Convenience Comes Standard!

Convenience is something we all look for in a vehicle and now, Buick has taken this one step further with standard connectivity! The ability to stay connected, while exercising safety and following the rules of the road, has become a desired and sometimes costly feature in a vehicle. Well, we have exciting news to share with you, as Buick makes the announcement that all 2015 models will have standard hands-free connectivity with Apple Siri Eyes Free and text message alerts. Additionally, most 2015 models will also include a built-in Wi-Fi Hotspot, powered by OnStar with 4G LTE, a feature that will be standard next year on all 2016 models.

Using the Buick IntelliLink system, drivers are able to experience the convenience of a text message alert feature with a Bluetooth profile (M.A.P), which reads incoming texts through the vehicle’s speakers.  The Siri Eyes Free feature works with iPhone 4s or later and must operate with iOS 6 or later.  Whether you want to place a call, find directions, music, or hear and compose text messages, Siri is your go to vehicle companion for connectivity and peace of mind.

Available on the Buick LaCrosse, Verano, Regal and Encore for the 2015 model year, OnStar’s 4G LTE with built in Wi-Fi creates a mobile hub for passengers.  The hotspot is accessible whenever the vehicle is on or in accessory mode.  Owners are provided with a 3 Month/3GB data trial with the option to purchase additional data plans later.

The All New 2013 Buick Encore – Coming Soon to Queenston on the Mountain

In early 2013, Canada will be welcoming a brand new crossover, luxury SUV – the Buick Encore. The five- passenger SUV is a new addition to the small crossover segment.  The Encore offers great drivability, easy parking, and effortless manoeuvring with its compact size and high driving position. The cargo and storage space is surprising, particularly when the passenger seats are folded flat – longer items will fit easily in the hatch.

Inside the Encore is the active Quiet Tuning system, which includes a series of sound reducing items like an acoustic laminated windshield, “quiet-tuned” tires and even active noise cancelling through the crossover’s audio system.

Something to take note of is the technology in the Encore. The Intellilink system is a voice-activated, colour connected infotainment system. The large, full-colour seven-inch LCD display is located centrally on the front dash of the Encore. Intellilink connects your smartphone and allows you to access satellite and internet radio via voice activation.

Not only is the new Buick Encore bringing you technology but safety as well – with 10 air bags standard on all models. Also available are the new Forward Collision Alert and Lane Departure Warning.

Other available features include remote start, rainsense wipers, rear-view camera, memory seats and mirrors, and front and rear park assist.  

The Buick Encore will be available for sale in Canada in early 2013.
