2025 Buick Electra E5
Overview
Buick’s electric future will wear a name from its gas-guzzling past: Electra. The first of the Buick Electra lineup will be the 2024 Electra E5 SUV, which will also be sold in China. Powered by General Motors’s Ultium battery platform, the Electra E5 should deliver similar performance and driving range as the Cadillac Lyriq. That should mean around 340 horsepower and around 300 miles of driving range per charge. We haven’t seen any pictures of the Electra E5’s interior yet, but we’re expecting that it will contain about the same amount of space as the gasoline-powered Envision SUV.
What’s New for 2025?
The Electra E5 will be Buick’s first electric offering when it goes on sale in late 2024. We know that it will be produced in China for the Chinese domestic market, but it’s unclear if the North American version will be produced here or imported from Asia.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
Preferred
$50,000 (est)
Essence
$60,000 (est)
Avenir
$70,000 (est)
If the Electra follows the Buick brand’s current trim structure—and that’s an open question at this point—the base model will likely be the Preferred trim, with a mid-range Essence adding more luxury features, and a range-topping Avenir carrying the most goodies and the biggest price tag. When we find out more about the Electra E5 and its standard and optional equipment, we’ll update this story with that information.
