2005 Buick LaCrosse CXS Wallpapers & Pictures
2005 Buick LaCrosse CXS Info & Specs BUICK RESHAPES ITS MIDSIZE LINEUP WITH 2005 LaCROSSE Buick is reshaping its passenger car lineup starting with the all-new 2005 LaCrosse - a premium midsize sedan with fresh design inside and out, a powerful new engine and new levels of comfort, quietness and responsive handling. As a replacement for the successful Regal and Century sedans, LaCrosse signals the future direction for Buick as the division renews and expands its vehicle line during the next several years. True to Buick tradition, the emphasis is on smooth power, elegant design, expertly crafted interiors and a comfortable yet controlled ride. Power choices LaCrosse is offered in three models, with two powertrains: the well-equipped CX, elegantly appointed CXL and performance-oriented CXS. The CX and CXL are powered by one of the most renowned engines in GM's lineup, the 3800 3.8L V-6, now in Series III form. This new version of the award-winning 3800 generates an estimated 200 horsepower (149 kw). New features include electronic throttle control to improve engine response and fuel efficiency while reducing complexity, as well as structural upgrades for quieter operation. Estimated fuel economy is 20 mpg city and 29 mpg highway. Standard in the CXS is the 3.6L V-6 VVT (variable valve timing), which turns out 240 horsepower (179 kw). One of a new generation of "high feature" General Motors powerplants, this premium, all-aluminum engine has dual overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder. Its fully variable intake and exhaust valve timing achieves outstanding flexibility, delivering 90 percent of the engine's peak torque where it is most useful, between 1500 rpm and 6000 rpm. Fuel economy is an estimated 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway.
