Buick Excelle sedan caught in China - Click above for high-res image gallery
The next step in
Buick's plan for
Chinese world domination is a new small sedan based on the
Opel Astra called the
Buick Excelle. Following what's likely to be its debut for the Chinese market later this month at the
Beijing Motor Show, Buick plans to bring the compact sedan to the United States in 2011.
So, with introductions out of the way, let's take a closer look at what will be the smallest car in Buick's completely revised stable. Naturally, the expected toothy, chromed waterfall grille is present and accounted for, flanked on either side by rounded-off, rhomboid headlights. Note, too, the twin vestigial chrome portholes on each side of the mostly flat hood.
Judging from these images, the rest of the car looks much less interesting. The wheels appear small and the profile seems derivative, though not unattractive. Out back are large taillamps with extremely overstated chrome eyelash-like trim pieces. But that's just our opinion. See for yourself in our image gallery below, courtesy of
