1998 Buick Signia

This is a concept multiple-activity vehicle that offers the versatility of a van or sport utility versatility while retaining the comfort, convenience, and safety of a premium family sedan (based on Park Avenue architecture). Signia is taller, somewhat wider, and significantly shorter than Park Avenue. It also has higher seats and roof as well as inset rocker panels for easier passenger access.


Cargo space is enhanced by independently folding seats and a powered rear floor that extends 15 inches out the back. Large rear doors with a 90-degree opening range also provide easy cargo access. A hinged, composite-plastic hatch functions as a sunroof and outside cargo carrier and is removable to transport bulky items. Infrared sensors detect objects in the blind spot and trigger warnings displayed in the outside rearview mirrors.


The remote keyless entry fob can provide Personal Choice settings for seat positions, climate controls, entertainment sound systems, and the tilt and telescoping steering wheel. The engine is a 240-horsepower supercharged 3800 Series II V-6. An innovative hybrid all-wheel-drive system controls torque based upon wheel speed sensors monitoring traction needs. In front of the driver’s seat are reconfigurable head-up and head-down animated color displays. The color is described as metallic-ochre.
