Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The Encore GX, despite the familiar name, is an all-new model for Buick for 2020.Buick offers several attractive and comfortable crossovers, and the all-new Encore GX occupies the smaller end of that spectrum. The 2020 Buick Encore GX initially sounds as if it were a trim level that is offered on the subcompact Buick Encore, but it is actually its own, bigger model positioned below the compact Buick Envision. The Encore GX gives Buick another entry in the ever-popular crossover market, with its purposeful design and efficient packaging.

Cons

Positioned as an in-betweener for Buick's crossover lineup, the 2020 Encore GX is bigger than the subcompact Encore, but smaller than the midsize Envision.
Pros
Sharp, bold exterior styling
Standard active safety equipment

Cons
Consumer indifference to an undefined brand

The 2020 Dodge Durango takes on family crossover SUVs with brute strength, and some old-school compromises.

Pros
Tough truck looks
Muscle car performance
High-quality interior
High-capacity cabin
Hilarious Durango SRT

Cons
Old-school safety scores
Poor fuel economy
Stiff ride at times
Showing its age

By:

The Durango is almost entirely unchanged for 2020, but the R/T trim sees some minute equipment updates, including a new Hemi fender badge for models with the Blacktop and Brass Monkey packages, a faux-suede headliner and accent stitching on the instrument panel for cars with the Premium interior package, and a new 20-inch wheel design.

Pros
Bold design, high tow ratings, V-8 is quick off the line.

Cons
Third row is only optional, aging platform, thirsty engines.

By: 
caranddriver.com

The 2020 Dodge Durango comes with all wheel drive, and rear wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic.No significant changes for 2020.

Bigger and bulkier to drive than rival crossover SUVs
