Is it a smooth and comfortable ride for you? How’s the gas mileage? Does it accelerate when you need it to? I’ve been trying to find a good compact SUV and I’m really liking this Buick.
@@SunnyJ89 very smooth and comfortable. It’s quiet too. It gets decent gas mileage IMO. About 24-27. It is not the fastest in accelerating. It’s turbo charged so if you really drive your foot into it then it probably will accelerate really quickly but I didn’t drive it like that. I accelerated normally and never had issues. I would recommend this car. Go for a test drive and see for yourself.
@aiden roose it had to be repaired twice for something with the AC lines (I don’t recall exactly what since it was years ago) both times it was under warranty thankfully so I didn’t pay out of pocket. Other than that I didn’t have any issues. I kept up with all maintenance and the car really held up. No motor or transmission issues.
I Have 2021 Encore. I love it! I purchased it when dealership was having $4,000 off sticker price. I paid $26,000. Goes through snow & rain with ease. Acoustic windows keeps it nice & quiet inside. No road noise. 👍👏🏼 Only one downside. Gas mileage stinks. 25mpg city driving which is all i do. Highway 34mpg. Overall though 9 out of 10. 👍👏🏼😁
Great videos! By "riding along with you" in both the Trax and then this Encore, I could really hear the difference in the quietness of the Buick. The interior was also much nicer! So thank you for helping me narrow down my choices!
GM is boosted the power for the '21 Trax/Encore from 138hp/148ft to 155hp/177ft. Keep in mind, some of the early batches of the '21 models still have the old engine with the lower hp.
Have a 19 Buick Encore perferred and the interior in mine is all black n I really love it n it drives really great ! It’s great for me since I do DoorDash and Postmates and Grubhub n the fuel mileage is awesome
I used to think I'd get one of these as my next budget friendly car, but I went with the Corolla XSE preowned. It has great legroom, and these have less space inside.
Is this as high off the ground as an suv or just like a car? I’m asking because of the snow in winter months I need it to be high off the ground so the snow does not brake the vehicle underneath in the crazy winter months. Thanks
We had a 20" storm (the light and fluffy variety) last season and our AWD Encore drove through it to the end of the unplowed driveway with no problem. The cars are light so caution is needed when driving on slushy roads.
How much horsepower and torque? How many forward gears? CVT? I thought these only had 1.2 or 1.3 liter engines. Why does this get a 1.4? Or did you misspeak?
This looks exactly like my 2017 Buick Encore preferred ii, except mine doesn’t have a sunroof and mine has way more room and is still small. Still would prefer mine!
Yes I bought a 2021 also love the way God love the way it right but then I mean but if you drive when the data it’s great the night time your two side windows are blinded by the dash
I have a 2019 Encore sport touring package. I love it. I was in an accident and waiting to find out if it's been totaled.. now I'm trying to find out if the Encore 2021 preferred has remote start. Does anyone know?
Go on Buick website and do a little research for your own channel . 1.4 no longer offered . You can’t get the heading wrong for the video dude, come on.
I still own my 2013 Encore and I still absolutely love it! It’s been a great car for me these past 7 years!

Is this car worth buying? Also would my 72 year old mother have a hard time getting in and out of this car?

Does it have a ctv transmission
@@PeaceWithin82 It has a six speed transmission. No CVT.
Thanks for the review. I lost my 2008 Buick Lucerne in an accident and am thinking of buying this Buick because I loved my old Buick so much.
My friend has this car and loves it. She drove it from Atlanta to Dallas Tx on one full tank of gas.
Atlanta, Tx to Dallas, Tx?
So it ranged around 56 miles per gallon??? The math is not adding up ????

One of the BEST Encore review!
Something tells me they are going to eventually discontinue this model, since all they show on RUclips is the GX😟.
I have no idea why this still exists when the GX is better and costs about the same.
It seems that the "regular" Encore will discontinue in 2023.
@aiden roose~ 😒
I was really interested in Buick, but Wow the back seat is way less space than a 2017 Kia Soul.
I used to think I'd get one of these as my next budget friendly car, but I went with the Corolla XSE preowned. It has great legroom, and these have less space inside.
Rebadged Opel/Vauxhall Mokka. Here in North America and China it’s the Encore and Chevrolet Trax. Down under it’s the Holden Trax.
I wish you would go over price I'm in the market and I like your reviews 👍
I put a link in the description for pricing, so dealers will let me keep driving cars. And thank you!

You will want something higher.

I have the 2019 sport touring package Encore. I live in Wisconsin we get snow I had no problem
It's high. I love it. I live in Cleveland. It goes through everything with ease.
How much horsepower and torque?
How many forward gears? CVT?
I thought these only had 1.2 or 1.3 liter engines. Why does this get a 1.4? Or did you misspeak?
6 speed auto and 1.4. Encore GX comes with 1.2/1.3
She’s a beauty

The headrest in back seem a bit odd, just like the ones in the Chevrolet Spark🙃

I’m thinking to buy 2021 Buick, I don’t know about the car that much. Somebody please give me advice!!!

Yes , it does.
Can you do a karma? They are awesome.
My 2016 buick encore engine went out at 60,000
Would it be difficult for my 71 year old mother to get in and out of??
No, they sit higher than a sedan so entrance/exit is easy. If she's really short closing the rear hatch will require tiptoes.
@@BarryWilkinson thanks for the comment
@@BarryWilkinson thanks for the comment
@@christopherhasse7183 You're welcome
Hey can you do a video on the new Chevy or gmc cargo van if u want to of corse
Will try to, thanks for the request.
Is this car worth the test drive?
If that’s what you’re into. Not really my speed, but an easy to drive car, easy to get in and out of, decent gas mileage, and adequate acceleration.
reveal All New 2023 Buick Encore
It is a nice vehicle .....a bit small & I feel overpriced😬
A 1.4 4 banger mouse wheel engine
does it have heated seats? steering wheel?
This one does not, but they are options in the higher trim levels.
@@NothinButCarReviews just bought the 2021 buick encore gx sports trim....so nice!!
Thought they have a 3 cylinder engine.
Encore GX and Trailblazer do.
@@NothinButCarReviews thanks.
Can these rims fit in a 08 Buick Lucerne?
Not sure
Jesus is our savior!
ok
9 speed automatic or 6
6-speed automatic
It’s a fast car ? Good for travel ?
This car is mine
6 speed ? 9 speed I thought
No, 6 speed. 😕
@@NothinButCarReviews but the website says 9
Please get rid of the ugly Cream interior! What is with that? auto liftgate?? looks like nothing has changed since 2018.
i have the 2014le
Nice car but no auto closing trunk
Check out the Encore GX it has a automatic trunk closure.I have the GX and love it.2020

In 2021 Encore it’s still offered.
