Hyundai Kona and Honda HR-V are neck to neck in both aspects. The 2019 Subaru Crosstrek has managed to have both, better overall economy and a big fuel tank. We are grateful that at least the fuel tank capacity is acceptable at 14 gallons. It returns 25 MPG in the city and 30 MPG on the highway. Well, the 2019 Buick Encore is slightly behind in this area compared to rivals. You can change upholstery to make the car more comfortable, live without smartphone integration, but fuel economy cannot be compromised. This should be one of the most important concerns for you in this price range. Having the Encore Essence trim makes some sense as it has most of the features regarding comfort and convenience straight out of the factory, and the few remaining can be added. This is a very tricky situation actually. But for that, you would need to have Preferred trim at least. The 2019 Buick Encore in base trim is very basic, and you can option the vehicle out the way you want. Rain sensing wipers, genuine leather bucket seats, navigation, and advanced safety features are still optional.Ĩ.0-inch touchscreen with Android Auto & Apple CarPlayĦ-way power-adjustable driver seats with lumbar support It’s the Essence trim that takes this SUV to luxury areas as it comes equipped with power seats for the passenger and memory function for the driver seat. The Preferred trim doesn’t add anything substantial, but it makes you eligible to have optional extras. The base trim only has an FWD drive drivetrain option and comes with very basic features like keyless entry, heated mirrors, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay as standard. The rear seats are divided and fold down to provide additional cargo space if you need it.The 2019 Buick Encore comes in 4 trims 1SV, Preferred, Sport Touring, and Essence. This model did not come with seat or mirrors that automatically adjust depending upon the driver. The seats are comfortable and easy to adjust. If you purchase this vehicle, get an extra USB port for your phone and leave it plugged in. The vehicle has two USB ports that are a bit difficult to access. There are a few features I would have liked such as forward collision warning and a built-in remote for the garage door that were not available in the model I purchased. The ride is surprising smooth for a small car. The acceleration is not the best but the vehicle gets up to highway speed without much problem. If you are tall, I am 6'4", don't expect anyone to sit in the back seat behind you. The gas milage has been better than advertised in local traffic. The Buick Infosystem is easy to use especially if you have had another GM vehicle. The rear space is more than adequate for normal shopping. The car is surprising quiet for a small car. If you are looking for a small SUV, you should consider it. We recently purchased a new 2019 Encore Sport. I highly recommend this Encore to anyone seeking a quality subcompact SUV. It is definitely worth the slightly higher price. This Buick Encore is quiet and smooth and it feels much more like a luxury SUV. There were so many other SUV’s in this class that did not have the technology that this vehicle possesses. The infotainment system is very user friendly. I never thought that I would own a Buick, but I am truly glad that I made the choice to purchase the Encore. I found the engine to have more than ample power both in the city and on the highway. I read the “CON” of the vehicle was lack of power of the standard engine. I previously owned a Jeep Renegade and a Kia Soul, but neither of these two vehicles had the smooth ride and luxury feel of the interior that the Buick Encore possesses. The Encore is very nimble and handles well in most driving situations. This vehicle became a standout after I finished my research of the vehicles in this class. I am extremely impressed with the 2019 Buick Encore.
