2022 Buick Encore GX

The 2022 Encore GX's trim levels are Preferred, Select, and Essence. The Preferred trim is the essential luxury SUV, blending substantial proportions with elegant lines. Its aggressive yet graceful silhouette is accentuated by Bright Silver wheels measuring 18 inches, bold bumpers with Anderson Silver accents, and heated side mirrors. The Select's wheels also measure 18 inches and have a machined finish and Dark Android accents. On the Essence, you'll find a premium LED lighting group and dazzling chrome accents. Sapphire, Cinnabar, and Sunset Glow are just a few of the exquisite exterior colors you can choose from.

No matter what trim level you choose, you can count on your Encore GX to perform powerfully. Pop open the hood, and you'll find a 155-horsepower 1.3-liter EcoTec turbocharged engine that puts out 174 pound-feet of torque. When paired with Buick's available towing equipment, the engine gives the Encore GX a 1,000-pound towing capacity. The engine's innovative fuel-saving technology enables the Encore GX to achieve a 29 mpg highway rating.

The Encore GX teams up with incredible performance dynamics to deliver an exhilarating drive every time you take the wheel. The Preferred and Select trims come equipped with a nine-speed automatic transmission, while the Essences lets you take advantage of a continuous variable transmission. Both transmissions optimize engine output while providing precise acceleration and sharp handling. On wet or uneven roads, the Encore GX's StabiliTrak system minimizes traction loss, giving you maximum stability and control. Add the available intelligent all-wheel drive, and your Encore GX will have improved cornering, acceleration, and traction, even in the most challenging conditions.

Inside the Encore GX, you'll find seating for five and up to 50.2 cubic feet of cargo space. To accommodate taller items, you can lower the Encore GX's cargo floor for an extra 2.7 inches of cargo height. An oversize center console gives you plenty of space for personal items, and it's also the ideal armrest for you and your front-seat passenger. Available interior amenities include heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and dual-zone climate control. With the Buick Infotainment system, you can access playlists, get navigation assistance, and send hands-free texts.

Like every vehicle in the Buick lineup, the 2022 Encore GX gives you the safety features you need to drive with confidence. The forward-collision alert scans the road for hazards, applying the brakes as needed. If your Encore GX starts to drift, the lane-keeping assistance will help steer it back into place. You can also take advantage of a rearview camera, rear cross-traffic monitoring, and adaptive cruise control.
