The 2022 Buick Encore GX is a new subcompact luxury crossover that is earning the attention of many consumers. With its efficient power, AWD performance, advanced safety technologies and more, it has been quite popular since arriving on the market and there is no reason that it shouldn’t remain just as popular in years to come.
The Buick Encore GX comes standard with an ECOTEC 1.3L Turbo engine that generates 155 hp and 174 lb-ft of torque this year. A nine-speed electronically controlled transmission enhances performance while contributing to fuel efficiency of 9.0 / 8.1 L/100 km. All-wheel drive is standard on all models. Not a bad value proposition for a luxury SUV with a price tag of less than $30,000!
We may categorize it as a subcompact crossover, but it offers plenty of volume and utility inside. There are 1,422 litres of cargo capacity behind the first row and 665 litres behind the second. With folding rear seats, this opens up storage flexibility and room found in larger crossovers and SUVs.
The open design also results in plenty of passenger room. For example, there is 1,039 mm of front legroom, 1,407 mm of front shoulder room and up to 1008 mm of front headroom. Whether you go for a quick trip around town or on a cross-country adventure, the Encore GX provides the space you need.
The Buick Encore GX also shines when it comes to safety. The Encore GX actively alerts you to potential hazards in a variety of situations using Buick Driver Confidence. Standard on each trim, this safety system features Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Following Distance Indicator, Intellibeam and Front Pedestrian Braking.
The Encore GX also features advanced body construction, generous airbags, and a host of other available safety technologies that provide more peace of mind.
