Buick brings back one of its well-known nameplates — Regal — for its newest entry-luxury midsize sedan. Based on the Opel Insignia from Europe, the Regal has a striking resemblance to that model. It's offered with a choice of four-cylinder engines, one of which is turbocharged, and its  competitors include the Volkswagen Passat and Acura TSX. The Regal seats up to five people, and high-performance GS and mild-hybrid eAssist versions join the 2012 lineup.
