Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2019 Buick Encore ranked #3 in Subcompact SUVs. Currently the Buick Encore has a score of 8.2 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 37 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Nice interior with lots of standard features
User-friendly infotainment system
Nimble handling

Cons
Underpowered base engine
Higher base price than rivals

By:

The Encore's available trims have been downsized to the base and Preferred models for 2021. With the exception of adding Dark Moon Blue Metallic and Cinnabar Metallic exterior colors, Buick hasn't made any changes to its smallest SUV.

Pros
Smooth ride,
intuitive infotainment setup,
surprisingly spacious cabin.

Cons
Not as fuel efficient as key rivals,
lacks standard safety tech,
just plain slow.

Simplified trim lineup. Improved suite of driver safety aids.

Pros
Hushed cabin at highway speeds
Maneuverable size

Cons
Tepid acceleration
Limited feature availability
Small cargo area
Unimpressive fuel economy

By:

The Jeep Renegade offers distinctive styling and decent practicality, but most rivals make it feel agricultural.

Pros
Plenty of standard equipment
Good safety rating
Genuine off-road ability

Cons
Unsettled ride
Awful refinement
Comparatively expensive

By:

Pros
Feels like a proper off-road application of hybrid tech – and it works well off road
Preserves the Renegade’s plucky charm. It’s good fun to drive at times

Cons
Hybrid system doesn’t tame the Renegade’s rough-hewn temperament as a road car
It also adversely affects carrying practicality, which was already in slightly mean supply
