Spy shots showing the facelifted Buick Regal doing some final tests in China. Debut is expected for the Guangzhou Auto Show in November and it will be launched on the China car market around the same time. The facelift brings the China-made Regal back in line with the US-spec Regal, but the Chinese versions has a bit more chrome on the grille, catering for China’s taste for bling.

The current Buick Regal, made in China by the Shanghai-GM joint venture. Price starts at 185.900 yuan and ends at 283.900 yuan. Engines: 180hp 1.6 turbo, 147hp 2.0, 220hp 2.0 turbo (in the Chinese Regal GS), and a 186hp 2.4. All engines will continue in the facelifted Regal and price will be about the same.
