My girl got this... and lovessssss it. She wanted little more premium, and quiet drive ( she gets migraines) so this car was a perfect fit. It has a presence of a bigger suv. More envision then encore.
It actually is not very quiet. Did you test drive Equinox or Terrain before Encore? Both much more refined and quieter inside for the same price. Encore GX has no large SUV presence, rather the opposite, it feels like a lifted hatchback, especially when taking turns. It feels like it will flip over.
@@00_UU you're right. My sister has an Encore and I know how quiet that is compared to the new GX which I test drove. The turbo definitely howls. For the spendier $30K+ price trim (that's the sale discounted price from closer to $40K), I crossed it off my list. The seats were narrow and not very deep and I'm a woman! Can't imagine a guy in it. Wasn't impressed. Terrain & Equinox have great smooth rides, better HP, unfortunately the Chevy paint job is HORRIBLE. Looked at several Chevy lots, all had surface scratches in top coat and trim was scratched. I've owned a lot of Chevys but the paint is pretty bad now. GMC and Buick have great paint jobs.
@@00_UU They aren't the same price. Lots of folks do not want to drive around the larger vehicle -- which is why this class exists. The Chevy has a low rent interior and is louder. Unstable? Proof? If you want a larger vehicle, Buick shoppers are going to go with the Envision.
Dirk Diggler proof is me having Encore GX 1.2 and then GX 1.3 as loaners. Then I had Equinox and Terrain as loaners. Go test drive them to get the proof you need.
I bought the 2020 top trim in December and o absolutely love my car. I don’t have any issues with power at all, probably thanks to the turbo. It gets up to speed just fine and I tend to average about 85 mph for longer stretches on the highway. I never feel nervous merging on. All the safety features work great! The 360 cameras are amazing but I could have done without the self parking as I have not even needed to use it with the 360 cameras. I’ve averaged about 24 mpg city driving (DC). Very smooth ride and feels premium. I have the 9 speed automatic so cannot speak for the CVT numbers. This was my first new car purchase and I am beyond pleased. I was between this and the Kia Seltos but chose this because it looks and feels more premium and came with the 360 cameras. The rear view camera is amazing too! I suggest this for anyone wanting something small and premium and isn’t too obsessed with “power”. Again this has more than enough power for the average person. Edited to add: the auto-lift trunk feature is tricky. I’m still trying to figure out where exactly to put my foot LOL probably user error though. It’s easier when the Buick emblem is lit at night so I can see it.
Encore's are so popular b/c they're easy to get financed for. They're always on discount so it's easy to roll negative equity into. People will come to look at a used car but can't get approved but will often be approved for an encore.
I took a lengthy solo test drive couple of months ago and let’s just say I was very impressed with vehicle itself. The door definitely has some heft to it and closes with a solid feel. It has great drive ability and handles well for day to day driving and able to get out of the way very quickly on merging into fast moving traffic. The model I test drove was the Select trim with ST package along with advanced technology package.
1_UW it was the 1.3 and it was just a front wheel drive model not AWD. For turning, I never felt that it was going to flip over. I had even taken some decently hard turns but nothing too crazy and it handles well. I was also quite surprised on how well the engine is muted for a 1.3 3 cylinder. Of course you are going to hear the engine during full throttles but, it does not sound harsh. Actually the powertrain is more refined compared to even bigger crossovers like the CRV and the RAV4
Just got one of these for my daughter primarily but also for my wife to use on occasion. Got the loaded ST-trim Essence AWD. My daughter had a regular Encore before and wanted something a little nicer and only slightly larger. This fits the bill. The 1.3 3-cylinder might not seem like enough power but it has 174 ft-lbs of torque at very low RPM that makes it feel lively around town. Quality seems very good and it is completely laded with modern tech and features. Good LED lights, wireless CarPlay and AA, comfy leather seats, HUD, ACC, pano roof, good sound system, full safety suite, 9-speed auto with selectable AWD. My only complaint is it can get pricey but with Buick incentives this completely loaded model was low 30s. I would love to see a proper ST/GS (STx, STr?) version. Make it AWD only with the 9-speed auto and the 2.0T. Give it a minor wheel/tire upgrade and tune the suspension a bit. It would be a fun, and proper hot-hatch competitor and capture some more of the younger attention.
I just can't imagine why someone would even walk on a Buick lot for this over the Japanese and Korean competition. And at $34,000, that's just absurd! As usual, great review though.
Scott Lynch There are a lot of people that are not well educated. Buick isn’t even a luxury brand. I’d rather have a base Telluride or spend a few k more for a base Highlander. The RAV4 XLE premium is actually less expensive.
Many people have brand loyalty. If someone ends up making more money from a promotion its much easier for them to go from a Chevy to a Buick. Then a Chevy to a Honda
The Buick Encore GX and Chevy Trailblazer will be the #1 seller in this segment as they offer best combination of design/features/functionality. You need to understand there is something called trim levels, and if you want a fully loaded model it will be up to 34 thousand before discounts. Lots of people will purchase between 26-28 thousand.
@@user-tb7rn1il3q Why Telluride? Because people think its cool and you want to look cool? LOL. People in market for this car don't need big suvs and want good fuel economy. Also they have good lease deals on these as not many will finance them.
I've had mine just over a month, love the little thing. I liked the interior as well as the looks. I've been getting 43 mpg on the highway, 38 mpg average with city driving. I'm big, it comfortable to drive, plenty of room for big men. Glad I got mine, same bright red.
@@KennyPang Mine's the GX one step down from full all the gadgets. What surprises me is going on a freeway, there's no sign of lack of power with the three cylinder engine. Winter, when we had the ice storms, I got around just fine, it has nine (9) low end gears, add to that the AWD, ice is not even a worry. My gas mileage is still averaging 30-32 miles per gallon city and highway. Nothing to complain about so far.
That is full MSRP and if you pay it for a poor retention Mazda before looking at a Buick with 15-25% off MSRP you deserve to have your bank account drained.
No one will ever pay MSRP on a Buick, unless they are crazy. I would expect easy 20% discount or more. Mazda is nicer, but Buick has more room up front with open dash layout. I test drove new CX-5 and I had new Encore GX is a loaner. Mazda drives better, but Encore GX is much more comfortable inside.
A 3-cylinder turbo with a CVT transmission from GM? You'd be much better off with a compact utility from KIA or Hyundai with their 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
I've been hearing reviewers for the past decade saying "i wasn't expecting to be impressed, but this impresses me..." ya ya ya etc etc. When are they going to realize GM makes a great vehicle?
I've driven GMs (Buick, Chevy, Olds, Pontaic) my whole life, this underwhelmed me test driving it and the seat is so uncomfortably small and thin. Was going to buy it and waited for it but passed. Sis has an Encore full loaded. It has a better interior, I like the exterior of the GX though.
One of my friends has it and trust me it's a reliable vehicle. Buick has nailed it in the recent times. However, the issues that GM is facing is that people are going for small. regular and big SUV's and their line of pick ups are rotting as RAM is dominating the market in lieu of pick ups.
Soyfan, your expectations were very low. That's why you kinda liked it. That thing is expensive. Mazda and Hyundai/Kia are on a different league. Plus, it's a GM. With a CVT and a 3 cylinder engine.
I'd trust a GM-designed CVT than any Nissan CVT lol. But my wife loves these and they are pretty much the same price as everything else in its segment unless you load it up with every option. The Kia to me is in a lower league but I do think the Mazda is the best in class.
@@corionh4775 you're a tad behind the times. Hyundai/Kia group is top notch today. GM makes decent V8 and V6. The rest is not good. Plus, their products are horribly put together, designed and executed.
Barry Goldwasser you are a tad behind. GM engines are great. I have 2.0T in my 2018 Regal, it is the best engine I ever had and I used to drive only new Acuras.
@@barrygoldwasser5449 this is near-luxury not economy brand like H/K and the Japanese. H/K has come a long way since bargain basement, shit-box economy car days but is not near luxury in this segment.
After several months of looking at several small crossovers - including the Escape, the CR-V, the Cherokee and Renegade, the Envision, and the Mazda CX-5, my wife ended up really falling for this little bugger and drove one home. It's small (it's 181 inches long, one in longer than my Boxster), has a small wheelbase and turning radius, and is a breeze to park in a parking ramp. She has the package with the parking features, including a great birds-eye view and backup camera as well as the self-parking capability. I drove it for a day, and after spending time with it, I actually fell for it too. I was looking to downsize and get something quiet and comfortable for commuting, and ended up getting one for myself. Don't sleep on Buick!
They sold 100k of the old encore apparently so someone is buying it. It is probably much less than 34k so it occupies a different space. It won’t be discontinued but how unusual to use the same name
The problem with all GM products is that you can always see where they cheap out on the exterior and interior. (Like with most Car manufacturers), but for me it always looks and feels cheaper than other companies.
Standard GM fare. It is blatantly obvious the second the door opens how inferior this interior is materials-wise to anything the Koreans, Japanese, or Germans offer.
I disagree. I just switched from GM to Honda and I found their interiors to not be any better. Yes the interiors are stylish but going from a 2011 Cruze to a 2020 Civic I found where Honda cut corners. A glove box that isn’t damped, passenger front seat is only 2 way adjustable, rear seats is hard touch plastic everywhere, A TPMS that will not tell you specifically which wheel is losing pressure. Makes me wonder why people jump on GM so much. Away from that I still enjoy the vehicle because of its ergonomics and the performance
@@terrencebenjamin7241 I'm certainly not a GM hater in any way, but I think I give Honda the benefit of the doubt because their fit and finish is much better and longevity of their cars remains very high. I'm sure that why you went with a new civic versus another chevy.
@@encino78 no. I went to the Civic because Chevy doesn’t make the Cruze anymore and whatever else Chevy offers were too small or out of my price range currently. The Civic wasn’t even my first choice. The fit and finish of the GM vehicles from my owning one was pretty good. Now going to the civic which is my first Honda, I don’t see anything special with it’s interior quality. Also noticed a lot of road noise, which i got used to. But it’s still A stylish interior and it drew me. The thing is the quality of the plastics used in GM cars that give them a bad rap I constantly have seen in other cars with similar fit and finish and they get away with calls of “high quality”. It leaves me scratching my head.
I have a GX with the AWD and the preferred package. With the 1.3 and the 9-speed, I usually get an MPG of low 30's mixed city driving, even though it's rated 26-29, which is awesome, especially being in the northeast!! I believe you also forgot to mention that the passenger seat can fully fold forward for more room or use as a mini work-station table. Other key differences is having no power tailgate (no button on the remote either which I kind of want to have), manual climate but still have the heated seats, intellelink doesn't have navigation or multiple users (but can support multiple phones connected at the same time), no heads up display (but red lights that blink in that spot if anti-collision alert starts), different rims, no AC power outlet (which I want). As for me, it doesn't have everything, but I don't need everything, and it's a good size for me and what I need right now.
Great review, pretty much the only objective and non-biased one I’ve seen! I’ve owned a 2021 GX since April 2021 and I love it. 10,000 miles in - owned a 2019 Tiguan / 2019 Santa Fe previously, ask me anything! This car gets a lot of hate for 0 reason. Good handling, fun off the line and plenty of power for merging, no CVT for me, awd, and I paid 21,9 before the chip shortage, because nobody pays sticker for GM (well maybe now…)
CX-30 is on my list and I'm open to this. Wish it had a more conventional drivetrain. Nice choice of colors and interiors though. Basically looking for the quietest more comfy small SUV under $30k.
@@normt430 did you drive Encore GX? It is very loud compared to our Regal and interior looks similar, but way cheaper materials vs our Regal, while it costs the same money. Just non-sense. But Encore GX is much more spacious inside than Mazda CX-5 or CX-30.
@@00_UU We had a TourX for a little over a year. Currently have a CT6 which is much louder than our old TourX. Most SUVs by their taller nature let in more noise than sedan styles. If you drive a Lexus UX with 2.5l 4-cylinder you see it is even louder than the Encore GX. In the segment Buick Quiet Tuning is about thr best for the price.
A 155hp 3 cylinder with a cvt for over $30k? I really hope the average american buyer isn't stupid enough to buy this thing. The interior was covered in cheap piano black plastic too.
I think China is the only thing keeping Buick afloat right now. If it weren't for China, the brand would have died off long ago. Their products are so sub-par, just like Cadillac's.
jink right lol. I went to look at some a few weeks ago.....looked at the sticker, laughed and walked away. That was before hubby even told me it was a 3 cylinder😏
After test driving the cx30 and Honda hrv I decided on this one. It fit my needs the best. Was able to get the essence trim loaded for $30k (w/my trade). So far I love it and am very happy with my choice. It’s plenty fast fast enough for me and the tech is really well thought out and useful. It’s the perfect size for the city.
No this is not, this is made after the divorce of Opel and GM. This is originally a crossover for the Chinese market that was later made in Korea for export to the USA. The Grandland and every PSA product are FWD only.
@@ProBenja5 It's the same shape, interior a copy etc. Only some different grill and lights. When GM owned Opel this car was probably already in development.
I drove one for 2 weeks while my encore st was in body shop. Goose the 3cyl for on ramp acceleration and it sounds like a bag of hornets. The cvt was unnerving but serviceable.
Next up for Buick: 800cc twin turbo charged inline 3 engine with a CVT Edit: Actually, more like: 500cc quad turbocharged inline 2 cylinder engine with a CVT
I really wanted to like this car. Changes that would get me to buy it: 1. Hybrid engine. 2. Lane centering assist. 3. Cooled seats. 4. Wireless android auto. 5. Bigger infotainment screen. 6. Digital dash.
I have fallen in love with the Kia Seltos over the last year . . . and then, over the last month or so, I've discover the Encore GX. It may be the best looking sub-compact/compact CUV out there and the interior is very attractive. The 1.3 seems to be the only way to go, and I would have to drive the CVT and the 9A back to back to get a feel for which I would like (and as a general CVT 'hater', I am shocked to be saying that) . . . thanx for the clear and complete video, Sofyan. Not buying soon, but I will watch the developing story of the Buick Encore GX with great interest! p.s.: Hey, Buick . . . how about colour-coding the plastic pieces in the wheels with the colour of the car. Just sayin, it would look cool!
I'm renting one and I'm planning to own one because it's so good I didn't know that I needed in my life. But I am dead serious though it's a good crossover.
I don't understand how and why shows like Motoring TV are still on the air when this is on UA-cam. Your reviews are always in very good depth, and you know other cars, and can give good comparisons. Meanwhile on MTV they take cars through a slalom in a parking lot, and not much else. No word of a lie. Isn't there a TV market for this?
Wife loves these, just showed her this review and we'll probably be picking one up in a week or so... She likes these little things for some reason lol. I actually think the Mazda looks cooler but she didn't like the ride when we test drove, and she thought the Kia Seltos was ugly so we never even went to check one out. Might show her the Honda HRV but I think the Buick looks better and will probably be a better deal price-wise.
Great stuff man!!, I bet you can't wait to get your hands on the all new 2021 next gen Envision, that model is a galaxy above anything Buick has made and can really be a high end, premium vehicle and shows where Buick can be heading down the road in terms of high end nature.
This car is literally using the same power train as a washing machine. I need to get my Bingo card ready for the issues the 3 cylinder will be recalled for.
Just purchased one of these for my mother. Very nice size and features for the money ... including heavy GM discounts, mind you. A unique size at 171 inches, we needed something in that range because of her small garage and this has excellent space including the fold down passenger seat. Very nice power liftgate and easy to use infotainment along with dual climate and a pano. Don't denigrate the 3 cylinder until you try it, the 1.3L is surprisingly up to the challenge without sacrificing reduced interior db. It was my greatest concern about this vehicle and the test drive proved it wasn't an issue. Interior quality and comfort is much better than the Korean competition we saw and even a little better than the Mazda ... on par with Subaru.
No chance of that. Especially the Mazda products. They look and feel premium, luxury like. No way the Buick is on par with Mazda. Now, Hyundai/Kia is way above Buick in quality, design, execution, reliability, etc.
@@barrygoldwasser5449 YMMV, I drove a Grand Touring Reserve and thought the Buick was a little bit nicer (dashboard, armrest,) and preferred the infotainment integrated into the dashboard rather than that pop-out tablet design. Mazda was definitely better than Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan.
smh. The thing I hate the most about crossovers is that they have these weak engines with less than 200hp just to get 20s mpg, meaning the worst of both worlds. Meanwhile my buick sedan, a 2013 verano turbo, would destroy this thing in a race going half throttle and I still get the same mpg, if not better😂
First car I ever owned close to 35 years ago was a Buick. Those repair bills weren't erased until I finally went bankrupt in 96. Now older and a lot wiser many years later, I have an 850 FICO and drive a Q5. Between the 2015 Q3 and 2018 Q5 I've put exactly one set of tires. You won't see me driving GM. Hard lessons were learned early on when it comes to quality.
15:44 I'm pretty sure they will do just that. All previous rebadged Opel vehicles will go away due to GM selling off Opel in 2017. The Regal is the Insignia which just got refreshed, so no more Regal. The Cascada was the Opel Cascada, so no more of that. The original Encore is the Opel Mokka. That will have a full redesign for the next model year, so the Encore should be gone soon too. GM brought out this GX based off the Trailblazer in order to keep the Encore name going. I just wish they were able to put the base engine from the Envision in this as an option, or even standard on the ST trim. In the Envision, it gets 197hp. There needs to be something else better than the Trailblazer in this Buick. Plus, all the exterior lights should be led, especially on the ST trim!
@F L Oh we do pay way to much for cars here. And you're absolutely correct. For example the Trackhawk cost nearly $145,000AUD ($105,000) for us but you pay $120,000AUD ($87,500). Funny part is most of that is tax that goes to the Gov, so thats always fun. Shame we don't build our own cars anymore, which were often better equiped for the price.
Grabbed the copper colored one! It’s very nice watch out the “extras” don’t come so standard. No power lift gate, no parking tech package, no Boss or special rear mirror even when you pay for the Essence package.
It's got potential. I would like to see them put a more performance-oriented power train in it. But, I would agree, it's a good offering from GM with room for improvement.
I agree. The LTG 2.0t or even the new LSY 2.0t would probably make this a fun little car to drive. It does have potential, they just need some spiced up performance. It probably won't sell well but it could bring people into the dealership. Giving the rest of their lineup exposure, whether they pay more or less for another model.
It looks nice on the outside. But the interior is meh, and it's a 3 cylinder? I'm good. They easily could put a four cylinder without a turbo/supercharger and it would do well.
facts. I think they do it for better mpg, but a weak 3 cylinder with a turbo the size of my hand would have to work so much harder to accelerate compared to a 4 cylinder or a v6, so the mpg goes back down. My 2013 verano turbo would destroy this thing in a race without trying and I still get the same mpg, if not better
Can anyone confirm that the dreaded auto stop/start feature on this GX is actually OFF by default, but can be turned ON if the driver wants to get slightly better mpg? A reviewer of the sister vehicle (Chevy Trailblazer with same engine/CVT) said that it is OFF by default (the way all newer vehicles should offer it).
The Chevy Trailblazer is barely less expensive when you factor in the incentives. The Buick is bound to be the better value, just from interior trim and sound deadening point of view
True, however, I wouldn't go with a stripped out Buick. The stripped out trailblazer is better. The fully loaded Encore GX is a better buy over fully loaded Trailblazer.
There is absolutely no reason why any manufacturer is producing a three cylinder engine in 2020!!!!!!! This will inevitably experience reliability issues. These manufacturers should be spending that R&D money on expanding their four cylinder engines. Initially, the three cylinder may feel adequate, but it will eventually experience wear and tear issues. Too small of an engine. Nice Buick, but where’s the 2.0 liter four cylinder engine!!!!! Another missed opportunity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Instead of selling 200,000 to 300,000 units, they’ll struggle to sell 100,000 units. Wake up!!!!!!!!!!!!
bro my dad did scouting for me bc i was in a market for a car n i jsut bought this exact one. i got it 10 grand off so it was only 24 instead of 34 bc it had 1k miles on it.... so far im super impressed and did my research n knew i wasnt getting a better deal!
I just bought a 2020 Mercedes GLE 450 for nearly $81,000. And after watching this review, I wonder even more why does Mercedes make me pay for things like a 360 degree camera and lane keep assist when this car gives it to you for way less than half the price.
I hate that companies are canceling sedans some people still want sedans and while American companies are stopping sedans foreign companies are doing good with sedan sales

@@user-tb7rn1il3q Why Telluride? Because people think its cool and you want to look cool? LOL. People in market for this car don't need big suvs and want good fuel economy. Also they have good lease deals on these as not many will finance them.
I've had mine just over a month, love the little thing. I liked the interior as well as the looks. I've been getting 43 mpg on the highway, 38 mpg average with city driving. I'm big, it comfortable to drive, plenty of room for big men. Glad I got mine, same bright red.
Which engine did you get? 43mpg is GREAT!
Which model do you have?
I’m thinking about the awd model.
@@KennyPang Mine's the GX one step down from full all the gadgets. What surprises me is going on a freeway, there's no sign of lack of power with the three cylinder engine. Winter, when we had the ice storms, I got around just fine, it has nine (9) low end gears, add to that the AWD, ice is not even a worry. My gas mileage is still averaging 30-32 miles per gallon city and highway. Nothing to complain about so far.
@@jamesberwick2210 Thank you!
$34,000? Add the sunroof package and 4 wheel drive and your the same price as a Mazda CX-5 Turbo models. A much, much nicer car.
Yup! Sadly, some buyers wants an American brand..
That is full MSRP and if you pay it for a poor retention Mazda before looking at a Buick with 15-25% off MSRP you deserve to have your bank account drained.
No one will ever pay MSRP on a Buick, unless they are crazy. I would expect easy 20% discount or more. Mazda is nicer, but Buick has more room up front with open dash layout. I test drove new CX-5 and I had new Encore GX is a loaner. Mazda drives better, but Encore GX is much more comfortable inside.
@@00_UU In China you only need to pay ~18000USD for the GX. 1.3T+CVT included everything like panoramic sunroof
@Jonathan Losito No, it's not. Comparable equipped, the Crosstrek is more expensive. Huge discounts on the Encore GX.
A 3-cylinder turbo with a CVT transmission from GM? You'd be much better off with a compact utility from KIA or Hyundai with their 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
Exactly what i was thinking
Or the Toyota CHR
Yet 1.3 is OK, 1.2 is horrible. I had both as loaners for a few days. But again for the same price GMC Terrain is a much better choice.
I Love my new Encore GX..
I've been hearing reviewers for the past decade saying "i wasn't expecting to be impressed, but this impresses me..." ya ya ya etc etc. When are they going to realize GM makes a great vehicle?
I've driven GMs (Buick, Chevy, Olds, Pontaic) my whole life, this underwhelmed me test driving it and the seat is so uncomfortably small and thin. Was going to buy it and waited for it but passed. Sis has an Encore full loaded. It has a better interior, I like the exterior of the GX though.
GM's past sins continue to haunt them to this day.
My inner elderly woman is going crazy for this!
1.2L 3 cylinder turbo with a CVT transmission.......yeah, these will be invading junkyards within 5 years
Bill B. Will be in the salvage crusher.
I give it three years🙄
Dexter Smith Right? Lol
One of my friends has it and trust me it's a reliable vehicle. Buick has nailed it in the recent times. However, the issues that GM is facing is that people are going for small. regular and big SUV's and their line of pick ups are rotting as RAM is dominating the market in lieu of pick ups.
I just purchased the Encore GX ST on Saturday and I really like it!
How do you like the Encore GX?
I have money down for a fwd Trailblazer that supposed to arrive soon.
Soyfan, your expectations were very low. That's why you kinda liked it.
That thing is expensive.
Mazda and Hyundai/Kia are on a different league.
Plus, it's a GM. With a CVT and a 3 cylinder engine.
I'd trust a GM-designed CVT than any Nissan CVT lol. But my wife loves these and they are pretty much the same price as everything else in its segment unless you load it up with every option. The Kia to me is in a lower league but I do think the Mazda is the best in class.
@@corionh4775 you're a tad behind the times. Hyundai/Kia group is top notch today. GM makes decent V8 and V6. The rest is not good. Plus, their products are horribly put together, designed and executed.
Barry Goldwasser you are a tad behind. GM engines are great. I have 2.0T in my 2018 Regal, it is the best engine I ever had and I used to drive only new Acuras.
@@barrygoldwasser5449 this is near-luxury not economy brand like H/K and the Japanese. H/K has come a long way since bargain basement, shit-box economy car days but is not near luxury in this segment.
Kahtami I am sure nothing will change, but if I remember about this comment I will update. 32,000 miles so far and engine/transmission are very solid.
After several months of looking at several small crossovers - including the Escape, the CR-V, the Cherokee and Renegade, the Envision, and the Mazda CX-5, my wife ended up really falling for this little bugger and drove one home. It's small (it's 181 inches long, one in longer than my Boxster), has a small wheelbase and turning radius, and is a breeze to park in a parking ramp. She has the package with the parking features, including a great birds-eye view and backup camera as well as the self-parking capability.
I drove it for a day, and after spending time with it, I actually fell for it too. I was looking to downsize and get something quiet and comfortable for commuting, and ended up getting one for myself. Don't sleep on Buick!
Love that two tone so elegant 😍 looking
Buick should’ve definitely called this model “Rainier”
I’d just discontinue the encore and just offer the encore GX. Put in a 2.0 liter turbo and 10 speed auto and name it the Encore GX Grand National.
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
No crossover is worthy of the Grand National name. Even if this is a joke, I'm still getting this out there.
People like you would probably buy the Eclipse Cross
@@carsaregood911 ugh, that thing looks like what would happen if the Pontiac Aztek got surgery to make it look even worse.
They sold 100k of the old encore apparently so someone is buying it. It is probably much less than 34k so it occupies a different space. It won’t be discontinued but how unusual to use the same name
@@DWK33 I'm pretty sure they sold around 100k *annually* so there is certainly demand.
The problem with all GM products is that you can always see where they cheap out on the exterior and interior. (Like with most Car manufacturers), but for me it always looks and feels cheaper than other companies.
Standard GM fare. It is blatantly obvious the second the door opens how inferior this interior is materials-wise to anything the Koreans, Japanese, or Germans offer.
I disagree. I just switched from GM to Honda and I found their interiors to not be any better. Yes the interiors are stylish but going from a 2011 Cruze to a 2020 Civic I found where Honda cut corners. A glove box that isn’t damped, passenger front seat is only 2 way adjustable, rear seats is hard touch plastic everywhere, A TPMS that will not tell you specifically which wheel is losing pressure. Makes me wonder why people jump on GM so much. Away from that I still enjoy the vehicle because of its ergonomics and the performance
@@terrencebenjamin7241 I'm certainly not a GM hater in any way, but I think I give Honda the benefit of the doubt because their fit and finish is much better and longevity of their cars remains very high. I'm sure that why you went with a new civic versus another chevy.
@@encino78 no. I went to the Civic because Chevy doesn’t make the Cruze anymore and whatever else Chevy offers were too small or out of my price range currently. The Civic wasn’t even my first choice. The fit and finish of the GM vehicles from my owning one was pretty good. Now going to the civic which is my first Honda, I don’t see anything special with it’s interior quality. Also noticed a lot of road noise, which i got used to. But it’s still A stylish interior and it drew me. The thing is the quality of the plastics used in GM cars that give them a bad rap I constantly have seen in other cars with similar fit and finish and they get away with calls of “high quality”. It leaves me scratching my head.
10:35 27/30 mpg? One of those three cylinders has a drinking problem!
Sprague49 LOL!!!😂😂😂😂😂
I have a GX with the AWD and the preferred package. With the 1.3 and the 9-speed, I usually get an MPG of low 30's mixed city driving, even though it's rated 26-29, which is awesome, especially being in the northeast!! I believe you also forgot to mention that the passenger seat can fully fold forward for more room or use as a mini work-station table. Other key differences is having no power tailgate (no button on the remote either which I kind of want to have), manual climate but still have the heated seats, intellelink doesn't have navigation or multiple users (but can support multiple phones connected at the same time), no heads up display (but red lights that blink in that spot if anti-collision alert starts), different rims, no AC power outlet (which I want). As for me, it doesn't have everything, but I don't need everything, and it's a good size for me and what I need right now.
Great review, pretty much the only objective and non-biased one I’ve seen! I’ve owned a 2021 GX since April 2021 and I love it. 10,000 miles in - owned a 2019 Tiguan / 2019 Santa Fe previously, ask me anything! This car gets a lot of hate for 0 reason. Good handling, fun off the line and plenty of power for merging, no CVT for me, awd, and I paid 21,9 before the chip shortage, because nobody pays sticker for GM (well maybe now…)
Thank you Buick for the integrated multimedia screen and the regular shifter!
Mighty bold choice in shorts, my friend.
Rockn them Short Shorts
Looking for 2021 envision. That car looks sharp.
Wouldn't pick it over the CX-30
CX-30 is on my list and I'm open to this. Wish it had a more conventional drivetrain. Nice choice of colors and interiors though. Basically looking for the quietest more comfy small SUV under $30k.
@@aca2983 CX-30 has the most traditional drivetrain in the segment! True auto trans with a naturally aspirated 4cyl
@@aca2983 the Buick Quiet Tuning is about as good as you can get for the price. Much quieter than our Cadillac CT6.
@@normt430 did you drive Encore GX? It is very loud compared to our Regal and interior looks similar, but way cheaper materials vs our Regal, while it costs the same money. Just non-sense. But Encore GX is much more spacious inside than Mazda CX-5 or CX-30.
@@00_UU We had a TourX for a little over a year. Currently have a CT6 which is much louder than our old TourX.
Most SUVs by their taller nature let in more noise than sedan styles. If you drive a Lexus UX with 2.5l 4-cylinder you see it is even louder than the Encore GX. In the segment Buick Quiet Tuning is about thr best for the price.
I think Cadillac should build also a version of this crossover. So they could also win new, young and especially european buyers to their brand ^^
A 155hp 3 cylinder with a cvt for over $30k? I really hope the average american buyer isn't stupid enough to buy this thing. The interior was covered in cheap piano black plastic too.
I think China is the only thing keeping Buick afloat right now. If it weren't for China, the brand would have died off long ago. Their products are so sub-par, just like Cadillac's.
jink right lol. I went to look at some a few weeks ago.....looked at the sticker, laughed and walked away. That was before hubby even told me it was a 3 cylinder😏
GM execs: “make Buick be more like Audi”
GM designers: “lets add faux exhaust”
Our TourX had fake exhaust trim too.
After test driving the cx30 and Honda hrv I decided on this one. It fit my needs the best. Was able to get the essence trim loaded for $30k (w/my trade). So far I love it and am very happy with my choice. It’s plenty fast fast enough for me and the tech is really well thought out and useful. It’s the perfect size for the city.
This is an Opel Grandland in Europe! And it sells like hot cakes over here.
Eventough Opel is now owned by Peugeot and we now have PSA engines.
Opel grandland has different light, grille etc but size and shape looks so same to grandland and some interior parts too.
GM rebadges alot of Opel's to sell here in america
No this is not, this is made after the divorce of Opel and GM. This is originally a crossover for the Chinese market that was later made in Korea for export to the USA. The Grandland and every PSA product are FWD only.
@@ProBenja5 It's the same shape, interior a copy etc. Only some different grill and lights. When GM owned Opel this car was probably already in development.
Anyway Granland looks the same
Outstanding review. Top notch super duper professionalism.
A 3 cylinder crossover with a CVT built by GM? Yeah... that's gonna be a no from me dawg...
😂😂😂😂
I drove one for 2 weeks while my encore st was in body shop. Goose the 3cyl for on ramp acceleration and it sounds like a bag of hornets. The cvt was unnerving but serviceable.
1.3 is OK, even with CVT, but AWD 9-speed would be a must. Encore GX makes no sense, since GMC Terrain is a much better deal for the same price.
Anything from GM is a no from me...
Next up for Buick: 800cc twin turbo charged inline 3 engine with a CVT
Edit: Actually, more like: 500cc quad turbocharged inline 2 cylinder engine with a CVT
I really wanted to like this car. Changes that would get me to buy it: 1. Hybrid engine. 2. Lane centering assist. 3. Cooled seats. 4. Wireless android auto. 5. Bigger infotainment screen. 6. Digital dash.
hybird? Blegh! nasty.
I have fallen in love with the Kia Seltos over the last year . . . and then, over the last month or so, I've discover the Encore GX. It may be the best looking sub-compact/compact CUV out there and the interior is very attractive. The 1.3 seems to be the only way to go, and I would have to drive the CVT and the 9A back to back to get a feel for which I would like (and as a general CVT 'hater', I am shocked to be saying that) . . . thanx for the clear and complete video, Sofyan.
Not buying soon, but I will watch the developing story of the Buick Encore GX with great interest!
p.s.: Hey, Buick . . . how about colour-coding the plastic pieces in the wheels with the colour of the car. Just sayin, it would look cool!
You are right ✅️ that would look cool 😎
I'm renting one and I'm planning to own one because it's so good I didn't know that I needed in my life. But I am dead serious though it's a good crossover.
Casual Audi R8 V10 in the background. Definitely more pleasant than this I'd imagine. 😎
I don't understand how and why shows like Motoring TV are still on the air when this is on UA-cam. Your reviews are always in very good depth, and you know other cars, and can give good comparisons. Meanwhile on MTV they take cars through a slalom in a parking lot, and not much else. No word of a lie.
Isn't there a TV market for this?
Everything buick makes is good looking and dependable.
Bro that Audi R8 just chilling in the background
Wife loves these, just showed her this review and we'll probably be picking one up in a week or so... She likes these little things for some reason lol. I actually think the Mazda looks cooler but she didn't like the ride when we test drove, and she thought the Kia Seltos was ugly so we never even went to check one out. Might show her the Honda HRV but I think the Buick looks better and will probably be a better deal price-wise.
Just make the turn signal LED too. This vehicle looks good tho
The EPA rating for the 1.3 FWD with CVT is 30 city 32 highway.
Great stuff man!!, I bet you can't wait to get your hands on the all new 2021 next gen Envision, that model is a galaxy above anything Buick has made and can really be a high end, premium vehicle and shows where Buick can be heading down the road in terms of high end nature.
This car is literally using the same power train as a washing machine. I need to get my Bingo card ready for the issues the 3 cylinder will be recalled for.
Mountain Life so BMW i8 is using the same power train as a washing machine? New Ford Escape is also 3 cylinders FYI
1_UW Don’t take someone seriously that compares an engine to a clothes washer.
Please learn to use the word “literally” properly.
It's the first time I see you get lot of surprises!!!Nice review man
Just purchased one of these for my mother. Very nice size and features for the money ... including heavy GM discounts, mind you. A unique size at 171 inches, we needed something in that range because of her small garage and this has excellent space including the fold down passenger seat. Very nice power liftgate and easy to use infotainment along with dual climate and a pano. Don't denigrate the 3 cylinder until you try it, the 1.3L is surprisingly up to the challenge without sacrificing reduced interior db. It was my greatest concern about this vehicle and the test drive proved it wasn't an issue. Interior quality and comfort is much better than the Korean competition we saw and even a little better than the Mazda ... on par with Subaru.
No chance of that. Especially the Mazda products. They look and feel premium, luxury like. No way the Buick is on par with Mazda.
Now, Hyundai/Kia is way above Buick in quality, design, execution, reliability, etc.
@@barrygoldwasser5449 YMMV, I drove a Grand Touring Reserve and thought the Buick was a little bit nicer (dashboard, armrest,) and preferred the infotainment integrated into the dashboard rather than that pop-out tablet design. Mazda was definitely better than Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan.
but brand wise. Mazda is viewed as Honda, toyota type of brand. Buick is above them.
Thank u so much I am really considering this vehicle and u helped out so much! Love ur reviews!
It's, "Excitement" would've been better with Pontiac badging... 🙄
I've always said GM should have ditched Buick and kept Pontiac
@@NorthCascades One would think they should've, after dropping the Oldsmobile brand! 👍
A three cylinder and it was getting 25 mpg????
smh. The thing I hate the most about crossovers is that they have these weak engines with less than 200hp just to get 20s mpg, meaning the worst of both worlds. Meanwhile my buick sedan, a 2013 verano turbo, would destroy this thing in a race going half throttle and I still get the same mpg, if not better😂
On the top package of the other encore was full LED lights. Sad they went backwards with this one
First car I ever owned close to 35 years ago was a Buick. Those repair bills weren't erased until I finally went bankrupt in 96. Now older and a lot wiser many years later, I have an 850 FICO and drive a Q5. Between the 2015 Q3 and 2018 Q5 I've put exactly one set of tires. You won't see me driving GM. Hard lessons were learned early on when it comes to quality.
Consumer Reports says Buick is now the most reliable brand.
15:44 I'm pretty sure they will do just that. All previous rebadged Opel vehicles will go away due to GM selling off Opel in 2017. The Regal is the Insignia which just got refreshed, so no more Regal. The Cascada was the Opel Cascada, so no more of that. The original Encore is the Opel Mokka. That will have a full redesign for the next model year, so the Encore should be gone soon too. GM brought out this GX based off the Trailblazer in order to keep the Encore name going.
I just wish they were able to put the base engine from the Envision in this as an option, or even standard on the ST trim. In the Envision, it gets 197hp. There needs to be something else better than the Trailblazer in this Buick. Plus, all the exterior lights should be led, especially on the ST trim!
Love that grill with the red accents. Wish more manufacturers would get more creative with accent colors like that.
I agree 👍 💯
What a beauty😍
I feel like the front end has a fair bit going on, but overall it does look rather nice. Wont see it here in Aus, but thats okay.
@F L Oh we do pay way to much for cars here. And you're absolutely correct. For example the Trackhawk cost nearly $145,000AUD ($105,000) for us but you pay $120,000AUD ($87,500). Funny part is most of that is tax that goes to the Gov, so thats always fun. Shame we don't build our own cars anymore, which were often better equiped for the price.
Fuel Economy is bad. I mean it’s a 1.3 come on lol.
Very bad indeed. I could not believe it. GMC Terrain is a much better choice for the same price.

A decent car. $10,000 too expensive.
Grabbed the copper colored one! It’s very nice watch out the “extras” don’t come so standard. No power lift gate, no parking tech package, no Boss or special rear mirror even when you pay for the Essence package.
I have the 2020 essence trim and have all these options...
It's got potential. I would like to see them put a more performance-oriented power train in it. But, I would agree, it's a good offering from GM with room for improvement.
I agree. The LTG 2.0t or even the new LSY 2.0t would probably make this a fun little car to drive. It does have potential, they just need some spiced up performance. It probably won't sell well but it could bring people into the dealership. Giving the rest of their lineup exposure, whether they pay more or less for another model.
If I wanted a car made in Korea I’d just get a Kia/Hyundai. Shame to have this under the Buick badge.
It looks nice on the outside. But the interior is meh, and it's a 3 cylinder? I'm good. They easily could put a four cylinder without a turbo/supercharger and it would do well.
facts. I think they do it for better mpg, but a weak 3 cylinder with a turbo the size of my hand would have to work so much harder to accelerate compared to a 4 cylinder or a v6, so the mpg goes back down. My 2013 verano turbo would destroy this thing in a race without trying and I still get the same mpg, if not better
@@deondre294 That Verano was pretty damn quick!
that r8 in the background :drool:
riff raff left his sunglasses in the hatch
How do you decide the order of reviews and releases? The R8 review video in the background was released like a week or two ago...
Can anyone confirm that the dreaded auto stop/start feature on this GX is actually OFF by default, but can be turned ON if the driver wants to get slightly better mpg? A reviewer of the sister vehicle (Chevy Trailblazer with same engine/CVT) said that it is OFF by default (the way all newer vehicles should offer it).
Love this car!
Funny thing, the korean spec trailblazer actually has cooled seats too, and those empty buttons are actually where they go
for the same price you can buy a Camry 3.5 L V6 with 300 HP ?
Which is also roomier, faster, more fuel efficient, actually reliable, and will hold its value.

@@VaunShiz that´s right bro.
@@mattspeer01 yeap bro. i think the same.
The Chevy Trailblazer is barely less expensive when you factor in the incentives. The Buick is bound to be the better value, just from interior trim and sound deadening point of view
True, however, I wouldn't go with a stripped out Buick. The stripped out trailblazer is better. The fully loaded Encore GX is a better buy over fully loaded Trailblazer.

Nice review as usual, I like this car, l’m putting it on my shopping list.
Please review the 2021 Buick Envision
There is absolutely no reason why any manufacturer is producing a three cylinder engine in 2020!!!!!!! This will inevitably experience reliability issues. These manufacturers should be spending that R&D money on expanding their four cylinder engines. Initially, the three cylinder may feel adequate, but it will eventually experience wear and tear issues. Too small of an engine. Nice Buick, but where’s the 2.0 liter four
cylinder engine!!!!! Another missed opportunity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Instead of selling 200,000 to 300,000 units, they’ll struggle to sell 100,000 units. Wake up!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wonder how long that engine will last 🤔
Ahhh ya know it’s not a bad looking suv.. I like it
bro my dad did scouting for me bc i was in a market for a car n i jsut bought this exact one. i got it 10 grand off so it was only 24 instead of 34 bc it had 1k miles on it.... so far im super impressed and did my research n knew i wasnt getting a better deal!
I just bought a 2020 Mercedes GLE 450 for nearly $81,000. And after watching this review, I wonder even more why does Mercedes make me pay for things like a 360 degree camera and lane keep assist when this car gives it to you for way less than half the price.
I wonder if the cvt would be faster than the 9sp being fwd.
When it accelerates, "It does not sound like trash".
It that supposed to be a compliment?
This just makes Buick look confused as an automaker. More disappointing than the new lexus IS reveal
At least this is new from Buick. The IS is the same old car from how long ago?
What is confusing about it? Small cute crossover for many girls to use as everyday commuter while charging premium prices. It is brilliant.

One question why does the horn go off every time you shut the doors?
It's a feature to remind you that the key is inside the car, or it locks itself when you walk away/close the door. You can change that feature.
Does that cost a lot like the fully loaded Encore. That's one cub I hate because of the price , it's not worth the money.
