1st time Buick Owners

We love our new 2018 Buick Encore. We purchased the Premium edition and we love all of the extra features. It's even better than we expected.

Great car

WE bought this car due to the low price and great offers that Buick offered. I really enjoy the car. It is very responsive to I love the pick up. We drove a few other small SUV's and the pick up in this one was much better than the others. I like the style and it is very comfortable to me. I will point out a couple of things my wife does not really like. The passenger seat does not have any type of arm rest so she has to sit with her arms crossed most of the time. She also feels the seat it too narrow. I am 6'2" and I find the seat fine. But our other car is a large luxury car so that may explain the difference to my wife. It is a second car and I find it fun to drive. Not sure I would take it on a long drive but it is great for what we use it for.

Wonderful

This car has so many things that I was not use to. I am still learning what some things are for. The new safety features in cars now are extraordinary from backing up to changing lanes you get alerts. This is great. The comfort while driving and the seat adjustments I really love. I should have made this purchase awhile ago.

Beautiful Smooth and Compact

This car had everything I needed. It?s just the right size-roomy on the inside while having a compact appearance on the outside. I have always owned a small car and this vehicle is even easier to handle than the cars I?ve owned before. I would definitely recommend this car for anyone looking for something nice and safe. This car also has very modern features. Definitely take a look at this car before making your next vehicle purchase!
