Buick Alternators

Buick is one of GM’s four active domestic brands and is also the oldest marque within the company. Founded in 1899 by Scottish-born inventor David Dunbar Buick, Buick acted as the foundation on which future parent General Motors was built. Buick was also an automotive innovator; David Dunbar Buick invented the first “pushrod” overhead valve engine which would later become a longtime traditional staple for GM engines--particularly, their V8 engines. They had also created the first-ever car with turn signals and in 1948, introduced the first torque-converted automatic transmission. Buick also satisfied those with a need for speed in the 1960s throughout the 1980s. Belying their place in the luxury car segment, Buick hit the performance market hard with the blistering Gran Sport Stage 2, domineering GSX, and the sinister NASCAR-inspired Grand National GNX. This McLaren-engineered variant of the otherwise docile Buick Regal latter actually made due with a turbocharged V6 and was among the fastest production cars of the late 1980s, even displacing such names like Porsche, Ferrari, and GM’s own Chevrolet Corvette. Today’s Buick is quite different from the classically large, floaty full-size sedans of the ‘40s and ‘50s; the handsomely-dressed street and strip terrors of the ‘60 through ‘80s; and the value-oriented family luxury haulers of the ‘90s. Buick is a global competitor in the entry level Luxury segment with smaller, nimble, sport-tuned sedans featuring modern, European-style performance and technology.
