The new grill is definitely better looking - sportier, less "old fogey". With the new Envista the only Encore trim worth getting now is the 1.3 with AWD since the Envista is cheaper and better looking if you're going for just FWD.
Excellent review on the Encore GX. Good job on the Restyle. I agree I don't like the CVT either. GM is using the 6 speed automatic in the Trax & Envista w the 1.2 Ecotec. It seems to be a better means of more responsive driving.
Be great if you follow up with satisfaction. I have an older Camry. Considering the Encore GX 1.3L too. GM/S.Korea Daewoo plant building cars that compete with other Japanese and S. Korea cars in quality. Sharp subcompact suv.
I went from Jeep Wrangler to the 2023 Avenier. I love it but sure do miss the high ride of the Jeep. I went from the Avalanche to the Jeep. It is weird driving a small car. I am 78 so I had to get easier to get into.
What you missed and is easily missed is the configurable dash display enabled by holding down the right steering wheel roller button. Why GM buried that, well, I’m sure bean counters were involved.
GM should add LED interior lighting @ Shark 🦈 fin antenna to models that need this update. Leaning towards a Preferred trim level, in Ocean Blue w power tailgate.
Actually the dealership just gave me a loaner 2024 gx while my 2021 trailblazer is getting worked done and I was shocked. My trailblazer is so much more comfortable. I have the upgraded leather like material package on my trailblazer and it's so soft and cushy. There is also alot more legroom in my trailblazer. My back is killing me from sitting in the back of the gx for an hour while the hour there my trailblazer didn't hurt my back at all. What happened to buick being more luxurious? It's literally alot like my trailblazer.

Thank you! CVT's stink!
Just bought an Ocean Blue Metallic one 2 days ago & I love it!

Congrats! I will be getting my soon black on black with black rims
Best video I have seen on this yet, showing all the buttons etc.
Encore turbo is cool. So as it rides
Smooth and quiet.
But many buys Lexus instead with. With couple thousand more
Parts on lexus will be more to fix in future if anything goes wrong! So can't beat the buick!
I'd bet it would get in the low 30's MPG on the highway in "real world" driving - there isn't much weight there, or much horsepower, either.
That's what I would think too

What year jeep did you have?
Looks really nice and futuristic
FYI. Front seats unusually narrow on the GX.

Front seats just too small.
Well done. Peace bro
Thank you🙏🏼

Hmm that's a very interesting and honestly, an unexpected take. Thank you for sharing your experience
Can you review the Lincoln corsair grand touring?
How does one go from 700+ HP to roughly a buck and quarter. Without feeling a little dissatisfied.
Lol.. You have to take a step back and realize what the cars true purpose is
I wish the rear seats recline a little
Now my SUV to buy!
Nope don't do it. Just got this as a loaner while my 21 trailblazer gets worked on and it's so uncomfortable compared to my car
Why no garage door opener? Or side mirror turn signals
Good question - $$
@@703Speed probably so, I thought about every new car came with the garage door opener and side mirror turn signals these days, guess not
Wonder if a v6 can fit under the hood to make this a sleeper.
You can make anything happen lol
