There’s no reason you cannot get ahead of the trend by coming down and chatting with us about this exciting 2024 crossover SUV.

Great Results at an Affordable Price

We know that automobile prices have risen substantially since the supply chain crisis began in 2020. With the 2024 Encore GX, however, you’ll be investing well. Buick offers the Encore GX at a reasonable starting price as they aim to make this crossover accessible to all. Drivers deserve to have high-performing vehicles at affordable prices. The Encore GX has a starting MSRP of $26,895.^[a] Even better, though, is the long-term savings that come from owning an Encore GX. How so? One word: mileage.

The Encore GX is a fuel-efficient vehicle. If you’re not yet sold on a hybrid or EV but still want to reduce damage at the pump, then the Encore GX fits the bill. We’ve all noticed how moody gas prices have been. Down one day and then up wildly the next. Every time we seem to breathe a sigh of relief when checking out the gas prices, the next day, we’re back to shaking our heads. That’s why a crossover that earns a great fuel economy rating is so imperative for the modern driver. It’s simply not economically feasible to settle for a vehicle that requires a refill at the drop of a hat.

Equipped with its standard 1.2L engine, the Encore GX gets an EPA-estimated 30 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway. If equipped with its 1.3L engine, the Buick Encore gets an EPA-estimated 29 MPG on the highway and 31 MPG in the city. If you opt for all-wheel drive and the 1.3L engine, the Encore GX has a slightly lower fuel economy rating of 26 MPG in the city and 28 MPG on the highway. With a full tank, the Buick Encore GX can travel between 350 and 400 miles, which gives it a very competitive edge among other crossovers in its category.

Your wallet will be thrilled with the Encore GX. On day one, you’re able to purchase it at an affordable rate, and then you can continue to save money over the next few years since your fuel costs will be lower. Economically, there’s no better choice than this successful crossover.

Bang for Your Buck

With affordability being the name of the game, you might be wondering what the Encore GX sacrifices for that lower sticker price. You’ll be happy to know that the answer is nothing. The Encore GX combines the sportier, luxury vehicles that young drivers desire with the spaciousness and even towing capacity that a family needs. Whether you’re young or old, single or are part of a growing family, the Encore GX will be able to meet your expectations.

Just looking at the Encore GX proves its versatility. Its front grille has an almost ironic smile, and its headlights have a sharp look that gives it a mischievous sense. In other words, it provides you with a sporty vibe. Its rear, though, has a shape that’s perfect for storing cargo, be it luggage or athletic gear. When you show up somewhere, the crossover’s front will tell everyone that you know style, while its rear will tell everyone that you live a life filled with adventure.

Its interior packs a sense of luxury, especially if you decide to go with the available panoramic moonroof. The generous room, even in the backseat, will let passengers relax no matter how long your trip ends up being. The length of your trek will matter a lot less when you’re in a vehicle this comfortable.

Let’s talk a bit about what it is that allows the Encore GX to be so versatile.

Under the Hood Supports Above the Hood

The success of the Encore GX, what lets it mix luxury with utility, sportiness with family friendliness, is under its hood. There are two engines you can select from. The first is the aforementioned ECOTEC 1.2L turbo engine. Well designed, its efficient performance is what gives you that great mileage. If you want to consider more power, though, you can opt for the ECOTEC 1.3L engine, which also has an available 9-speed transmission. The latter makes traveling over uneven ground far easier. The more powerful engine also gives you some towing power, about 1,000 pounds. Smaller crossovers are not usually associated with towing strength, but this nimble vehicle beats the competition and lets you pack some extra poundage.

The optional all-wheel drive, when combined with the ECOTEC 1.3L and drive mode selector, makes this crossover more effective on challenging terrain. By offering more traction, all-wheel drive can give you a better sense of command.

Trims Let You Customize on a Budget

The Encore GX comes in plenty of trims, all of which allow you to adapt the SUV to your nature. If you want a class-leading 11-in diagonal infotainment system, a flat bottom steering wheel, and gloss-black rear bumper accents, choose the Sport Touring trim. If you’re looking for something a little more luxurious, you can opt for the Avenir trim. With this trim, you’ll get heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, remote start, leather-trimmed seats, and 8-way power-adjustable front seats. You’ll also get the option to upgrade to a Bose premium 7-speaker system, a hands-free power liftgate, a panoramic moonroof, adaptive cruise control, a rear camera mirror, and wireless charging for your phone.

Trims are a great way to customize your Encore GX, but you might be understandably worried that choosing a higher trim means the affordability vanishes. Yet while a higher trim is a little pricier, the difference between base and trims is relatively small, especially compared to other manufacturers that hike up trim prices to make an extra buck.

Let the Encore GX Give Your Wallet a Break

The versatile nature of the 2024 Encore GX makes it perfect for almost any type of trip, and the economical price of even the highest trim means you can travel in style. If it sounds too good to be true, it’s not: we know an affordable yet attractive ride will be desirable to our customers, and we’re ready to provide them with that. With this in mind, you’ll want to jump at the chance to purchase your 2024 Encore GX, as they’re going to move fast.
