The Buick Encore GX is available in three trim levels: Preferred, Select, and Essence. Front-wheel drive is standard across the lineup, and all-wheel drive is optional. Front-wheel-drive models are powered by a turbocharged 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine that puts out 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. The Essence trim boasts a turbocharged 1.3-liter three-cylinder engine that develops 155 hp and 174 lb-ft of torque. Select models with front-wheel-drive get this engine as an option. With front-wheel drive, both powerplants are coupled to a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT).
According to the Pennsauken Township Buick dealership, all-wheel-drive models come with the 1.3-liter turbo-four and get a nine-speed automatic transmission. This engine returns the best fuel economy, with an EPA-estimated rating of up to 29 mpg city/32 mpg highway.*
