2013 Buick Encore

[ECDT1089]

Dear Buick, please make a Luxury coupe soon. Thank you.

[Vendoll]

I will buy one that is cheaper! Opel Mokka or Buick Encore it depends on the price! But this is what I need!

[gmman05]

It needs a 2.0l turbo! Put the gs turbo engine in this thing and you couldn't keep this thing in stock.

[Maniac5Mike]

This is hideous!!!!

[asianbomb47]

competitor is Nissan Juke

[cuddles6938]

I said all along the enclave was to friggin huge and gas prices the way they are. To bad this wasn't out a few months ago when I got my 2012 Focus Sedan. I would have got a Verano but it didnt come out yet for near same price as a Focus mid level. The Kia Sportage wasnt as sexy as it could have been, to much sits way up in the air, this model looks pretty nice. Opels are nice cars if the reliablity factor has been fixed.

[dee8817]

There's only a 1.4L turbo engine with 140hp?!

I wanna see how much this crossover will cost and what comes standard. Plus I wanna see if this engine is really all this crossover needs.

[khunopie]

The question is: What will Buick do for an encore? hmmm

[mduley31]

I like this crossover. I currently have a 2003 Toyota Matrix AWD that I LUV. I'm looking for a new similar replacement and this excites me and its a Buick NICE. I can't wait to see the reviews to see if the engine is enough for the weight.

[ganthc]

I like the styling a lot. The engine will not be powerful enough to get this big vehicle going, and that will impact gas mileage and the ability to merge on the highway. I also don't like the fact that a supposed luxury car does not come with standard leather in the vehicle. That is ridiculous!

[313hotboi]

I like Buick, but I think its ugly. I'd rather buy the Equinox.

[VIRAJ818]

I love it!!! It looks exactly like the Saturn Vue! I was sad when Saturn was discontinued, because I liked the design of the Vue. Great job Buick!!! Buick is no more a old farts car. No offense to anyone older btw. ;-)

[cheesepie1011]

direct competitor?

have you forgotten the Volvo XC60?

[XenomorphLV426]

140hp? Sounds a little too anemic to me.

[Hondaminican]

Question is; would you rather buy this over the Cadillac SRX or the Audi Q5? me? neither, i like real (body-on-frame) suv's

[Maniac5Mike]

That interior is hideous!!

[cbemch92]

the Vue in a tux

[JFresnicola]

It's the luxury version of Sang Uong Korando!!!

[amansaysmtf]

rather go to work on the back of a donkey than this piece of crap!

[stanbernadino]

I think it's hideous, I used to like Buicks but they're going in the wrong direction in my opinion.

[08cxt]

Bring back the big v 8 cars.

[west2401]

IDK...this Buick look's a lil too heavy for a 1.4L Turbo motor....If it came with at least 200hp, it'd be good!?!

[Charles2337]

I would rather get a Terrain.

[Vitaminous]

2013? Really?

[datboiwes333]

@Vitaminous Yes. That's the point of the Detroit auto show; for manufacturers to debut their new vehicles that will come out in the coming months or year. Always been like that.

[ccolivardia]

remember saturn? well i personaly think this looks like a chromed up and buick badged vue with a better interior

[NuckyBishop]

@ccolivardia this is gamma not theta, not related

[wwaalltthheerr]

I do not envy Kelsey.He has to review such disasters such as this POS. Kind of exactly what one would expect from a failure of an American corporation.

[KLINGY94]

Kelsey Mays for President 2012

[RedGam3r]

Mazda CX-5 its mutch better..

[Jspang16]

its not that its ugly, im just disappointed. The 2010 Lacrosse was just such a beautiful surprise from Buick. This thing should look more like that

[tjstreeter]

Wow, even with Kelsey in the car (Who is a small person) the car looks very tight in the interior.

[remelsheikh]

There are other crossovers out there like the Infiniti EX, lexus RX and Acura RDX that are dominating the crossover market

[Dimsca17]

I'd rather an ex35

[imaginaiton4me]

Look more like the SUV Vue from one the car that been stop prodduce.

[itsTiLER]

so what exactly does it compete with? he said its smaller than the Equinox, which itself is smaller than the RX. so it can't compete with the RX or any of its competitors.

[badgerbuddy]

never liked crossovers. this looks to cheap to be a luxury car. GM i love you, but bring back the big guns!

[chosuriki]

I hate Buick, but this is a way better design with the smaller grille.

Bet they'll sell a boatload of these in China.

[awesomeness2571]

like if you watched this video when the title was "13 Buick Encore"

[MacSaab93]

Ugly and going to be super slow.

[mokos23]

Looks small and from the side looks like a raised Suzuki SX4

[irw08]

Interesting vehicle, seems like it might be like an anemic Infiniti EX35.

[Stereophile11]

just a saturn vue

[Garrison2592]

Nice car but just cant get over the Buick name.

[pieguy720]

Nice interior, bad exterior. 

[1doesntlikeapplepie]

I'd buy one and I'm 19

[colinstu]

@1doesntlikeapplepie well, Buick's goal of targeting the younger segment is working perfectly.

[onishchuk4]

50 cubic ft. of cargo volume? Thats 10 cubic ft. less than my Audi A4 Avant which has a heck of a lot smaller footprint.

[InsurgenceRX]

please no.

[alex4play]

The looks seem to fit the rest of the family and that's not bad but it is REALLY tight in there especially since it was stated it's even smaller than it's cousins the Equinox and the Terrain. Who's the target if someone is in the market for smaller than the Enclave and even smaller than the Equinox/Terrain? IMO Buick did the same with introducing the Verano (what's the need???).

[sheersoxNC]

ITS BETTER LOOKING THAN ANY DAMN IMPORT

[santi781]

1.4L turbo? idk...

[2Kriss2Kross]

I don't think it looks bad. Looks like a shrunken Opel Antara.

[palestinian93man]

pointing at his head and sayin legroom then at his legs and saying headroom :p

[bigtruckseriesreview]

Ugly or not, IT'S GONNA SELL.

[TheGlitteredKitty]

SOOO UGLY!

[jschmitz23]

It's really just that back end that strikes me as odd. I don't like the different colored lower panels. It makes it look like an older car.

[knack0125]

IDK what is wrong with everyone, i think this thing looks nice and the only reason why you people think it looks like its a Saturn is cause all Saturns wer Opels. Just like the Regal is an Opel Insignia. Why don't you all pay attention?!

[solarlightning]

i never understood why somone would buy little suvs when they have the rear seat room of a corolla or civic..ok for the trunk space but honestly you can get a station wagon with much better leg room an about the same trunk space

[GordanMFreeman]

I love buicks, but this looks like a Kia Sorento

[ecoRfan]

BUTT-UGLY...mimics a Suzuki SX-4 but far worse. Tax dollars at work much.

[juggernaut494]

Exterior looks a lot like the discontinued Saturn Vue cuv. GM trying to repackage tired old models from Saturn. Shame shame....

[nemoviesnews]

Same shit, different brand lol

[nespokesman]

leather seats are the devil

[davewhodavedunn]

This does not look premium this looks entry level. The exterior looks cheap and plasticy and the interior looks ok. The rear end looks awful as mentioned. Its like the designers gave up when designing the rear. Alot of car companies do this but this is the worst I have seen. Good luck selling them, i doubt people will buy them. Can anyone say aztek?

[jmc6000]

Something needs to be done with that rear end; one word: horriable!

[seauryakumar]

Juke and Countrymen are the competitors for Vauxhall/Opel Encore model. Should be the same for US.

[grifster981234567890]

what an ugly car.

[droppinsumfudge]

would anyone seriously buy this thing...?

[gilldoom]

It's a buick it will sell.

[loveyouforever91]

a fat Equinox!
