Quiet Luxury In A Small Package

R.H.Beck, 09/18/2015
2014 Buick Verano Leather Group 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)
32 of 33 people found this review helpful

I'm used to driving a larger sedan, and was really surprised by the quiet quality ride and handling of this little sedan. While the natural aspirated 2.4L engine isn't a power house, it has sufficient on-ramp acceleration for merging with freeway traffic without protest. I would probably opt for the 2.0 turbo engine if buying again; but I was used to V-8 power prior to this purchase. I typically get 31-34 mpg running the 75 mph speed limits on the Oklahoma turnpike, and 33-35 on secondary highways at 65 mph. I live in an urban country setting with mixed driving, and average about 26.5 mpg locally. The Bluetooth, voice recognition, and other infotainment system functions work flawlessly. I'm 5'11", and my wife is 5'1", and the car is very comfortable for both of us to drive. The interior materials are high quality with good fit and finish. There's plenty of storage. The rear seats are very comfortable for adults, and rear leg room is adequate, but not spacious; and exit and entry to the rear passenger compartment requires a little more effort. Overall, this car is a pleasure to drive.

With roads filled with Camrys, Accords, and Fusions, why not take a look at the Buick Verano, a nice entry level luxury sedan. Built on the same platform as the Chevy Cruze, and that's where the comparison stops. Buick designed a completely different body and shares few interior parts. It is conservatively styled and elegant. When compared in looks to its siblings the Verano fits right in but as a compact. It has a classy quite interior with comfortable seating. The rear will be a little cramped for some. The 2.4 180 HP engine with 6 speed automatic transmission is refined and smooth. This is the same engine used for the larger base Regal. I average around 23 MPG, not great but considering the ride and smooth shifting transmission it's no sacrifice. The cabin environment is very inviting and features 10 airbags. I have the convenience group in mine, it adds auto night adjusting rear view mirror, partial power drivers seat, lane change warning, frontal collision warning, heated seats, side warning system added to the standard back up camera, all this added to a long list of standard equipment. There is a pretty user friendly infotainment system with voice command blue tooth, standard. The dash has some clutter but glows light blue at night. 18" alloy wheels are standard. The Verano feels like a larger car and offers excellent value. You won't look like everyone else driving one. Well after having the car nearly three years there is a major paint deteriation issue mostly on the roof and trunk lid. Others have had this problem too! The car is out of warranty but GM has given me a minimal allowance to have a local dealer paint portions of the car. I am still confronting the dealer for lousy workmanship and a run down battery that they won't addmit to techs negligence. Everything else is peachy!

2014 buick verano Buffalo NY - Joe Tyson

Joe Tyson, 11/27/2015
2014 Buick Verano Leather Group 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)
39 of 42 people found this review helpful

This car is all out amazing. No joke man. Its beautifully designed and well built. My very first car was a 1989 Buick Regal and Buick has come a long way. I came out of a Ford Explorer so getting in and out of the Buick Verano takes some getting use to. The style and view of this car is nice. I feel good about driving it daily. I am confident about it being outside while I work in a rough area in NY. It picks up like a 6 cylinder but its a 4 cylinder. The leather seas are nice and full and nothing is cheap about the car and that's why I understand the price I paid for it. Touch screen, rear camera for the car being in reverse, heated seats and lane assist. This car is beautiful. Not much rear passenger seating but that's okay because I have a small child. I feel good about this purchase and this car makes me want to stay in the family of the American built Buick

Good looking car for old or young. Great inside, really looks good. Nice quite ride. Good road handling. Poor MPG, but not all that bad. My av. has been getting better with more use. Large trunk for a compact car. Have 5,000 plus on car. no problems. Info ctr. is great, all new safety features are great also. I really like this car. After 10.000 more miles, fuel MPG has edged up to around 28MPG. Same feeling about car as above. No service problems at all. Now, Car at almost 20,00 miles. Still love this car..no issues, no problems at all. Sorry to see GM stop this model. The roads around York Co. PA are really bad but this car handles them well. No noise issues from car on bad bumpy wash board roads. Tires are wearing good. On thing I do wish this car had, is a lumbard rest on the back of the drivers seat. Still a great car, my wife loves it! 4000 more miles this date Jan. 2018 No problems, car still is great, roads in this area are getting so bad Car has no noise problems at all. Drove it in the snow one morning last week and it did fine. Roads snow covered. Nice car pleased with it!

Nothing I don't love about this car, and this is coming out of a Cadillac. Snappy, sporty, great entertainment/phone system, no lag at all. Warranties are excellent as well. Can't say enough, and I'm back in Buick for good.

This car has awesome build quality. All the panel gaps are perfect the black paint is amazing! I constantly receive compliments. I've owned BMW 7 series, Corvette, Lexus, Miata etc and nothing comes close to the combination of handling, quiet interior, combination of convenience, performance and economy. I love the styling and design. I've taken 2 long trips and the combination of comfortable front seats, 2 zone temperature control, satellite radio, front crash and blind spot warning, a large trunk, getting 32 mpg at 80 mph, and powerful engine all make me very happy. On last my last trip I hauled a 600# trunk load of books, plus luggage 3,000 miles up and over mountains, around sharp curves, and the car responded beautifully! One of the design choices I enjoy is how the transmission is setup ... when you touch the gas you get immediate acceleration noooo lag and touch the brake the transmission down shifts to help brake the car. It took playing with the electric drivers seat settings to keep my thighs from getting pinched and sore. It took awhile to get used to a blind spot caused by the passenger side windshield/roof pillar. Update 9/30/16 ... The quality of this car continues to amaze me so far nothing but oil changes!

Beautiful car! I have had this car for a month now and so there is a lot about it I still don't know. But I do love the car it handles well feels nice and I feel safe. I like it safety features and back up mirror. The only problem I have is because my legs are short, it's hard for me To get in and out of the car Unless I change the seat position. I don't like having to change it every time I get in or out. This car has a lot of technology and I have not yet familiarized myself with all of it. I do believe that it will all be helpful and that I will love it. The more I drive it the more familiar I've become with the car and it's workings. I'm very happy about the car. I feel like I've stepped up in the world!

One of the best build cars I have owned out of about 20 new cars, quiet, smooth ride. Triple door gaskets and glass with a laminate sandwiched in the middle. The build quality for a car in this price range is amazing.My sister and Mother each bought one also and love them. If Buick keeps building cars like this they will keep customers happy!

This isnt your typical grandma sedan, this is thee grandma sedan. Countless times i have been assumed to be a grandma, then i gap them the a bored out 2.4L into a 3.1L and a custom twin turbo set up and race fuel rails. Getting a max of 190mph, while driving like the typical grandma i still get 26mpg on average but who cares when you pull up to the light and everyone is expecting the other person to put a school bus inbetween the two of you. Instead youll leave them confused as a luxury sedan making whistling noises just put them in the dust. 10/10 would recomend

So far, I have put over 100,000 miles on my car and haven't had a single issue aside from the paint starting to fade on the hood. I use it daily and have taken it on several long trips. I would definitely recomend the Verano to anyone looking for a reliable car.

Probably wouldn’t buy another one. Have had some weird noises coming from engine Chevy says they fixed but are still there. Gear shifter butter broke at about 50k miles . Chevy quoted $350 to fix. Recall for AC but still isn’t fixed. Gas mileage is poor for a car that size. Does ride nice on highway and interior is quiet.

Ride, accelleration, dependabiility, fuel efficiency, and luxury features, even now! The car has been great! We decided not to trade it in this year and to keep it for a few more years before even considering it. Had all the fluids (coolant, brake, transmission, etc) changed, new plugs, new tire sensors. It runs like a new car! We have the 2.0 turbocharged premium model. Added a carpuride unit to add apple car play and it is not missing a beat! The only issue we have had started this week, and it is an occasional put car in park message when stopping the car. Having that looked at this week, but with the years and mileage, this is one of the most trouble free cars we have ever owned!

This is my 5th Buick. I've had two Regals and two Park Avenue's. I wanted to get the Lacross just because I like a car with extra space but I find this car just a luxurious and just a comfortable as the Lacross. It's packed with safety features and for being a compact car, it rides and feels like a full-size car. If you love Buicks, this car will meet if not exceed your expectations.

I have not yet owned this car for a full month, so I really don't feel qualified to rate it in most areas. It does have the features that I wanted. It is difficult for me to get into and to get out of, but then, I am overweight and no longer young. It drives nicely. It has a lot of pep for a four-banger. I can read the instruments, and I really like the entertainment system. It looks good, without all the angles that so many newer cars seem to have. The grill is at least chrome plated plastic, which is much nicer than black. The wheels look good, and the suspension is great. I'm looking forward to my first road trip. *From 1989's album, "Nick of Time," the single "Too Soon To Tell."
