Head Turning

Wanted something different from all the SUV's out there and wow, this car is fantastic. Super comfy for long road trips and really quiet on the highway. The turbo engine has a lot of pick-up even using regular fuel. We ordered the sunroof and it's HUGE with a great power cover. We also love all the safety features and this thing turns heads everywhere we go and is really enjoyable to drive. GM should really advertise this great car more.

Sweet looking, but has a few issues

First off, my largest compliant is: there is literally zero storage space for small personal items. If you have the sun roof, you also lose the sun glass holder. I guess the German cars are not for carrying small items that need to be stashed away (Keys, change, cell phones, employee badge, etc. Second, the front end makes a lot of noise. Lots of crunching when you drive over uneven pavement especially at lower speeds and if braking when the weight transfers forward. Just annoying. Third, when you start it cold, it really sounds like it is struggling to provide power until it warms up. The first 1 mile just feels painful to the little engine that wants too. Other than those items - I love it. It looks awesome, turns heads, ride nice, handles well, gets good gas mileage, has enough power and is fun to drive. The AWD works great in the winter as well.

I love this car more every time I drive it. I have the Essence trim. With the smooth, quiet, ride and the Bose sound system, it's an experience. The handling is superb. It is very fun to drive.... you wouldn't know it's a wagon. I've had it for 2 months and have forgotten about the limited storage space and the low profile. There is no better value on the market for the ride, handling, fuel economy, and comfort.

Draws more attention than a Volvo V90 wagon, for $25k less. Just as capable, and when optioned correctly, just as full featured and luxurious. Materials in the interior may be a slight step down, but overall a great value. Quiet, composed ride with more than enough power. Unless you plan to off road often, this vehicle's AWD works great. And you won't see yourself coming and going either. Dealers are willing to discount these right now too. One year in and this vehicle still impresses. A couple of small issues like the infotainment system pre-sets not always working, the reverse camera guide lines disappearing during back-up, and still waiting for a replacement for damaged passenger side mirror, but mechanically it has been great, 34 MPG on a couple road trips. Would recommend if anyone is considering the TourX, get one now as GM will not sell them after this year, pity.

40000 mile update: still runs great - super reliable - gets compliments on looks weekly. Had our first issue - the kick to open tailgate feature failed. Fixed under warranty. 30000 mile Update: Zero issues with the car. Looks great, runs great. Never had a car where so many people stop and ask what it is and say how much they like it. It is shame Buick didn’t make an effort to sell these. Original: Great car. High gas mileage. Tons of cargo space. Comfortable ride. Nice interior. Super winter performance - we live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Plenty of power. Apple CarPlay. Don't need a step ladder to wash it or load something on the carrier. We get approached every week by someone who sees it in a parking lot and says: 'Wow - that is a great looking car' and 'I had no idea Buick made a car like that'. We have a bright red 2019 with Essence Trim. 6000 miles on it - ZERO issues. Crazy that Buick has given up on these.

It's an Opel!

Wow! Got the essence trim for $30.500, probably could have got a few more $$$ knocked off but they gave me a great deal on trade in. Some reviewers complain of the start/stop feature. Easy to override, put in manual 'tiptronic' mode at stop lights. Heck, it is more fun. My wife did not want the Nanny features so it does not have pkg 2. I have to agree with her, much more fun to drive the car without it yelling at me every two minutes that I am doing something wrong. Yes, cupholders could use a redesign but have figured out to use low commuter cups to get to temp control. Android auto is great. And the power. 2.0 t eco tech GM engine is assume, yes you may have to do some work and shift it manually but that is what driving is about. Ride is amazing, had an issue with a clunking sound first 100 miles, dealer put in a new shock absorber, that was the issue. Did I say this is an Opel? Made in Germany, feels like it and drives like it. Too bad Opel got bought out by Puegot who makes really good pepper mills! This car will disappear off the Buick lots so buy one now. Dont be like the rest of the sheep and buy a CUV!

I was looking for a station wagon, after driving Audi’s and BMW’s for the past 10 years. I had seen this model, with an Opel badge in Germany, and was surprised to see 2 in the parking lot of Vaden of Beaufort, with the Buick badge! I test drive a leftover 2019, loved it, bought it, and I am in a great car with an American motor, Japanese transmission and assembled in Germany. All-wheel drive, fully- loaded, and a great price (it is being discontinued at the end of this model year.). Love it!

Very good wagon

Last December I bought my 2019 Regal TourX, fully loaded and after 7K miles I still like my purchase and feel that I made the right choice. My car received over 10K in discounts which definitely helped me reach my decision. Apart from the pricing, the car I feel is good, well built and with many positives. After my purchase, GM announced dropping the TourX which for me is a head scratcher because a) It is a vg all around wagon/vehicle, and b) others seem to like it as I get complements on the car's looks. In summary, the positives: It looks super nice, it drives smooth with enough power and outstanding road manners, excellent ergonomics(seating, access, rear seat, space, comfort, buttons), near excellent infotainment and technology (the adaptive cruise control and heated steering are must have!, the LCD screen is big enough, the software above average and the response is quick) and good MPG (~30 hwy and ~22 city). The negatives are few and I know I am being picky: The lane assist although good could have been better(when using I find myself dealing with a bit of lane to lane correction, maybe it is on me?), the interior is using the GM hard plastics(what is GM thinking? Come on GM this is a 40K car! Get on any VW/Hyundai/Honda vehicle and can tell the difference), the seats (although fine with good comfort) are wrapped in cheap quality leather and could use a bit more padding, to access the oil filter requires removing the engine's lower dust cover. On reaching my decision, I was in the market for a wagon with a budget 35-45K. So I drove the Volvo v90, (impressive and expensive, over 55K!), almost bought the Subaru Outback (I liked it, was not sold on the big screen-too bright @night- and I thought the near 40K thought it was too much for a wagon, which at times was looking a bit like a "tool", wanted a bit of luxury too, like the Volvo). The TourX was always in the back of my mind and kept asking why not the Buick?When comparing equipment, performance against the Subaru, the Buick TourX, for my needs, was coming close enough (my off road needs are...minimal, needed a wagon for the space and 4wheel drive it was a nice to have) and as mentioned about 10K less. So bought the Buick TourX, it is my first US vehicle (and it is made is Germany! go figure) however after 7K miles all is good, enjoying it and if you are for a wagon...take a look.

I needed an all-wheel drive with large cargo space and the TourX turned out just right for me. Smooth quiet ride that is way better than comparably priced Outback or other SUV. I like the handling, and acceleration is impressive. I get about 26-27 mpg on mixes driving with regular unleaded and easily over 30mpg on the highway. For the price I paid, you really can’t ask for anything more. Update: I have had this car for 19 months (Nov 2019-July 2021). It has 21k now. No problem whatsoever.
