Meet the 2025 Buick Encore GX: Luxury in a Compact Package

Powertrains and Fuel Economy

The Buick Encore GX comes standard with a 1.2L turbo-three engine, a CVT, and front-wheel drive. It makes 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque and manages 30 mpg city and 31 mpg highway. A more powerful 1.3L turbo-three is available, with an output of 155 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque.

All-wheel drive is available to give you better traction and stability on slippery roads and off-road trails. The AWD Encore GX comes with the 1.3L engine, and it’s paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission. It’s also frugal with fuel, with 26 mpg around town and 28 mpg on the highway. All models include trailering equipment and an optional trailer hitch if you’d like to do some light towing.

Seating and Comfort

The Encore GX has a cozy and quiet cabin that includes premium materials and active noise cancellation. The seats mix soft cloth with stylish leatherette to give you comfort and style. The optional Comfort Package will get you an 8-way power driver’s seat with lumbar controls, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and a rear center armrest.

Dual-zone automatic climate control, a 6-way power passenger seat, and a power sunroof are all available, as well. With the standard remote start feature, you can start the engine remotely and turn on the AC, so the cabin is nice and comfy when you step in.

Infotainment System

Up front, you’ll find an 11-inch touchscreen infotainment display. From here, you can access all vehicle info and link your phone wirelessly via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. There’s so much you can do, from streaming music to accessing your favorite navigation and social apps. You can even connect your phone to the car’s Bluetooth to take calls safely while driving.

You’ll also find a Wi-Fi hotspot that keeps the entire crew connected on the road. Two USB ports come standard, and a wireless charging pad is available on all trims. All FWD models are equipped with a 6-speaker sound system, while the AWD variants get a more premium 7-speaker stereo.

Safety Technology

The Buick Driver Confidence package equips every Encore GX with a suite of driver-assist features. It offers a responsive automatic emergency braking system with front pedestrian braking, lane-keeping assist, lane departure warning, and a following distance indicator. Other standard safety features include a rear vision camera, rear cross-traffic alert, and a blind spot monitor.
