You’ve heard of the Buick Encore and you’ve seen GM offer several models with the same name in the past, which brings us to the Buick Encore GX. It’s becoming more common in the SUV market for automakers to work on finding a build that straddles the line between subcompact and compact crossovers for your drive. The Buick Encore GX is supposed to be that for the Buick brand, but will it work?

A New Trick that’s Similar to What GM has Done Before

When Oldsmobile was part of the GM family, the Cutlass was offered with three different names. Unfortunately, this was looked at as an excess that didn’t survive the recession in 2008. This might be enough to make you wonder why GM would do something similar to Buick, but the Encore GX will be something completely different from the traditional Buick Encore.

The Buick Encore GX is the Same Size as the Chevrolet Trailblazer

You won’t find anything in the Buick Encore GX that makes it seem like an old-school Buick at all. This new Encore model is the right size for driving around town while being a little larger than its namesake. This means you’ll be more comfortable when you take the Encore GX out for a drive and enjoy what it has for you.

Adding Packages is Easy

The cabin of the Buick Encore GX is spacious and inviting. You can add items you want with the Experience Buick Package which adds a power moonroof and 18-inch wheels. The High-Gloss Convenience Package brings you automatic parking assist, wireless charging, a rear camera mirror, and rain-sensing wipers. The Advanced Technology Package adds a high-def surround-view camera, a head-up display, and adaptive cruise control to the mix.

Getting More from Buick than from Chevrolet

In true GM tradition, as you move up the different brands, you’ll have more items and qualities for the drive. Even though the Buick Encore GX is the same size as the Chevrolet Trailblazer, you’ll have a hefty dose of standard features and premium qualities that make the Buick Encore GX the SUV that you’re going to want to drive. Check out the amazing features and the roominess offered.

Comfort and Versatility in the Buick Encore GX

You’ll have 25.4 cubic feet of cargo room in the rear of the Buick Encore GX, which is more than what the standard Encore has to offer. When you need more room for stuff, you can fold down either side of the 60/40 split-folding seats to add more cargo space to the mix. There’s room for five passengers to experience comfort and quality together.
