Buick Envision Plus SUV, Verano Pro Sedan Debut At Auto Shanghai

The Verano left the US market a few years back and there's no sign it will return, but the small sedan enjoys an extended life for the Chinese market. The latest version still maintains a familiar shape on the outside though you'll find an updated face that Buick says is "airplane-inspired."
