2018 Buick Encore Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers of the 2018 Buick Encore appreciate its good gas mileage, safety features, and smooth ride. Many noted the small SUV's interior comfort and the number of amenities it offers for its size. However, some drivers expressed concerns about the limited cabin space and the quality of the backup camera."
This is a wonderful small SUV, a lot of features packaged in a small space, my only cpmplaint - some of the more common features are not present in the Premium trim package that you would expect it to have, no remote start and no buttons for garage door openers.
August 1, 2022Great value. Has everything I need to feel complete and compete with newer models. The only thing I dislike is the backup camera quality. It likes like a CRT TV.
January 6, 2022This car is snappy, responsive, big enough inside for almost everyone, has so many creature comforts, and hidey holes for your things. Fun and responsible at the same time.

May 17, 2021I absolutely loved this suv..Everything was right where I needed it to be..The enfotainment system,the dash and everything was pretty easy to negotiate..My only downside would be how small the cabin is but other than that fine..
February 11, 2023Nice replacement for the 2005 Buick Rendezvous we owned previously. This car had all the bells and whistles we wanted. The only thing this year/model did not offer was heads up light display for the speedometer. Had that in my 2005. I understand newer models have it. Great value!
June 9, 2021Love it. My Buick has more options than I wanted. Great car. Great price!
September 11, 2020This is a very nice vehicle, and considering the low mileage and condition, a great buy. The only downside, is there are very few options with it. It has all the basics, and new tires were included, so it is priced right.
March 22, 2023I loved the cars features. Ive never ever had this new of a vehicle so everything seemed awesome and I cant compare to other vehicles because this is the newest(2018) that Ive ever had in my life. The last car I had was a 2009 , never owned anything newer. The only thing I missed was a CD player but I figured out how to set up my smartphone to the Buicks radio and I loved it. I always heard that Buicks were a very good dependable car and they hold there value. Im loving it !
June 23, 2021Good on gas has the safety features smooth ride easy to get around town only downside to it is only one armrest for the driver but little SUV hope this helps you in your decision
