Meeting my needs but could use a little boost in performance.***************************************

Comfort and sporty!

I love this car! The many features including safety, comfort, and technology impress me. I enjoy driving it and I love the look and size. Living in the city it's important to me that it isn't too big and I am able to find parking spots. The backup camera is very helpful also in the city for backing out of my garage and more. I love how comfortable the seats are and that the back ones fold down making it truly a utility vehicle too. I was able to pick up a door and it fit well in the back. I'm very pleased with this vehicle!

Looks sylish, great ride, feels like luxury!

We love the look and feel of our new Encore Essence! It's as if the engineers thought of everything, lots of features help make the drive fun, safe and reliable. The technology is remarkable, so helpful. The seats are really comfortable and make me smile! A friend exclaimed , " It's like getting a massage just sitting in the front seat!" We have used the fold down back seats to transport a new door purchased and driven home, no store delivery needed. Many valuable features, I've mentioned some but see for yourself- its an awesome all around vehicle! We're thrilled!

Most fun to drive and very comfortable I've owned.

I've wanted to down size for awhile. I was surprised how much room there was inside. I like all the technical upgrades. Mileage is 33 miles in mixed driving. I rides as good as my Enclave. It is peppy with the turbo . I love it.

Amazing Vehicle!

Perfect sized vehicle. Excellent trade up from an economy car. More room and comfort. Gas mileage has been even better than stated, have been getting 6.4 l/100km highway and 8.8 l/100km city with an AWD! The ride is just as smooth and quiet as my Dad's Cadillac Escalade. This vehicle fully loaded priced out better than others of comparable size.

Buick Encore

Love the styling, safety features and gas mileage! I've never owned a Buick before, but the manufacturer has really stepped up their game to offer attractive and affordable vehicles in the past several years.

Love it!

My Encore is so beautiful! The ride is smooth and very quiet! I've had Chevy's all my life but wanted to stay GM. Best decision ever! Love everything about the Buick Encore and King O'Rorke in Smithtown, NY.

Wonderful Car with Great Design

Loved the design to increase visibility out the front and side. Great gas mileage and the sale price helped us decide to purchase. Dealership at Roe Buick was wonderful and gave us a great deal.
