but does have an option to shift manually on the shifter then try putting the shifter into the manual shift mode before doing the acceleration run. It should hold the shifts longer.

[@Ezrabastian]

Thanks for doing a great job! Your reviews are just awesome.

[@palebeachbum]

I'm really happy to see this new wagon. Wagons make a lot more sense for people and cargo hauling than a CUV. This particular wagon looks REALLY good. My only gripe is that they'll only give the American market a Subaru Outback wannabe version, with AWD and black exterior cladding. In Europe they sell this as a straight up FWD wagon. I hope they decide to bring that version to the American market. I'd be VERY interested in buying one if they do.

[@soundersaz550]

Only 1,000lb towing capacity is balls. Straight balls, and that's not a good thing. All I want, as a dad with two kids, is a bad ass WAGON that can tow at least 3500 lbs. I want to tow a caravan like they do in the UK, and 1000lb towing capacity ain't gonna cut it.

[@97I30T]

SoundersAZ The Volvo V90 Cross Country is rated to tow 3500 lbs.

[@normt5463]

It is weak but it is 4,300 lbs to begin with. I guess I'll be keeping my 3,900 2004 Saab Sportcombi.

[@97I30T]

Norm T I think the issue with wagons is that manufacturers know that most people do not tow with them so they do not optimize them for towing.

[@normt5463]

KentB27 Yeah, but at least match Outback 2.5 1,500 lbs

[@joshua.harazin]

The worst part is, this exact vehicle in the UK is rated to tow 3400 lbs. They cripple the limit stateside so that customers who want to tow are stuck buying more expensive SUVs and crossovers. If they tried doing that in Europe, customers would just buy a wagon from another manufacturer. Need evidence that automakers do this in the US? Go check the tow ratings for the Ford Crown Victoria from the early 90s to the mid-2000s. The car itself went through very few changes, yet the tow rating drops right around the same time the Ford Explorer came out.

I get the impression with this last Opel from Germany that GM is experimenting again to see what sells - a hatchback sedan and a wagon. They experimented a few years back with the small SUV, the Encore, and it was so successful they made a Chevy version called the Trax. If this succeeds we will be seeing the same in a Chevy in a few years. If it fails, then back to sedans and SUVs only. 0-60 mph tested is 6.9 seconds, so it is pretty fast.

I'm glad they kept it lower. Its a good balance between cross-country models (crossovers with a short roof) and a standard wagon/sedan. I've taken a rwd sedan far enough off-road to know that you don't need a cross-country anything to go camping.

Great review. I think the wagon looks great. The side view of the grey wagon shows great lines. My first impression of the white wagon was that the cladding was ugly. You said it was good looking so maybe it is a bad camera angle. Anyway, the grey being less of a contrast looks better with the cladding. If I could afford one I would test drive.

Another thing missing from this review, I would've liked to have seen the sunroof shade work, like close and open it.

[@sansss2027]

It's a good thing they offer a base model without leather. Not everyone wants leather and it can cost down quite a bit. Volvo would have a bigger advantage with their wagon line if they offered non leather trim packages. I like most wagons in general, we could definitely use more of them.

Drives like a big hot hatch - I actually want to get in & take it for a drive to nowhere unlike the typical “practical” car. Stands waayyyy out from all the CUVs people default to when they need a family car. Nice to not see a clone of myself every 10 minutes! So yeah…rare, fun to drive, practical, German, tons of features. Upsides are it gets better gas mileage and the pano sunroof opens unlike the Jag’s. One day though…a SportBrake will be in my garage.

I drive a 2015 Volvo XC70 T6 (real T6 not the 4 cylinder T6) and love it. It has 72 cu ft space with 2nd row seats folded down and as you said it drives like a car but has SUV space. Nice review but would have liked to see cargo area with rear seats down, the whole point of a wagon for cargo space. Does this come in a 6 cylinder or only 4? I hate 4 cylinder cars. This vehicle is nice looking, reminds me of the previous gen Audi Allroad. Interior is decent as well.

[@calvinzhao9215]

Never consider buying a Buick until seeing this one 😍

[@ColoradoSpringsDashcam]

Honey they didn’t fly you to Sedona they flew you to Phoenix. ;) Loved the review! Arizona is a gorgeous state!

[@ggmu8549]

Flew me daddy 🙏

# GGMU ????

[@A_guan]

Mazda should bring the mazda 6 wagon to the US now

[@the66volks]

Great review! I'm so glad you can finely buy a new GM wagon I'll defiantly be buying one I own several classic GM wagons myself an I just love them! Hopefully in the future they will offer a Chevy version as well

[@americannotamericant1773]

I kinda want one of these now

[@Agent77X]

Hope Buick has a regular fender cladding well that matches the body paint!

[@markwatney8641]

Does it have rear facing jump seats in the back ?

[@midnight4109]

I'm not sure why these wagons aren't more popular. Less opulent than the Audi but comfy supportive leather seats and everything very well thought out, although mine is high end with almost every option. Best of all, there are great deals out there.

[@shopwithaaron]

Like the two tone interior...But the darker top half is angled toward the driver (like my Optima) but the lighter colored lower portion seems tacked on....doesn't feel well integrated (like my Optima) Great review as always! Thx.

[@Extrememdp]

What type material is the black plastic over the wheel wells? Hard cheap material? rubbery plastic? Durable feeling? Cheap feeling??

[@briannavarrete49]

Cool wagon, but I hate that plastic cladding

[@MrNemo721]

Brian Rosado It wont sell in America if it didn't have that. Same reason why Audi does an Allroad version instead of an Avant

[@daniellee7178]

TheVP it's a sad reality but at least you can get the Volvo v60 and v90 without the cladding.

[@wadewuagneux7985]

Brian Rosado I wish you could get this wagon without the ugly cladding as well.

[@BentonHart]

I saw one without cladding testing here in CO over the summer. It looked great, but still had the Opel badges on it. I'm not getting my hopes up about it

[@nickb3671]

I hope maybe an GS or new Avenir trim will come out without he cladding too

[@BennyT_3434]

If the wagon came in GS trim with the V6 I'd probably own one already....so maybe I should be thanking Buick for keeping me car-payment free right now!

[@DesuVR]

Wow, I haven't seen an American wagon since the Dodge Magnum.

[@rowboyto156]

Moar Desu there was a cts-v wagon too

[@NoshNosher]

well, its basically a german car. it's an opel insignia.

[@rightlanehog3151]

Yes, it's a German Opel that became a French Peugeot .

[@european1114]

Moar Desu German car!!!!!

[@iteddo6030]

It’s a rebadged Opel, back when GM owned Opel/Vauxhall

[@limpunsing224]

Good looking station wagon appealing overall package

[@suzigti92]

I'm loving the new Buicks. This one is a favorite! But that 4cyl turbo kills it for me. This wagon needs an upgraded powertrain.

[@santiagoluna3599]

suzigti92 if it were from Cadillac it would have a TTV6, Buick tried with this but it’s still not exciting

[@mattgmail5349]

Is that the Opel Insignia?

[@edipires15]

matt gmail yes it is

[@borregoimages8117]

It really is a nice car, huh? I recently shot a walk around on a 18 Essence AWD if you'd like to check it out. Im sort of in the process of converting my channel into a car review page if you'd like to subscribe. :)
