Cockpit

Instrument cluster

Digital readouts like the Riviera's, with no analog needles.

Centre display

Electronic Control Center (ECC)

Ran the audio and climate, plus a trip computer, date reminder, settable speed warning and sensor diagnostics.

Conventional radio and climate controls

Push-button audio and climate panel without a trip computer; diagnostic readouts were reached through the climate buttons instead.

Facts

  • The Electronic Control Center was Buick's name for the Riviera's Graphic Control Center as fitted to the Reatta.[2][3]
  • The 1990 interior redesign added a driver's airbag, and a CD player joined the options.[1]
