Fans of basic Buick panache will find plenty to favor in the new Encore, thanks to its combination of refinement and comfort complemented by a bounty of standard/available features, solid value orientation and outstanding fuel economy.
Some will find alternatives with more horsepower preferable to any potential fuel-economy gains the Encore has to offer. This new Buick’s lack of a tow rating also may be a deal breaker for those who demand a vehicle with light-duty trailering capabilities.
