Buick Century Engines and Transmissions

Every Buick Century engine here is gasoline-fuelled, with a smooth V6 chosen for quiet cruising rather than outright speed. The powertrain drives the front wheels through an automatic transmission, so the drivetrain stays simple, easy to service and relaxed in traffic.
