KBB.com Review
Kbb.com Expert Rating
Looking to downsize but still want full-size luxury, comfort and amenities? The 2018 Buick Encore may be exactly what you’re looking for. Excellent fuel-economy figures and loads of high-tech options further bolster a case for this little Buick.
Though priced slightly higher than the Kia Soul, Hyundai Kona and Mazda CX-3, most will find the Encore delivers a lot of car for the money. Those needing maximum space in a small-crossover SUV will be happier shopping a Subaru Crosstrek, Honda CR-V or Jeep Compass.
