The History of Buick

The history of Buick is tied closely with the early days of GM, and so you can’t discuss one without the other. Buick began producing vehicles in 1903, leading the way with many of the great automotive innovations. In that same year, Buick incorporated and set up shop in Flint Michigan, creating its first model, the Buick Model B. After 20 years, Buick made its one-millionth vehicle around the time of its 20th anniversary. 

It was during this time period that William C. Durant, who was the original Buick ownership, managed to turn Buick into the best-selling auto brand in the United States. But he was also the founder of GM in 1908, which was born out of the desire to acquire other brands that would appeal to all manner of drivers around Morton and Bloomington for years to come. Buick was always intended to be the high-end luxury brand that it is today. 

Over the years, Buick continued to delivery luxury model after luxury model, to the praise of drivers everywhere, including the Buick Super, Buick Roadmaster, Buick Special, Buick Riviera, Buick LeSabre, and the Buick Regal — a model that is still in production today!
