Buick , Saturn, GMC and Chevrolet are readying new crossover SUVs to compete in the growing segment. “It’s a crossover world, and we’re just living in it,” GM Vice Chairman Bob Lutz said during a media briefing Thursday at the automaker’s technical center. Three of the planned crossover vehicles — the Saturn Outlook, GMC Acadia , and Buick Enclave — will be assembled at GM’s Delta Township assembly plant under construction near Lansing. Lutz said the new crossovers will primarily be powered by fuel efficient 4-cylinder or 6-cylinder engines, but added each “will be compatible” with versions of the company’s hybrid gas-electric system under development.
