All 2026 Buick Encore GX models share a strong foundation: a 1.3-liter Turbo engine delivering responsive performance and efficiency. The Preferred trim uses a standard automatic transmission, while Sport Touring and Avenir feature a 9-speed automatic for refined power delivery.

The Encore GX seats up to five passengers comfortably and delivers GM-estimated 29 mpg city and 31 mpg highway across all trims. Inside, you'll find an ultrawide 11-inch infotainment screen, an 8-inch reconfigurable Driver Information Center, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard.

Practicality shines with flexible 40/60 split rear seats, and an available flat-folding front-passenger seatback opens up extra cargo space. Optional premium features like a panoramic moonroof and hands-free liftgate add convenience. Ready to explore? Contact Markquart Motors at (715) 833-0444 or browse our new inventory online.
