This Year's Model Updates:

The Terraza is an all-new "crossover sport van." Think of it as a minivan with an SUV-like front end.

Pros:
  • Smooth ride and handling, lots of nifty interior storage spaces, innovative multimedia storage system, standard stability control on 2WD model, available all-wheel drive.
Cons:
  • Engine power and refinement not up to class leaders, no side curtain airbags.

  • A great vehicle for the dollar - 2005 Buick Terraza
    By -

    This is my second mini van, and it is by far the best I drove before buying it. The comfort, looks, and standard equipment is outstanding. The ride is excellent, and very controlled. I like the Traction Control, and Stabilitrak which are standard on the Terazza. I think the engine is just right for the vehicle. I have no trouble merging into traffic, or passing. Lets face it. Most passing today is done on an interstate highway while you are on cruise contol. You dont need all that power to get around another vehicle. On my first highway trip, I averaged 27.6 MPG. That with only 1200 miles on the clock. Not to shabby.

    The ride, the looks are all classic Buick lines. The non-traditional look of this mini van is what seperates it from the rest. It no longer looks like the mom mobile.

    We have only owned this car for a few days, but so far its ability to keep my children comfortable and occupied, while Im busy driving, has been great. The onboard entertainment packages cant be beat. I also find it to ride and drive very smooth and quiet. There is not alot of cargo room though, for things such as groceries. I guess something had to give, to seat 7 passengers comfortably. Overall, I give it a thumbs up. Plenty of power and great gas mileage for your average "soccer mom". Also has lots of overhead and behind the seat storage compartments to keep things safely stowed away.

    Love the quiet ride and feel. Handles great. Nicely designed dash and controls. Love the front end. It has all the features I have loved in my minivan, but he feel and look of an SUV... Ive always thought the minvan was a more versatile, family friendly vehicle than most SUVs. ..and with power slidng doors, no fingers get caught and no doors get banged up with kids in and out. The Terraza nicely combines comfort and practicality

    I traded my Caravan in for this new Buick. The seats are very comfortable. The vehicle handles great. My wife used the traction control to get up our hill after a snow storm and she loved it. If you want comfort for your family this is your vehicle. Go look at the stow-go seats and then check out the Terraza. There is no comparison to the quality. A fun vehicle to drive and a great looking one too.

    After driving this auto (Terraza) 1,400 miles from mich. to florida, I find the auto to be a great choice. The ride is very good, the XMSR is a great addition, and the gas mileage was 24.7 MPG for the entire trip.

    Buick,s Terraza is basically a re- packaged Olds Silouette.although they boosted horse power by 15 It translates to an almost unnoticable power increase. The ride is firmer and markedly quieter.The instrumentation shows nicer than that of the Olds,with new chrome added,which by the way is much in abundance throughout the vehiclethe over head "rail"system for storage and dvd is done well the dvd screen is 1 inch smaller than Oldsand must be loaded at the screen a set back for those with children to small to do it themselves,the split fold down rear seat is a good additionas is the opt of XM radio ,navagation system not available at this time.new nose is stylish but still dosent pass for SUV
