Where is Buick Made?

Although Buick is an American automaker, you may be surprised to know that the answer to where Buick is made is a bit more complicated. Buick manufacturing center locations are diverse, with plants situated across the United States, as well as in Canada, China, South Korea, and even in Germany. Take a look at where some of Buick brand’s more popular models are produced, below:

  • Buick Encore GX – This compact SUV is assembled at the Buick South Korea manufacturing plant in Bupyeong.
  • Buick Enclave – The three-row Buick Enclave is incredibly popular among Hodgenville families. It is currently assembled in Michigan at the Lansing Delta Township plant.
  • Buick Envision – The Buick Envision mid-size crossover SUV is currently assembled at a General Motors (GM) assembly plant in Shanghai, China.

As an entry-level luxury brand, Buick models fall into line above Chevrolet and GMC and just under Cadillac.
