Buick recently debuted the new Wildcat Concept EV to show the brand's new design language and electrifying future. As you probably know, Buick is much, much more popular in China as it is in the US so many current Buicks are not even available in the US. I can't say whether this concept was designed with China and Chinese customers in mind, but the concept is stunning even though many details probably wouldn't see production. “The Wildcat EV concept represents the real design future for the brand,” said Sharon Gauci, executive director, Global Buick and GMC Design. “Buick has always been forward looking and this expression is a glimpse of where we’re going, and the optimism we have for the limitless possibilities of an electric future.” Firstly, automakers these days don't make coupes, even ones like this concept that has large and specially-articulated doors that allow easy access for all passengers. The fastback roofline might be another casualty although the integration of the taillights into the roof is nicely done (watch video). But most importantly, this concept announces Buick's all EV future. With a slightly higher roofline and four doors this would make a nice Buick Electra (see previous post link below to view that concept from 2020). There is a lot to like here. Can't wait to see how Buick fits this design into its future vehicles. Click on "read more" below to view the media release for mor information. Enjoy!
