City-smart on the outside but impressively spacious and useful on the inside, the 2025 Buick Encore GX offers upscale design, modern tech, and everyday versatility. It’s the subcompact SUV that feels calm and capable whether you’re parallel parking downtown or packing up for a weekend drive.
City-Friendly Style
The Encore GX’s subcompact footprint makes it easy to slip in and out of Portland traffic, and its modern style turns heads along the way. Its sculpted lines, checkmark-shaped LED headlamps, and deep-tinted glass give it a refined look.
The lineup includes the Preferred, Sport Touring, and Avenir trims, and each has a distinct personality that’s expressed through a unique grille and stylish wheels. The Avenir, for example, is the most upscale trim, and that’s seen in the exclusive Black Ice grille and 19-inch Pearl Nickel wheels. It also adds LED taillamps with clear lenses, bright chrome accents on the front fascia, and useful roof rails.
Sophisticated and Spacious Cabin
The Encore GX seats five with enough legroom for adults in both rows: 40.9 inches in the front and 36 inches in the rear. It also offers flexible cargo space. There’s a spacious 23.5 cubic feet cargo area behind the rear seats, but you can expand that to 50.2 cubic feet by folding the rear seats down. With the available flat-folding front passenger seat also folded down, you can carry items up to eight feet long.
Power and Performance
The Encore GX comes standard with an ECOTEC 1.2L turbo engine, a continuous variable transmission (CVT), and front-wheel drive. For a bit more passing power, a 1.3L turbo engine is available, and you can opt for all-wheel drive with a nine-speed transmission if you need more traction for snowy streets or gravel roads.
User-Friendly Tech
The Encore GX features an 11-inch infotainment touchscreen and an eight-inch driver information center integrated under a single glass pane, so key information is available at a glance. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with voice command allow you to make calls, send messages, and control your music and never take your eyes off the road. Bluetooth audio streaming and a six-speaker audio system provide endless music options, and an available seven-speaker Bose audio system offers an even richer experience.
Comprehensive Safety Suite
Every Encore GX comes with Buick Driver Confidence, a suite of driver-assistance features that includes front collision alert, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, automatic high beams, and front pedestrian braking. A rear vision camera is also standard for added confidence while parking and backing up.
From downtown errands to coastal escapes, the Encore GX’s city style, flexible space, and modern tech elevate every drive. Stop by Buick GMC of Beaverton in Portland, OR to see it for yourself.
