      by warren on 3/15/2026 11:18:55 PM

      Spent 45 years in the auto service and parts buisness at dealerships. Drove everything. Bought my 2023 St 2 plus years ago, have 41000kms, runs like a dream. Took a trip from Northern Alberta to Charlottetown pei in September, got as high as 5.9 l per 100 kms, in Ontario 90km zone for 3 hrs. Most amazing small vehicle I have ever driven

      A great, small SUV

      by Bob H on 2/10/2026 8:59:18 PM

      Overall a great, small SUV. 1.3L turbo engine is surprisingly responsive and gas mileage is great @ 26+ mpg just driving around town. Highway add 3 easily. Takes regular gas as well. Holds plenty of items for 2 people even if back seats are not folded down. Do that you are good to go! I am 6’2”, 190lbs and seating is comfortable. Still haven’t sat in passenger or rear but I am confident they are comfortable.

      Very happy with our 2024 Encore GX Cute Ute !!

      by TerryM on 5/14/2025 12:22:16 AM

      My wife and I are very pleased with our 2024 Encore GX purchased used w/ only 2500 mi on the clock. The Encore GX is one of the current Buick lineup of 3 small SUVs for about $25k; I suspect these hidden gems are unknown to many Americans. Unfortunately Buick's focus on China has resulted in the Buick brand being all but forgotten in the US. The NHTSA has given a ***** Overall Safety Rating to the 2024 GX. I have one negative with the Encore -- I'm 6'-1" and the Encore is small for me. Some call the cabin "surprisingly roomy" for a sub-compact suv. Truth be said IT'S JUST SMALL. Likes * 1.2L Turbo engine surprisingly strong in city driving * Entry-level luxury at a moderate price * Fun to drive (some call it boring) * Lots and lots and ... of safety features * Excellent mileage (30+ mpg) for an ICE SUV * Sits up high (as a SUV should!) due to 18" wheels * Quiet cabin due to Buick's QuietTuning technology * Heated seats, steering wheel, outside mirrors * Physical buttons/knobs for radio, climate controls -great * Power hatch/liftgate w/ kick plate - very handy * Traction & Stability control Dislikes * 1.2L Turbo engine is somewhat challenged on the highway * Design same-same as every other small SUV on the road * Seats are narrow, hard and uncomfortable * Road noise is worse than expected for a Buick * Small cargo area w/o rear seat backs down * Insufficient legroom in back seats * Insufficient rear headroom for tall persons * AM/FM/Satellite radio difficult to program * VERY sensitive brakes and accelerator

    * The advertised price does not include sales tax, vehicle registration fees, other fees required by law, finance charges and any documentation charges. A negotiable administration fee, up to $115, may be added to the price of the vehicle.

    * Images, prices, and options shown, including vehicle color, trim, options, pricing and other specifications are subject to availability, incentive offerings, current pricing and credit worthiness.
