I've had this car for 3 years and I do not have any major complaints. It's a peppy little thing and the steering is very responsive. Gas mileage is good. Storage space is good. Everything about this car is excellent.

This is a great car but its really small and compact if you are looking for closeness with your passengers then this is the car for you. Has everything in the car you would want but feel like riding in a bubble.

I am an active older woman, and my husband and I wanted to buy a vehicle with some luxury touches, a higher seating position and a quiet interior. I kept looking at the Encore and being put off by reviews saying that the engine is too small, it’s slow etc. But when I actually test drove an Encore Leather, I was hooked. No problems merging on to the highway or driving on hills. The turbocharged engine managed just fine. Have driven it for 3 mths mostly in town with a few trips on the highway, and one in Rocky Mountain Nat. Pk. There, the car purred quietly up and down the snowy and sometimes slippery mountain roads and I could easily control the downhill speed in the Manual range.

Bought the Leather AWD Feb. 2014 and I currently have 65,000+ miles on mine. Great commuter car. I drive 12 miles (no highway) in/out of Boston for work. Easy to maneuver. Easy to park. Excellent milage. Quiet engine. Love my sunroof. No outstanding maintenance issues so far - regular wear and tear stuff. Although there is plenty of room in the back seat for friends, this car struggles to move through the gears with the weight of 4 adults on hilly New England highways. It's perfect for a driver and a passenger on a road trip. The back seats easily fold flat for luggage, coolers, golf clubs and beach umbrellas. Love the profile; especially the waterfall grill. So bummed the external profile changed. I would honestly buy this car all over again if they ever bring back the original profile with the waterfall grill.
