With Oldsmobile retired, premium minivan responsibilities are now being handled by Buick. Here Buick's approach to its new Terraza is to weave in sedan values without compromising utility and functionality, while focusing on four attributes: power, ride, quiet and style. The third entry in Buick's growing truck portfolio, Terraza is powered by a 3.5L/200-hp V-6, and will be offered in front- and all-wheel drive. Attention to safety sees the fitment of 16-inch, anti-lock disc brakes at each corner, traction control, and stability control. A traditional minivan interior is treated to premium trim, with abundant use of wood grain and chrome accents. The third-row folds flat, though not into the floor, leaving a slightly higher than normal load surface.
