Lots of new technology and easy to use. Drives great, handles well, great fuel economy. Lots of luxury in a small suv.

Bought a 2024 Preferred 8 months ago. Very comfortable….love how it drives…great gas mileage BUT have had several annoying issues. First was my seat material being warped after sitting on it. They replaced the seat material 3 times finally it’s somewhat better. Also, I have 3 windows that squeak 80% of the time and multiple other rattles and squeaks going down the road. Very annoying. I thought Buick was to be a quiet ride. Also when backing out of the driveway I often get the warning of no tire pressure in any tires. After complaining to Buick and the dealership multiple times I’m getting the run around. The dealership has even offered to get me in another 2024 since they can’t figure out the issues after having the car in 6 times and 21 days total but being late in the year they can’t find me a 2024 where I won’t lose major money. Very disappointing,

Had my Encore GX a little over a month now and it has not disappointed me. Love the look, style and drive is smooth and quiet. Lots of extras on the Avenir package that I really love. Best small SUV I've ever owned. Recommended if you're in the market for a great new ride.

My wife and I are very pleased with our 2024 Encore GX purchased used w/ only 2500 mi on the clock. The Encore GX is one of the current Buick lineup of 3 small SUVs for about $25k; I suspect these hidden gems are unknown to many Americans. Unfortunately Buick's focus on China has resulted in the Buick brand being all but forgotten in the US. The NHTSA has given a ***** Overall Safety Rating to the 2024 GX. I have one negative with the Encore -- I'm 6'-1" and the Encore is small for me. Some call the cabin "surprisingly roomy" for a sub-compact suv. Truth be said IT'S JUST SMALL. Likes * 1.2L Turbo engine surprisingly strong in city driving * Entry-level luxury at a moderate price * Fun to drive (some call it boring) * Lots and lots and ... of safety features * Excellent mileage (30+ mpg) for an ICE SUV * Sits up high (as a SUV should!) due to 18" wheels * Quiet cabin due to Buick's QuietTuning technology * Heated seats, steering wheel, outside mirrors * Physical buttons/knobs for radio, climate controls -great * Power hatch/liftgate w/ kick plate - very handy * Traction & Stability control Dislikes * 1.2L Turbo engine is somewhat challenged on the highway * Design same-same as every other small SUV on the road * Seats are narrow, hard and uncomfortable * Road noise is worse than expected for a Buick * Small cargo area w/o rear seat backs down * Insufficient legroom in back seats * Insufficient rear headroom for tall persons * AM/FM/Satellite radio difficult to program * VERY sensitive brakes and accelerator
