Buick GL8 Flagship Concept

The GL8 Flagship was created by PATAC designers in Shanghai integrating global resources.

Its exterior has a dynamic appeal, with sculptural surfaces highlighting its power and energy. Among the styling features are the mix of exterior colors and a panoramic roof, which features a glass canopy that extends from front to back for improved aerodynamics.

Buick’s signature wing-shaped headlamps have continued to evolve on the GL8 Flagship. They are functional, supporting advanced connectivity between the vehicle, users, pedestrians and other vehicles.

The interior design makes use of clean, natural and sculptured details. Zero gravity-like lounge seats and a flexible seating layout enable the distinct cabin to serve as an open space for all occupants.

Inspired by Chinese mountain and water landscapes, the concept vehicle has an innovative tea tray, which suggests a comfortable ride and offers a new way for people to interact.

The multi-screen connectivity is supported by a 30-inch driver-centric freeform display, an integrated touchscreen on the steering wheel and an advanced full-width head-up display.

A premium audio experience is delivered through a sound system that is integrated into the headrests. Nearly all vehicle functions can be controlled by advanced voice commands.

The seamless connectivity between the vehicle, people, infrastructure and the cloud is based on the V2X intelligent mobility technology.
