Engine

The Encore comes with an all-wheel or front-wheel drive, depending on your preference. The Encore has an EPA estimated fuel economy of 10.6 km/L in the city and 12.75 km/L on the highway for the front-wheel-drive and 10.2 km/L in the city and 12.3 km/L on the highway for the all-wheel drive.

The infotainment system in the 2022 Buick Encore, Ottawa model is controlled by voice commands, which means that all of your favourite songs and radio stations are just a few words away. You can also access your favourite apps and use them hands-free while driving.
You can connect your phone to the infotainment system through Bluetooth, so all of your contacts are always on hand. You can also use Apple CarPlay or Android Auto to connect directly with those apps.
Comfort
The 2022 Buick Encore offers various comfort features that stand out from the competition. The most notable feature is the adaptive suspension system. This system will adapt to your driving style and adjust the suspension accordingly to enjoy a smooth ride no matter what you’re doing.
The Encore also comes with an advanced climate control system that lets you get comfortable in any temperature or weather condition. The car’s interior will be heated or cooled automatically, so you don’t have to worry about being too hot or cold while driving around town or on long trips across state lines.
Safety Features
The 2022 Buick Encore provides various safety features to help keep you and your passengers safe. The vehicle’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure helps protect the passenger compartment in a frontal collision. Front crash prevention technology can detect when a collision is imminent and automatically apply the brakes to help reduce the severity of the impact.
Automatic emergency braking is also available. It can recognize when you’re approaching another vehicle too quickly and will automatically apply the brakes if there’s no evasive action. Side blind zone alerts are also available; they’ll sound an alert if a car or pedestrian is detected in your side blind zone while you’re driving. A rearview camera with gridlines will help you see what’s behind you when backing up—this feature is particularly helpful for parking lots where visibility might be limited.
Conclusion
We think the 2022 Buick Encore is a reasonably well-rounded vehicle. Encore’s engine and features make it a leader in the current crossover market. However, the best feature is its starting price, which starts at around $24,998. This is a great little car for young families on a budget, and it’s also an option worth considering if you require a new vehicle soon.
