Encore is SAIC-GM-Buick’s flagship mid-to-large SUV. Although from the analysis of the time of launch, there is no advantage compared with competitors such as Highlander and Touang , it has won the recognition of many consumers with its cost-effectiveness and product strength, especially for friends who are budgeted at around 300,000 and are pursuing affordable benefits. Buick Encore , which focuses on misplaced competition strategies, is obviously a relatively cost-effective choice at the same price. Below, the author analyzes the issues that potential consumers are more concerned about in terms of product strength and whether it is worth buying. In terms of the price of

, the official guide price of 2022 models remains between 299,900 and 359,900 yuan. According to the editor's visit and survey, taking Chengdu as an example (different regions are different), the terminal discount of Buick Encore is more than 40,000 yuan, which means that the actual price of the entry-level version is only more than 250,000 yuan. From this analysis, you can buy a large-scale, joint venture brand flagship positioning mid-to-large SUV, and the cost-effectiveness is still very high.

In terms of appearance, the Buick Encore is designed in a fashionable and elegant manner. The front face adopts a family design language, and the tall and thick body outlines make it highlight a strong sense of power. In addition, the exquisite atmosphere of the front face is also enhanced by the split headlight combination and the flying wing-type air intake grille. It is highly recognizable and in line with the aesthetic vision of the Chinese people, and has become my evaluation of the front face of the Buick Encore.

rear design is also relatively high-end, with a combination of taillights with edges and corners, and the outside is blackened. Combined with the flat-out style, the double-sided and double-exhaust exhaust creates a very strong sporty posture.

In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the Buick Enoch flagship are 4981/1953/1722mm respectively, and the body wheelbase reaches 2863mm. For this size data, it is considered to be a relatively mainstream level in the same level. In addition, the entire Buick Encore series offers two seat layouts to choose from, which can well meet the car needs of different consumers.

In terms of riding experience, the comfort and space of the 6-seat version are better than the 7-seat version, which is more suitable for families. This is also the main reason why I focus on recommending the 6-seat version. What is worth mentioning is that the 6-seat layout is no longer the exclusive configuration of the Avia version. If you have a special liking for the 6-seat version and don’t like the Avia light-toned interior, you can focus on the four-wheel drive exclusive flagship 6-seat model, which is the key price 20,000 yuan cheaper than the Avia version.

interior luxury creation As a specialty of the Buick model, this family flagship Buick Encore will naturally not disappoint everyone. The layered design technique gives the interior cockpit a full three-dimensional feel. The use of a button-type gear lever structure has greatly improved the interior level. Of course, if you have to say something about it, it is nothing more than the 8-inch central control display size. Faced with the current large screen that has almost become the standard configuration, the Buick Encore's sense of technology is indeed a bit inferior. In terms of configuration of

, it is most suitable for the Buick Encore flag to be summarized as high-end. Perhaps in the perception of many friends, they will feel that the entry-level version of a model is often to lower the threshold and attract attention. It is an indisputable fact that the entry-level version of most models is low, but this Buick Encore seems very generous. Its relatively comprehensive active safety configuration, panoramic image that improves daily car experience, electric trunk and remote start are all standard. The comfortable and intelligent configuration including electric adjustment of the main and co-pilot seat, heating/ventilation of the front seat and remote control of the mobile APP are not absent. I think if there are no rigid requirements for four-wheel drive or 6-seaters, choosing the Buick Encore entry-level version is enough.

hardware part, Buick Encore's entire series comes with a powertrain with a 2.0T engine + 48V mild hybrid system. Although the Buick Encore car weighs about two tons, it will not be weak when driving. The two-wheel drive version and four-wheel drive version have 000 acceleration times of 8.6 seconds and 9 seconds respectively, which is also a relatively top-notch level in the same level.

As for the smoothness performance of the 9AT gearbox that everyone is more concerned about? I have conducted an in-depth experience. After the speed is up, I can basically achieve smoothness and the downshift action is relatively straightforward. However, there is a slight sense of frustration when driving at low speed, which to a certain extent reduces the driving texture.

Summary: Putting aside external factors such as value retention rate, this Buick Enoch flagship can definitely be regarded as a good car at the same price. The same goes for you, if you plan to buy a 7-seater or 6-seater SUV and are more concerned about the cost-effectiveness and driving texture, the Buick Encore is still worth considering.
