Report: Next-gen Buick Regal to be styled like Opel Monza

This really shouldn’t be much of a surprise, but AutomotiveNews heard the next generation Buick Regal should be styled like the Opel Monza Concept.

Why shouldn’t this be a shocker? Well, for starters, the current Buick Regal is already an Opel Insignia and General Motors doesn’t plan on changing the formula all too much, since both the Regal and Insignia are doing very well. That said, like the current model, the new next generation Regal will be based off of the next-gen Insignia.

According to AutomotiveNews, who spoke with Opel’s chief, Karl-Thomas Neumann and Opel’s design head, Mark Adams, the Insignia plans to move more upmarket with what Adams calls, “premium brand values.” In turn, the Buick should also follow this lead.

The new Buick Regal is expected to surface sometime in 2017.
