Miles Overview
The 2019 Buick Encore is a subcompact luxury SUV that slots below the compact Envision in Buick's crossover lineup. It competes with the Mazda CX-3, Honda HR-V, and Chevrolet Trax, offering a quieter cabin and more premium feel. The Encore's turbocharged engine feels eager around town, though it is not quick on the highway. Its ride is smooth and well-controlled for the class, with a composed feel over most surfaces. The cabin is surprisingly upscale for a subcompact, with soft-touch materials and a high seating position that aids visibility. The Essence is the top trim, so you get leather upholstery and a heated steering wheel that the Sport Touring does not offer. Under the hood is the same 1.4L I4 making 138 horsepower and 148 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. The Essence also adds a Bose premium audio system that makes the quiet cabin sound even better.
