2019 Buick Cascada: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The 2019 Buick Cascada is a true carryover with no major product changes from 2018. Its biggest distinction is that it was the final U.S. model year, with no 2020 Cascada following it.
About the 2019 Buick Cascada
1st generation (US-market 2016-2019), final year
Buick presents the Cascada as a stylish four-seat convertible built mainly for relaxed open-air cruising. Its main strengths are a power soft top that operates at low speeds, roof insulation for year-round use, a heated leather-appointed cabin, usable rear seating and trunk space, and a standard turbo engine. The focus is comfort, ease of use, and visual presence rather than sharp sports-car performance.
Buick positioned the 2019 Cascada as a comfortable four-seat convertible with an insulated power soft top, heated leather-appointed front seats, and built-in navigation. Premium adds parking sensors and driver warnings, while Sport Touring stands out with 20-inch wheels, sport pedals, and a flat-bottom steering wheel.
