Miles Overview
The Encore GX is Buick's subcompact crossover, sized between the smaller Encore and the Envision, and it's the one that feels more like a proper small SUV than a tall hatchback. It's a light, easy car to drive around town, with steering that's quick and a ride that stays composed on rough pavement. The cabin is genuinely upscale for the class, with soft-touch materials and a clean, simple dash that puts the touchscreen within easy reach. The rear seat fits two adults comfortably, and the cargo area is a useful size for a small family's weekly haul. Stepping up to Essence adds keyless entry, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and a larger touchscreen with navigation. This Essence pairs the 1.3L I3 with 155 horsepower, the nine-speed automatic, and all-wheel drive, making it feel more confident on wet or loose roads while returning 28 mpg combined. It's the only trim where you can get a hands-free power liftgate, which is handy when your arms are full of groceries.
