GM has recently announced the specs for their new 2010 Buick LaCrosse which is shaping up to be quite environmentally friendly.
The LaCrosse will feature GM’s 4 cyclinder 2.4l Ecotec which makes for a fuel economy of 30 mpg on the highway and around 20 mph in town. The 4 cylinder engine will be direct injected and coupled with a six-speed automatic transmission will put out around 182HP and 172 pounds of torque.
It seems GM is actually starting to get it as this car is definitely a step in the right direction for the troubled automaker.

General Motors is busy working out a potential scheme that will allow them to reinvent the 2010 Buick LaCrosse in China. Apparently, China has a large demand for luxury cars, opening opportunities that can perhaps entice an aggressive approach towards matching actual car demands for the said auto line.
Buicks in China are often used to carry company executives, hence the attention to detail in the backseat in terms of comfort and accessories. Options on the LaCrosse include a rear-window power sunshade and two seatback display screens connected to a DVD system.
Supported with the proper figures, this development can be a big break for the embattled Detroit-based car manufacturer. If all goes well, then perhaps it can look forward to better days to improve their car sales.
