Not a bad choice.

My daily driver truck blew an engine and I had to go to work the next day so my wife and I headed to the only dealership in town that I trusted and they had a gently used Buick Encore on the used car lot. I thought it was funny looking but the price was right so I made a deal and drove it home. Seats were comfortable. Ride was not exactly silky smooth. Acceleration was adequate. Handling for an SUV was great. Gas mileage is 26-27 MPG normal driving, 30+ highway. All in all, it's grown on me. It's nine years old now. I'd buy a new one. Supposedly they're even better. Oh, and repairs have been minimal.

Great car

Love it! Travel a lot with family out of town and this cart runs smoothly, gets good gas mileage and very dependable. Lots of room in the back seats, too! Would recommend it, we’ve been very pleased with it.

Had a few hiccups

I really enjoy this car. I do feel like it doesn't have enough horsepower. I've had a few things I've had to repair recently but overall a great small SUV. Purchased from CarMax which is where I tend to go

Like car

The car is good but every since I purchased it I been having problems with coolant leeks. This all started 2weeks after I bought it in 2019. Thermostat, hose, radiator, and head gasket all had to be replaced.

Encore

This is probably the best vehicle I've had. It holds the road well in windy conditions, good on gas mileage, not to big and not to small, just perfect. Great for travel, long or short trips. I can carry slot with me and not worry about getting everything into it.

Great car

Only have had it for a year and it had 25,000 miles when I got it. Now have 41,000 and all care free. This is my golf and run around car but I like it better than our new Toyota. Going to drive it for a long time

Buick Encore 2015

Our 2015 Buick Encore is one of the best vehicles I've ever owned. It handles the road very well, gets good gas mileage, with one of the back seats down we fit all of our groceries in the back, it's very comfortable and we fit 4 adults in vehicle with no problem. When I need to I'll just upgrade to a new Buick Encore for us it's perfect!!

Small economical vehicle

This little car provides plentyGreat of room for four passengers. It will accelerate when needed. It is a comfortable riding vehicle. I am not one for large vehicles and I traded a Mini Cooper for this one due to more cargo space. It has been a comfort to drive.

Love our Encore

Our 2015 Buick Encore Has 105,000 miles, April 2021. It’s like brand new. People comment on our new car! It runs great. The only major work we have done is the throttlebody and sensor motor engine light on a small repair. It’s the perfect small SUV for us. It’s the best car we’ve ever had.

Too many repairs

My vehicle fails emissions inspection EVERY YEAR! The valve cover broke and spewed all the oil and left me stranded on the side of the road while driving to Atlanta. The gas mileage is good, but too many mechanical problems. I can’t wait to get rid of this vehicle!

Blissfulness

My car has been such a Blessing beyond words! Road Trips are a breeze and fun! Sits high enough to see and feel confident! Bug enough to travel in! Absolutely plenty safe to feel secure in day or night! Small enough to fit easy in various parking spots! Parallel parking to perfection! Gas mileage is extremely helpful for my budget! I feel Happy when driving!

So Far

I have had the Encore since February. I enjoy it so far. I use to buy only Honda cars. So far buick is working for me. For the car to be my first semi suv i love it. Would have hoped the car would not need as many repairs but that is what when you buy used. But over all i like the car.

Buick Encore

The car is quite satisfactory for driving around Wilmington. However, for Interstate driving, I am sorry I didn't get the Enclave as I feel less comfortable with the smaller car holding the road at a high speed.

fun to drive

I bought my 2015 Encore in June of 2018 I love everything about it. It is so much fun to drive I love the backup camera. If someone is looking for a fun and stylish ride this is the one for you I am 5 '11' and it has a lot of head room so if you are wondering if there is a lot of head room they have you covered. signed, Love my Encore
