2023 Buick Encore GX

The 2023 Buick Encore GX is available in four trim levels: Preferred, Select, Essence, and Sport Touring. The Preferred showcases elegant lines and muscular curves and sits atop 18-inch aluminum wheels. The Select's wheels also measure 18 inches and have a machined finish with high-gloss Dark Android-painted pockets. On the Essence, you'll find LED headlights and taillights, while the Sport Touring gets a high-gloss black grille with red accents, bumpers with red accents, and ST badging. Captivating colors like White Frost, Sapphire, and Rosewood add the perfect finishing touch.

The 2023 Encore GX is as powerful as it is stylish. The base engine is a 1.2-liter EcoTec turbocharged four-cylinder capable of producing 137 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque. If you go with the Select, you can upgrade to a 1.3-liter EcoTec Turbo engine that generates 155 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. This engine comes standard in the Essence and Sport Touring and enables a 1,000-pound towing capacity.

Both engines in the Encore GX lineup pair with equally impressive performance components to deliver a first-class driving experience. You can equip your Encore GX with an agile front-wheel drive that makes it easy to zip around busy city streets or an all-wheel drive that maximizes traction in all sorts of challenging driving conditions. Front-wheel-drive models feature a continuously variable transmission, while all-wheel-drive models get a nine-speed automatic. Both transmissions seamlessly shift through gears for precise acceleration and sharp handling. Thanks to the Encore GX's 29 mpg highway rating, you can spend more time cruising the open road and less time at the fuel pump.

Inside the 2023 Encore GX, you'll find seating for five and a total cargo space measuring 50.2 cubic feet. The Encore GX's reconfigurable cargo floor gives you 2.7 inches of additional cargo height when you need to transport tall items. Available amenities include leather-appointed seats, a heated steering wheel, and an in-vehicle ionizer. You can also take advantage of wireless integration for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay so that you can stream music, get traffic updates, and send hands-free texts.

The 2023 Encore GX wouldn't be complete without its many safety features. A forward-collision alert will let you know if you're following the vehicle in front of you too closely and apply the brakes when necessary. If your Encore GX starts to drift, the lane-keep assist will help steer it back into place. IntelliBeam headlights automatically dim when they sense oncoming traffic so that your headlights don't blind other drivers. The Encore GX also offers adaptive cruise control, a rear-vision camera, and automatic parking assistance.
