Used 2021 Buick Encore GX Select 4dr SUV AWD (1.3L 3cyl Turbo 9A) Consumer Reviews
Love the car but come on gm A 3 cylinder engine
The car drives and handles wonderful lots of safety features But the 9 speed cvt is lacking in performance, buick customer service is terrible have had engine light on for two weeks and they tell me to drive it like that as they have no service dates available for weeks to look at it (Been in twice)
Great small SUV
Great small SUV. My GX has ALL the latest high tec. options. Only 4800 miles at thi point. Love the heads up display and all the other features.. Ride could be a little more soft. Gets very good MPG:. 32 mpg.. Only fault I have found is that the car seems to drift. Buick could have put a better line of tires on the car. My wife loves this car also!

Encore! Encore!!!
As with my previous Encore, I especially appreciate the back support system and the great handling and sharp turns this car offers. I am able to switch from all wheel drive to two wheel drive - the savings in gas mileage is noticeable. This car has great pick-up, smooth riding and comfortable. A pleasure to drive. I like the solid sound when closing the door. Also the push button start and off. The automatic open and close of the trunk - great convenience. So many luxurious features for a subcompact SUV. Not surprised being a Buick. I used to be a Park Ave. person ~ now am an Encore fan. I’ve only had the car for a week and so far have not found anything I don’t like. Am continually pleasantly surprised by its very many, very nice features.

Good car for the elderly - not for a real driver
This car is the most sensitive junk I've ever owned and I've owned a lot of cars. There are so many little things that can and do go wrong. There is an emissions "evac pump" that has been broken for several months now - the dealership says it's fine to drive it like that but, my auto start doesn't work as a result. If you have to take evasive maneuvers in this car be prepared to pull over and reset everything. The power steering sensor will go off and sometimes the traction control goes off. So, I have to pull over - turn off the car then turn it back on. Also they took my tire jack when I bought the car - said it was a recall - I just called today (2 years later) to see if the jack has come in or if the repair part is there. Nope - I would never in my life buy a GM or Buick vehicle after this experience. Toyota, why did I ever leave or doubt you?!!

Don’t believe the “professional” reviews!
For starters I’ve owned many fast & luxury type cars. Porsche, Amg, BMW, Corvettes, Benz etc. I bought an Encore GX Select, it’s quiet with an excellent ride and surprisingly peppy for its 1.3 turbo. It has a Cadillac style interior similar to the XT6. Honestly Buick did a great job with this car. If you’re looking for something comfortable, amazingly peppy with a smooth and quiet ride definitely buy one! Don’t listen to the “professional” ratings, they’ve gotten it wrong!!
