Overview

The 2015 Buick LaCrosse Hybrid Sedan fares well in the midsize sedan segment. Adding $2,090 to the price of the standard gasoline variant, the Buick LaCrosse Hybrid Sedan carries a base price of MSRP $33,635 and is offered in two trims, reaching a price of MSRP $35,725. The engine on service here is a familiar 2.4L Inline-4 engine supported by an 11-kWh electric motor pack. Mated to a continuously variable automatic transmission, it makes 182 horsepower and 172 lb-ft of torque. The combined fuel economy improves from 20 MPG on the standard gasoline variant to 29 MPG on the hybrid variant, making the increase in sticker price worth it. The performance of the Buick LaCrosse Hybrid Sedan also improves here, with the car accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 8.0 seconds. Buick offers the same 10 colors for the LaCrosse Hybrid Sedan. The LaCrosse Hybrid Sedan mainly competes against the Toyota Camry Hybrid, the Honda Accord Hybrid, and the Ford Fusion Hybrid.

Buying Advice

The Leather trim holds the best value for the money as it comes with features like auto-dimming mirrors, rear parking sensors, keyless ignition and entry, leather upholstery, heated front seats, driver memory settings, and an eight-way power front passenger seat.
