Never Thought I Would Own a Buick

I am extremely impressed with the 2019 Buick Encore. This vehicle became a standout after I finished my research of the vehicles in this class. The Encore is very nimble and handles well in most driving situations. I previously owned a Jeep Renegade and a Kia Soul, but neither of these two vehicles had the smooth ride and luxury feel of the interior that the Buick Encore possesses. I read the “CON” of the vehicle was lack of power of the standard engine. I found the engine to have more than ample power both in the city and on the highway. I never thought that I would own a Buick, but I am truly glad that I made the choice to purchase the Encore. The infotainment system is very user friendly. There were so many other SUV’s in this class that did not have the technology that this vehicle possesses. This Buick Encore is quiet and smooth and it feels much more like a luxury SUV. It is definitely worth the slightly higher price. I highly recommend this Encore to anyone seeking a quality subcompact SUV.

The Sport Touring Model Is Sporty

Leased a 2019 Encore Sport Touring FWD. The suv had most of the features important to my wife and me - power driver's seat , navigation, 18" wheels, (we live in a potential flood zone), good safety rating, one button start and reasonable price. The turbo engine has lots of pep, and the cabin noise level is very quiet, as advertised. We downsized from a Nissan Rouge, so the cargo area is greatly reduced. The visibility is excellent, as is the rear view camera an warning system. Gas mileage has been 27 mpg in town and 30 on the highway. The quality of the interior is excellent; better than the Nissan. If I have a complaint, it is only that the Encore did not come with more advanced safety features like collision avoidance. So far the suv has not had any problems requiring a visit to the dealer. No squeaks or evidence of poor workmanship at the factory. FYI, the Encore is made in Korea. Overall, we are very pleased with the Encore.

We recently purchased a new 2019 Encore Sport. If you are looking for a small SUV, you should consider it. The car is surprising quiet for a small car. The rear space is more than adequate for normal shopping. The Buick Infosystem is easy to use especially if you have had another GM vehicle. The gas milage has been better than advertised in local traffic. If you are tall, I am 6'4", don't expect anyone to sit in the back seat behind you. The acceleration is not the best but the vehicle gets up to highway speed without much problem. The ride is surprising smooth for a small car. There are a few features I would have liked such as forward collision warning and a built-in remote for the garage door that were not available in the model I purchased. The vehicle has two USB ports that are a bit difficult to access. If you purchase this vehicle, get an extra USB port for your phone and leave it plugged in. The seats are comfortable and easy to adjust. This model did not come with seat or mirrors that automatically adjust depending upon the driver. The rear seats are divided and fold down to provide additional cargo space if you need it. All things considered, I would definitely recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a small, economical SUV

I absolutely love my 2019 Buick. I unexpectedly had to go car shopping the week of christmas in 2018 after my 2006 Lexus Rx400h decided to go to car heaven! i do miss the size of the trunk i had on my Lexus and my heated seats, but i absolutely do not hate the choice i made with buy our new 2019 Buick Encore. Definitely a High Class car with a Budget Friendly Price!
