Also, because of efficiency boosters such as an offset crankshaft, electric oil pump, electric brake booster and electric turbo wastegate, it’s the most efficient choice. This engine can be paired with a CVT and front-wheel drive, or a nine-speed automatic transmission with all-wheel-drive. The optional engine, available only on the upper two trims Select and Essence, is a 1.3-liter example making 155 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque.
It’s also not the most efficient powertrain offering, returning 28 mpg in town, 31 on the highway, and 29 combined. It’s only able to be paired with a CVT and front-wheel drive. The standard engine, available with every trim, is a 1.2-liter unit making 137 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque. Powering the Encore GX is your choice of small turbocharged three-cylinder engines. Otherwise it's a fine but unexceptional crossover. But compared with other crossovers, the Buick’s only real advantage is in its quietness, refined powertrain and upmarket badge. In fact, as it starts at just $900 more than the existing Encore and offers more power, space and fuel economy, it’s unquestionably the Encore version to get when heading to your Buick dealer. It sits just above the existing Encore, and it offers more space and new turbocharged engines for just a bit more money. With Buick seeing sales success in our crossover-crazed world, it’s no wonder the company is adding to its crossover lineup with the 2020 Buick Encore GX.
