Buick has changed drivers' expectations of crossover sport utility vehicles in recent years. For the 2020 model year, the beloved American brand brings you an additional crossover SUV option that bridges the size gap between its Encore and Envision models. Branded the Buick Encore GX, this model keeps its smaller sibling's agility while it adds cargo capacity. Let's further consider what the Encore GX adds to Buick's lineup as we enter a new decade.
Where Does the GX Fall in the Lineup?
The Encore GX placement between the Encore and the Envision provides a new price point to Buick's crossover SUV range. While you might like a larger vehicle than the original Encore, you could also prefer a lower cost. The Encore GX base price falls between the other two models' figures.
For the Encore GX, you add five cubic feet of cargo space. You also enjoy Buick's 1.4-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine, which hops from dead stops. Buick also gave the Encore GX cushier interior than its smaller namesake offers.
How is the Interior Different?
Within that interior, we find a refined instrument cluster and an updated infotainment setup that you can operate through the model's elegantly placed touchscreen. That screen also displays the views provided by the Encore GX available 360-degree camera array. Notably, Buick made lane-keeping tech and automatic emergency brakes standard Encore GX features.
