The Buick Riviera, a gorgeous idea car designed to display Buick's new international style route, made its international introduction at Auto Shanghai 2007.
The gullwing Riviera idea vehicle was developed with international style feedback by the Pan Japan Specialized Vehicle Center (PATAC) in Chinese suppliers, a style and technical innovation partnership between Common Engines and Shanghai Vehicle Industry Organization (SAIC).
The Riviera was presented today by John Wagoner, GM Chairman and CEO, and Hu Maoyuan, SAIC Chairman.
The Riviera has been designed to provide a new multiple system that will go into generation at Shanghai GM, GM's primary partnership with SAIC, in 2008.
The fuel-efficient car, which will function several technical and creating developments, symbolizes the newest success of GM and its lovers in the marketing and progression of alternative space technological innovation in Chinese suppliers.
According to Ed Welburn, v. p., GM Global Design, "Developing and establishing the Riviera in Chinese suppliers emphasizes the variety, durability and level of the GM international style system. It also shows PATAC's growing part within the GM Design family and China's importance as the biggest Buick market."
The Riviera also represents the return of a well known Buick name plate after an eight-year break, having marketed more than 1.1 thousand systems in the Combined Declares between 1963 and 1999.
The Buick Riviera, with its firmly expanded as well as fibre body sections, mixture of good and bad shapes, powerful front and back individual and gullwing doorways, records the substance of Buick video games, Welburn said, while introducing a thoroughly Modern day style.

"The Riviera idea certainly resided up to the nameplate's popularity," Welburn said.
"We designed the Riviera to connect the international style language of the Buick company and set the level for Common Motors' style, technological innovation and developing facilities to work together on the next technology of Buick mid-size high-class vehicles."
According to Wayne Shyr, PATAC Design Manager, the Riviera's attractive shapes and 'earth and water' internal shades are attracted from different inspirations such as conventional Buicks, historical China relics and modern digital symbols. The car, inside and out, conveys worldwide elegance - a look that goes beyond social or nationwide limitations.
"Designing this car made us recognize how small the world could be. It's not Eastern. It's not Western. It's not the Combined Declares or China suppliers. It's Buick," Shyr said.
Exterior Design - A Sense Of Everyday living, Not Anonymity
To identify their style route, PATAC developers checked in part to Buick symbols such as the unique Y-Job Notion of 1938, the Sixties Le Sabre, Electra 225 and the Riviera coupes of the Sixties and '70s.
The Riviera style is arranged around the Buick tri-shield logo, seated happily on a trihedral fountain grill which is established by three conference air carriers. This takes the conventional Buick treatment to a new level of innovative boldness.
The Buick logo brings into a indicative remove through the cover, a level of regard to the unique mid-hood anti aging frequent in conventional Buicks. Pointed LED headlamps circulation up the cover factors to three-section, top-mounted firefox portholes as a single piece of bracelets.
The logo, cover remove, headlamps, side showcases and musician protects all have 'icy green' backlighting available at night, equalled by backlit company company name and exhausts at the back.
