Sweet ride. I just purchased it and very excited.

This car meets all my needs. It has great visibility and AWD. It's a real smooth drive. It has plenty of room in both the front and back and will be great for everyday driving and road trips.

Comfortable and

This car met all my need. It's an SUV, but not too big. Good for parking in such a crowded city like Los Angeles. It looks clean and cute. It has everything that I need~

Perfect SUV for small family

The Buick Encore is truly a pleasure to drive. It is the perfect SUV for a small family. It offers everything that you would expect from the Buick family of cars and SUVs. I have been looking for a SUV similar to the Buick Encore, and after test driving other styles from different makers, I am very glad I elected to buy the Encore.

Great driving experience

This car is good for me, a woman. Smaller inside, however, my husband likes to drive this also. He feels very comfortable. I have lots of room and the vehicle turns on a dime. Love the AWD for the winter and I am in PA. Equipped with lots of "toys" and I love my sunroof. Buick did a great job!

My first used car! I love it!

The price was great, but besides that, it had all of the features I was looking for in my first car (and first used car). The little nooks and crannies are perfect for storing loose ends. The size of the vehicle is nice, it's a small suv, which was what I wanted. Not much leg room in the back, but I don't plan on having adults sitting back there. Great trunk space. The back up camera is a must-have and the blind spot detection in the side mirrors is something I wasn't looking for but really enjoy. I fill the tank for about $26-$28. Whenever I have a passenger in the front, they really enjoy the option to customize their air temperature differently than mine. The newer versions of the car have leather, but I really enjoy how the 2014 has majority cloth for seats. It's much more comfortable. I'm 5'10 and have plenty of room up front to stretch out. The roof isn't low either, which is important for me. I really love this vehicle. I did my research, and test drove a couple other vehicles. I tested a 2016 buick encore and loved it. It had heated leather seats and a sunroof (which neither I cared too much about). It was slightly out of my price range so I left the dealership with nothing that day. I kept thinking about the encore and how perfect it was for me. A month later I did some more research and found the 2014 buick encore I ended up buying. I went to the dealership the next day and bought it. No regrets. Couldn't imagine having another car. A few negatives I've found after having the car for a month and a half... no armrest for the passenger in front. When you plug the aux cord in, it doesn't tell you the name of the song on the screen. Minor things, but something that bother me just enough to wish they were different.

Convenient size/comfort/affordability!!!

This automobile meets all my needs. It's size is just right, offers comfort and is very affordable. I purchased my car new and have always gone back to the dealership for service. Everyone is very friendly and accommodating. The dealership runs a tight ship as far as being timely.

Great car

I love the way the car drives and handles well on the road. I have plenty of leg room. I am kinda tall and it fits great. I live the look of the vehicle.
