Buick gave a sneak peek of their 2012 LaCrosse with eAssist.

The system uses a state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery and electric motor-generator to boost fuel economy. The technology also provides class-leading highway fuel economy of 37 mpg, while maintaining the luxury, performance and value expected from the flagship sedan.
