The Car Guide rating N/A
A fourth utility vehicle called Encore GX is joining the Buick lineup for 2020. This next-generation model is much more modern and a bit roomier (about 140 litres of extra cargo room) than the standard Encore we’ve known for years. Several driver-assist features are available including Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection and a Rear Camera Mirror. The turbocharged 1.2-litre and 1.3-litre three-cylinder engines on the menu deliver 137 and 155 horsepower, respectively.
