    SUBCOMPACT SUV

    Subcompact SUVs are a new vehicle category designed to give SUV lovers the roomy interior space you need along with a smaller, nimbler frame of a compact ride.
    They feature a high-seating position that helps you have an enhanced view of the road. You’ll also be treated to a flexible and roomy cargo space so that you can fit bags, luggage, and larger purchases with ease. Plus, due to the smaller size of these SUVs, you can also expect better fuel efficiency for an uninterrupted drive that has you cruising past the gas station.
    So, is a subcompact SUV right for you? That depends on your personal wants and needs when it comes to your next vehicle.

      2020 ENCORE GX PERFORMANCE SPECS

      Drivers will have some choices when it comes to engine power aboard the Buick Encore GX. This SUV is designed with a standard 1.2-liter ECOTEC turbo engine giving out up to 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque for a sleeker drive.
      Drivers eager to experience a bit more of a sporty experience have the option to equip the vehicle with a 1.3-liter ECOTEC turbo engine, which will bump the horsepower up to 155, as well as deliver 174 lb-ft of torque. Overall, if you’re looking for a ride that’ll be fun to take around the city, this vehicle has you covered.
      In addition to having a couple powertrain options, you can further customize your performance with a number of drivetrain options. Drivers using the standard front-wheel drive system will make use of a continuously variable transmission. This system uses a belt and pully system to create a spectrum of gear ratios.
      Drivers who want to upgrade to the available all-wheel drive (AWD) system will be provided with a 9-speed automatic transmission. This transmission offers plenty of gears, so you still enjoy a good distribution of engine power while having some solid traction. With AWD, you’ll also earn an EPA-estimated 26 MPG city and 29 MPG highway for an uninterrupted and smooth ride wherever you roam.

          ENCORE GX’S STYLISH INTERIOR

          The interior of the 2020 Buick Encore GX is designed to delight the eyes at every turn. Cloth seating with a sleek leatherette trim comes standard, but you also have a few upholstery options to help flex your personal style. For the ultimate in luxury, upgrade to Ebony leather seats with matching Ebony interior accents.
          An in-vehicle air ionizer keeps your premium cabin clean by ionizing particles in the air. They are then attracted to the surfaces nearby for easier removable and clean, fresh air throughout your commute.
          In addition to being pleasing to the eye, the interior of the Encore GX is built for comfort. A 10-way power driver seat with power lumbar is available to keep you supported and cozy as you jet around town.

This system will begin braking automatically if you don’t press the brakes, so you can mitigate or avoid an accident.

            This SUV will also likely feature a Blind Spot Warning to help keep you safe on multi-lane highways. If a car is in your blind spot, you’ll be kept in the know thanks to a light located conveniently on each side mirror.
