The Preferred trim is the starting point for the 2026 Buick Encore GX, offering a smart balance of comfort, technology, and value. Standard features include cloth-leatherette seating, 18-inch Bright Silver painted aluminum wheels, the 1.3-liter Turbo engine, an ultrawide 11-inch infotainment screen, and an 8-inch Driver Information Center. You also get wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, 40/60 split rear seats, and impressive fuel economy (29 city/31 highway mpg). It's ideal for drivers who want modern conveniences and daily practicality without stepping up to higher trims.
