Buick China, Featured | Ash | November 15, 2010 at 10:38 pm

The handsome new Buick GL8 is set to launch later this month but earlier today we got to have a look at a new set of pictures of the forthcoming people carrier thanks to some official pictures from GM as a follow up to pictures that were posted on China Car Times last week

The GL8 is a China only model that is based on the Business Concept MPV from Shanghai 2009 Auto Show. The new GL8 will be sporting some fancy features on the inside including a 10.2 screen for rear passengers, a stop/start button, and also a 220v electrical outlet that can be used by the rear passengers for charging laptops, as the GL8 is largely used by business users rather than family use. The GL8 will also get a new keyfob that will allow for remote opening of the GL8′s side doors.

On the engine front, a 2.4 four cylinder and a 3.0 V6 direct injection engine are being made available. Pricing has yet to be announced but it is likely to be 250,000rmb and rising.
