With everyday progress of innovations, car industry must react fast
and implement all new features to improve fuel economy, comfort, infotainment
and complete impression about the vehicles. That’s why some companies are
launching new model without big pause. So it is going to be with new Buick
Anthem. Crossover was already powerful and stylish, but now it should be
upgraded in 2017 Buick Anthem. Buyers will be surprised with new SUV, which
includes two types of engines and many stylish tweaks. That will be shown in
price, which is going to rise, but new Anthem will remain compatible with their
main rivals.
2017 Buick Anthem powertrains
As we already mentioned, new 2017 Buick Anthem will get the power
from two types of engines. Base unit is 2.5-l 4-cylinder unit with 16 valves,
which is capable to deliver 200 hp and around 190 lb-ft of torque. Engine is
mated to a 6-speed automatic gearbox with an option for manual shifting.
Same transmission
is installed with second option, and it is 2.0-l V6 drivetrain. More powerful
unit can burst 300 horses and 250 pound-feet of torque. More power has its
price and it is fuel consumption. Base models will be more economical than
units with V6 drivetrain.
Visual appearance of the 2017 Buick Anthem will be refreshed, and no
radical changes are included. First that we can notice is new grille, which
boosts appearance at the front. Except this revisit, designers are launching new
LED lights, which replace old headlamps. Under these we have fog lights, which
also implements LED lamps. Slightly modified lines on the roof and hood improve
aerodynamic, and also exterior design, as well as 17-inch alloy wheels. Tail
lights are reshaped. Interior is also better than before, with 12V socket,
navigation, display for cameras and new audio system. Safety features are also
revisited, but so far, Buick doesn’t want to share information about these
products.
2017 Buick Anthem release
date
With known information, without confirmation from company, we guess
2017 Buick Anthem could be priced near $30,000, which is margin for crossovers
of same class. Launch of this model, which suffer slight changes are expected
late in 2016.
