2020 Buick Encore Preferred AWD 1.4 turbo from North America

Summary:

Love it

Faults:

Nothing, just regular maintenance.

General Comments:

Drive in Toronto, Canada. Got it new, no issues so far other than regular maintenance. Got the AWD Preferred, I am 6 feet, fits me well. Easy to get in/out of the car with plenty of head space, even with the sunroof package. Since I push the driver's seat back, the children fit behind driver's side.

Great local commuter, a bit noisy on the highway, good for short trips, take my larger SUV for long trips for more comfort, good gas mileage. Don't load more than 4 adults for comfort, love the small turning radius compared to my old Impala.

Reminds me of my old Pontiac Vibe with a bit more height.

Always warm the car in winter to get the oil going and help long term turbo life. I use 0w30 mobile full synthetic oil in winter for better oil flow to the engine and turbo on cold days.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
