5 reasons to buy the 2014 Buick Verano
1. Engine options
Two engine options let you find the 2014 Verano that fits your driving style and local roads. The base engine is a 2.4L four-cylinder, offering smooth performance and pleasing fuel economy figures too, achieving an EPA-estimated 24 mpg combined.
2. Luxury interior
With fine craftsmanship, rich tonal colorways, and premium material finishing, the 2014 Verano cabin epitomizes modern luxury. Plush seating across two rows features premium ribbon fabric or available leather upholstery, all with French-stitched seams. Upfront, bucket seats with cushioning and bolsters provide a supportive effect for long drives. Completing this elevated feel are soft-touch surfaces, wood-tone accents, and Buick’s own QuietTuning™ technology for sound damping within the cabin.
3. Cargo space
This otherwise compact sedan offers an impressive amount of available trunk space. With a total of 14.3 cu-ft, you’ll have plenty of space for trip luggage or stocking up on groceries. When you need some extra room for a larger purchase, the 60/40-split rear row folds down to offer a few more cubes of usable space.
4. Great standard tech
There’s lots of standard and available tech for you to make use of in the 2014 Verano. For calls on the move and personal playlists, there is Bluetooth® hands-free phone and audio connectivity. A seven-inch touchscreen interface is embedded into the front dash, and equipped with Buick’s IntelliLink operating system for easy access to your in-vehicle systems and features. Satisfying rotary controllers and soft-touch control buttons complement the high-tech console finish.
5. Premium Turbo Group
Treat yourself to the 2014 Verano Premium Turbo Group features for luxurious additions to this already premium-appointed sedan. On top of the powerful turbocharged 2.0L engine upgrade this trim delivers, you’ll also get an exclusive rear spoiler, leather upholstery, and a nine-speaker Bose® audio system. Matching the rear spoiler's playfulness is a dual exhaust with chrome tips.
