Exterior Design
The 2022 Buick Encore is a hit, design-wise, getting the most out of its smaller frame to offer both stylish looks and utility. A low-slung, athletic body with a sculpted hood and side panels give the Encore undeniable SUV appeal. LED daytime running lamps flank the Encore’s grille—featuring of course, Buick’s signature lighting style, for an undeniable bright spot on this compact SUV. LED-accented tail lights keep the sporty persona of the Encore front and centre, as do the standard 18” aluminum wheels with Technical Grey pockets.
An available one-touch power moonroof offers a breath of fresh air on the 2022 Buick Encore, both literally and figuratively, while the rest of the interior offers the same luxurious approach you expect from a Buick. Comfortable seating for 5 also offers plenty of versatility thanks to the fold-flat front passenger and second-row seats, allowing the Encore to provide up to 1,371-litres of cargo space. Add in Buick QuietTuning® technology, with features like triple door seals and acoustic laminated glass, and you can enjoy an exceptionally quiet ride—or take advantage of the Encore’s potent sound system.

Performance & Efficiency
A turbocharged 1.4-litre, DOHC (dual overhead cam) 4-cylinder engine provides the necessary pickup to push the 2022 Buick Encore along with 155 horsepower and 158 lb-ft of torque. This means whether you’re zipping through downtown traffic or hitting the highway, you’ll have no problem passing any of the vehicles on the road. Matched to a 6-speed automatic transmission, the 2022 Encore provides exceptional estimated fuel efficiency, as low as 9.7 L/100 km in the city and 7.3 L/100 km on the highway in the front-wheel drive-equipped version of this crafty crossover. For those on the more adventurous side, you can opt for the intelligent All-Wheel Drive version of the Encore where an onboard computer monitors the performance of all four wheels, transferring torque to the wheels that need it most to keep you under control. From there, StabiliTrak® technology adds another layer of defence against inclement weather and uneven roads.
| Engine | Drivetrain | Transmission | Horsepower | Torque | Fuel Efficiency (estimated; L/100 km) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.4L DOHC Turbocharged 4-cylinder | FWD | 6-speed automatic transmission | 155 | 158 lb-ft | 9.7 City/7.3 Highway |
| 1.4L DOHC Turbocharged 4-cylinder | AWD | 6-speed automatic transmission | 155 | 158 lb-ft | 10.2 City/7.7 Highway |
