The 2011 Buick Lucerne, a full-size sedan, represented the final iteration of a nameplate that had graced Buick's lineup since 1961. This generation, introduced in 2006, was built on GM's W-platform and aimed to provide a luxurious and comfortable driving experience. Its design leaned towards a traditional, stately aesthetic, featuring a long, sloping hood, a prominent grille, and large, swept-back headlights. Inside, the Lucerne offered ample space for five passengers, with generously proportioned seats and a well-appointed cabin featuring high-quality materials. The focus was on providing a serene and comfortable environment, with soft-touch surfaces, plush seating, and good insulation to minimize road noise.

Powering the 2011 Lucerne was a 3.9L V6 engine producing 240 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque, paired with a standard six-speed automatic transmission. While the V6 offered ample power for everyday driving, a 4.6L V8 engine was also available as an option, delivering 275 horsepower and 305 lb-ft of torque. The V8 delivered a more potent driving experience, offering increased acceleration and passing power. The Lucerne was designed for a smooth and comfortable ride, featuring a fully independent suspension system that effectively absorbed bumps and uneven road surfaces. With its focus on comfort, luxury, and practicality, the 2011 Buick Lucerne offered a compelling alternative to traditional full-size sedans from other brands. Despite its strong points, the model eventually lost its appeal to newer, more fuel-efficient and technologically advanced competitors, ultimately leading to its discontinuation in 2011.
