2015 Buick Encore Quick Take - Kelley Blue Book

The 2015 Buick Encore is no Juke. It would be interesting to see what Harley Earl, the first head of design, would think of the Encore. Earl, a Buick man and proponent of longer, lower, wider designs, probably would think the tall and stubby Encore odd-looking. The Encore difference. Where the Encore stands out from its competitors is in its upscale appearance inside the cabin and above all, the quiet and smooth ride that has been a Buick hallmark. In fact, the Encore shares a lot of the same sort of tranquility and ease of operation found in its much larger sibling, the Enclave. Equipped with a turbocharged 1. 4-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, the 138-horsepower Encore has plenty of power for its diminutive size and is equipped with a seamless 6-speed automatic transmission. The Encore's flat folding rear seats provided plenty of room for a fold-up banquet table, collapsible book case, fold-up chair, umbrella and four huge boxes of stuff with plenty of room left over.
