The Encore GX Preferred comes well equipped with cloth/synthetic leather seats, power features, an 8.0-inch touchscreen for infotainment, multi-device Bluetooth connectivity, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, Amazon Alexa, 6-speaker audio, keyless start, and 18-inch wheels. The 2021 Encore GX comes in three trims: Preferred, Select and Essence. Optional safety equipment (standard on some models) includes a surround-view camera system, a rear camera mirror, adaptive cruise control, a head-up display, and parking sensors. It hasn’t been crash-tested by the NHTSA and IIHS yet, but it comes standard with automatic emergency braking, active lane control, and LED headlights with automatic high beams. With the 1.3-liter engine, it gets 30/32/31 mpg with front-wheel drive, and 26/29/28 mpg with all-wheel drive. The EPA rates the Encore GX with the 1.2-liter turbo-3 at 28 mpg city, 31 highway, 29 combined. It rides well, but doesn’t have much interest in twisty roads. The GX with this engine lays down eight-second 0-60 mph times, good enough for a small commuter car. It’s mated to a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) with front-wheel drive, or a 9-speed automatic with all-wheel drive. The base engine is a 1.2-liter turbo-3, but for a mere $395 that can turn into a more powerful 1.3-liter with 155 hp. That’s longer overall than the Encore by about two inches, longer in wheelbase by 1.6 inches, and wider by about an inch. The Encore GX is 171.4 inches long, with a wheelbase of 102.2 inches and width of 71.4 inches. One innovative new feature is Amazon Alexa compatibility, which lets users ping the service to control navigation, read audiobooks, and even send orders to a home-based device. It also has a new engine, a turbo-3 instead of the non-turbo 4-cylinder in the Encore. The curvy Encore GX is more stylish, safer, and has a nicer cabin with more features and improved technology, without being much bigger or more costly. It’s a companion to the existing Encore hatchback, but they’re not the same vehicle. The 2021 Buick Encore GX is a compact hatchback crossover, redesigned for 2021.
