The 2025 Buick Encore GX offers two turbocharged engine choices. The standard ECOTEC 1.2L Turbo now supports E85 ethanol fuel for added flexibility at the pump. You can also upgrade to an available ECOTEC 1.3L Turbo engine for enhanced performance. Both engines pair with a Continuous Variable Transmission and standard Front-wheel drive. You'll enjoy excellent efficiency with 29 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway, delivering up to 155 horsepower. An available intelligent all-wheel drive system is also available for improved grip and control in challenging conditions. For specific performance details or to compare engine options in person, call Markquart Motors at (715) 833-0444 or visit us in Chippewa Falls to test drive both powertrains.
