Not really. The Terrain, by SUV standards, is more compact than mid-size. It's also too much of an SUV, and not as carlike as the Outback/Venza/Crosstour/XC70/All-Road, which a Regal AWD wagon would be competing against.

They may share a dealership, but two very different tuning methods between GMC and Buick. Buick needs their own midsize

That car is so freakin' good looking. As an Outback owner, this car is not even league as the Outback.

I would gladly trade in the Outback for this car. The world will never have enough Euro wagons.
