The 2025 Buick Encore GX balances refined power with impressive efficiency. You can choose between two turbocharged engines: a standard ECOTEC 1.2L or an available ECOTEC 1.3L. Both deliver the responsive performance you need for city driving and weekend getaways.

The Encore GX produces up to 155 horsepower and achieves strong fuel economy-29 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway. Every model comes standard with a Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) and front-wheel drive, plus StabiliTrak electronic stability control that automatically adjusts for wheel slippage in challenging conditions. An available intelligent all-wheel drive system enhances grip and cornering for added control in various weather and road conditions.

The 2025 model year also introduces a new turbocharged 1.2L engine that supports E85 ethanol fuel, giving you flexibility at the pump. Ready to test drive? Contact Markquart Motors in Chippewa Falls at (715) 833-0444 or browse our new inventory.
