Buick has pulled the wraps off the 2027 LaCrosse, revealing a significantly updated front fascia and a completely redesigned interior that pushes the brand closer to genuine luxury territory. The reveal, published by BurlapCar, shows a cleaner, more premium aesthetic that aligns the LaCrosse with Buick’s wider global design language seen on the Enclave and Envista.
2027 Buick LaCrosse — Design Changes
Exterior
- New front grille: Wider horizontal bar design replacing the previous chrome-heavy look — cleaner and more modern
- Flush door handles: Flush-fitting handles across all trims (previously premium-only)
- Slimmer LED headlights: Signature Buick wing-shaped DRL repositioned for a wider stance appearance
- Longer wheelbase: 50 mm longer than the outgoing model, improving rear legroom
- New colours: Champagne Gold Metallic and Moonstone Silver join the palette
Interior
- 36-inch panoramic display: A single curved screen spans instrument cluster and infotainment — similar to Mercedes MBUX layout
- Quilted Nappa leather: Standard on Avenir trim; perforated leather on Essence
- Tri-zone climate control: Independent rear passenger control standard across range
- Ventilated and heated front + rear seats: Standard on Avenir; optional on Essence
- Quiet Tuning acoustic glass: Laminated side glass standard on all trims
