200 hp is probably ok for the purpose of this car. The base 1.8 turbo engine in the Audi A3 Cabriolet, which Buick considers a Cascada competitor, is 170 hp. A 220 hp 2.0 turbo is available too but that pushes the A3's base price to around $40K.
The larger Audi A5 Cabriolet is actually closer in size to the Cascada than the A3 but is MUCH higher priced than the Buick, has standard AWD, etc.
I think the Cascada could be a nice package it's just that convertible sales are way down these days. For better or worse, SUVs are where it's at right now even for Buick. Their two bestsellers, Enclave and Encore, are SUVs and Buick is expected to add another SUV to the lineup next year.
