Buick Centieme

The Centieme built by Bertone marked Buick’s 100th anniversary while also offering a vision of its future. You’ll probably recognize the Enclave crossover in the study’s proportions, design cues and three-row seating configuration. The Centieme also featured elements such as aluminum and wood accent trim and ambient lighting.

Vehicle Overview

The Buick Centieme concept is a distinctive, luxurious vehicle that combines the best features of a sedan and sport utility vehicle. The four-door Centieme seats six passengers in a three-row, dual seat configuration. The low, wide-stance vehicle sports Buick’s graceful flowing signature lines and classic grille. Combined with a relatively long wheelbase and tight overhangs, Centieme’s form also projects a nimble and energetic appearance. Centieme’s sophisticated canyon mist metallic blue-red exterior tri-coat utilizes the texture of metallic flakes to drape this upscale, rugged vehicle in elegance. A 3.6-liter, twin-turbocharged V-6 engine – good for 400 horsepower and 400 lbs.-ft. of torque – complements the spirited design. It is mated to a Hydra-Matic 4T65-E electronically controlled four-speed automatic transaxle. The Buick Centieme also features General Motors Versatrak all-wheel-drive system, advanced traction control that transfers torque from front wheels to rear, and from side to side, to maintain control on various road surfaces. The front end uses a strut configuration, while the rear employs an SLA independent suspension with coils for car-like performance and handling. Built by famed Italian design house Bertone, the Centieme rides on 22-inch front and rear aluminum wheels with Michelin tires. The front brakes are six-piston calipers with 15-inch rotors backed up by four-piston calipers with 14.75-inch rotors in the rear.
