Plutôt sur la même de montage que la Malibu aux States.

It is one of three new cars, including a revamped Chevrolet Camaro, GM promises to build in Oshawa by 2013 if it wins government support. GM says one of the two other fuel-efficient models will have a hybrid variant also built in Oshawa.

General Motors Co. said its all-new, 2011 Buick Regal sedan will be built in Oshawa, Ontario.


Production will begin in the first quarter of 2011, GM said in a statement today.

The Regal, based on the 2009 Opel Insignia, will join the Chevrolet Impala sedan and Chevrolet Camaro in Oshawa. The Insignia was voted 2009 “European Car of the Year” a year ago by automotive journalists.

GM said Oshawa has been running on overtime since June to keep up with demand for the Camaro. Production of the Camaro convertible also is set to begin in the first quarter of 2011.

“The new Regal gives Buick a modern performance sedan, and its production here in Oshawa is terrific news for our employees, the Canadian Auto Workers, dealers and suppliers,” Arturo Elias, president of General Motors of Canada, said in the statement.

Pour l'avoir vu de mes propres yeux...c'est vrai!

Buick in China

General Motors, selling vehicles under the Buick, Chevrolet, Opel, Saab and Cadillac names, is the best-selling foreign automaker in China. Selling a combined 876,000 vehicles in 2006, GM overtook Volkswagen the year before, although that company still holds the claim on best selling brand.[24][25] Making up nearly 35% of those sales, China is Buick's largest market, selling more there than even the United States.[26] In 2007, General Motors sold over 330,000 Buicks in China, more than twice what they sold in the United States.[27]

Since 1999, a Chinese version of the Buick Century/Regal has been produced and sold in China under Shanghai GM and has proven to be popular among upscale, professional families, establishing Buick as one of the most popular vehicle brands in China. In addition, Buick of China also sells the compact Excelle (based on the Daewoo Lacetti/Nubira), a five-door hatchback version called the HRV, and a modified version of the first generation Pontiac Montana minivan named the GL8. Chinese market Buicks are equipped with smaller engines than the same nameplate in the American market; in 2008 General Motors began importing these engines from China for use in the American Chevrolet Equinox and Pontiac Torrent.[28]

In June 2005, Buick announced that it would market the Australian Holden Statesman in China as the Buick Royaum. Buick previously marketed the subcompact Sail, sourced from GM's Asian operations and based on the Opel Corsa B, until 2005. Since then, Shanghai GM has replaced it with the Chevrolet Sail (a rebadged Opel Corsa). Buick has stated that it expects China to become its second largest market.

For the 2006 model year, Buick debuted the Chinese version of the LaCrosse sedan. The only differences are exterior design, different engine choices, and a facelifted interior. It is positioned above the Regal but below the Royaum.

In April 2007, Shanghai-GM announced the Buick Park Avenue, for the Chinese market only. The vehicle is based on the Holden Statesman, with engines manufactured in Australia.

Buick has sold over two million vehicles in China. The first million took eight years, the second came in at only three years.
