To demonstrate the updated 2014 LaCrosse sedan’s new safety features such as the Side Blind Zone Alert and Forward Collision Alert, Buick’s creative department had to use a second vehicle, which as you would imagine, is another model from the brand’s range.
Instead of placing another LaCrosse, though, Buick used a digital version of the 2014 Regal, as pointed out by Carscoops reader Chien-Jay.
And how can we be sure that the rear end of the Regal in the video and pictures seen here is indeed the facelifted model that will join the 2014 LaCrosse at Buick’s New York Auto Show stand this week? Well, because it has the same redesigned tail lamps and chrome trim at the back as the 2014 Opel and Vauxhall Insignia prototypes spied in Europe.
Other changes we expect to see on the new model year Regal, and consequently, on its European Insignia sibling, are mild styling tweaks up front and the interior.
Hat-tip to Chien-Jay!
