Turbo version of Buick Verano priced at $29,990

The Buick Verano Turbo sedan will sticker at $29,990, including the $885 shipping charge, when it hits dealerships this fall.

The Verano Turbo will use the same four-cylinder as the Buick Regal GS sedan but makes a shade less power at 250 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Additionally, it will get an EPA-estimated 20 mpg on the street and 31 mpg on the highway. The 0-to-60-mph sprint will take 6.2 seconds.

The turbocharged Verano will come with an impressive amount of equipment standard, including dual exhaust, sport pedals, a rear spoiler, premium audio, leather seats, push-button start, a rearview camera and a few other odds and ends. Navigation and a sunroof are optional.

Pricing for the base 2013 Buick Verano is $23,965 including $885 in destination charges. That makes the turbo at about six grand more.
