The 2020 Buick Regal for buyers
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2020 Buick Regal for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the 2020 Buick Regal, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Recalls and complaints
Owners filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, back over prevention and air bags; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
The figures, translated
Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo; drive: front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
At 9.1 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 27 litres of fuel. For 1,000 km, budget about $159.30 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,150 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who the Regal suits
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Space and size
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. At 510 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.
Rent it for a week first
A test week in the Regal tells you more than any review. If the Regal is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Choosing the right one
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$3,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.93 in fuel.
Talk to a person
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
Rent it for a week before you buy
