It’s Finally Here! Introducing the 2020 Buick Encore GX

The all-new, 2020 Buick Encore GX is here! Though Buick’s Encore has already seen success as a crossover vehicle, the 2020 GX comes in a new size and look, which creates a completely different, and new, feel to the vehicle. The Encore GX fits itself perfectly between the subcompact Encore and the compact Envision, in terms of size, and it comes with tons of upgrades. Buick is bringing fresh excitement to the crossover market, and at Liberty Buick GMC, we can’t wait for you to drive the 2020 Encore GX. 

America has experienced—and is still exciting—a surge in crossover vehicle sales. Something about having the control and luxury of a sedan mixed with the power and grit of a sport utility vehicle makes us happy and excited to drive. Vehicles like the Jeep Compass, Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, the Subaru Crosstreck, and the new Mazda CX-30 are all carving out a section for themselves within the crossover family. The 2020 Buick Encore is a perfect addition to this lineup, and not only because it fits the bill as a crossover. The new Encore GX hopes to take a lead in the crossover market by bringing high style, true luxury, and innovative technology to the Encore GX. 

The Exterior 

The 2020 Buick Encore GX has a great new look. It comes in a total of nine beautiful colors:

• White Frost Tricoat
• Deep Azure Metallic
• Burnished Bronze Metallic
• Black Currant Metallic
• Satin Steel Metallic
• Ebony Twilight Metallic
• Summit White
• Dark Moon Blue Metallic
• Chili Red Metallic

The slight curvature throughout the body provides contours and shadows, showing off the sleek design that could easily, at first glance, be mistaken for a modern Mercedes or Porsche SUV. 

After a second look, though, you’ll realize you are in the presence of something impressively unique: a chrome surround starts at the front and reaches to the back; large taillights emphasize the breadth of the vehicle, while the modern design seems to pull the body in, giving it a fit, sporty aesthetic. The large grille up front is non-intrusive, but it does make a statement that this is something new, and quite possibly Buick’s most modern move in years. 

Exterior Specs:

• Wheelbase: (in)100.6
• Track Width, Rear: (in)60.62
• Height, Overall: (in)65.25
• Length, Overall: (in)168.35
• Min. Ground Clearance: (in)6.22
• Track Width, Front: (in)60.65
• Width, Max w/o mirrors: (in)70.1

The Interior 

Inside the Encore GX, there are soft-touch materials throughout, LED lighting to set the mood, and an Infotainment center with all the bells and whistles. 

Compared to the Encore, the 2020 GX has 5.0 more cubic feet of cargo space, and it comes with all sorts of standard safety features: There’s the automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection—a must-have these days; lane-keeping assist, and lane-departure warning (great for those long, exhausting drives); there is also a rear-camera mirror and a surround-view monitor to keep you always aware of your surroundings; and these safety features only scrape the surface of what’s available. 

Here is a quick breakdown of the interior specs:

• Front Hip Room: (in)51.65
• Front Leg Room: (in)40.82
• Second Shoulder Room: (in)52.5
• Passenger Volume: (ft³)92.8
• Second Head Room: (in)38.78
• Front Shoulder Room: (in)54.18
• Second Hip Room: (in)50.08
• Front Head Room: (in)39.58
• Second Leg Room: (in)35.75

More Features

The 2020 Buick Encore GX comes with a turbocharged I4, 1.4-liter engine and a 6-speed automatic, electronically-controlled with overdrive transmission—with driver shift control. The vehicle itself is considered an all-wheel-drive sport utility vehicle.

The four-door GX holds five passengers with ease and comfort for all, and it has a fuel economy of 24 mpg in the city, 29 highway, and a combined mpg of 26. Not bad at all, especially for a souped-up, turbocharged engine. 

Here are just a few more features to the 2020 Buick Encore GX:

• Brakes: 4-wheel antilock, 4-wheel disc
• StabiliTrak, stability control system
• Daytime Running Lamps, separate cavity, LED
• Airbags, frontal and knee for driver and front passenger

GMC Acadia: An Enduring Success

Ok, Charlotte: Here’s some potentially jaw-dropping information about the GMC Acadia. Let’s start with a question: How often does an automaker build a vehicle so successful that they do not need to update it for almost a decade? Give up? The answer to that question may be never. And yet, the GMC Acadia has been satisfying customers for nine…that’s right…nine YEARS!

                                                

Customer satisfaction in Charlotte and around the country caused GMC to make the decision to produce the GMC Acadia without changes or updates for nearly a decade. The design, drivability, safety rating and options, all created a perfect recipe for customer satisfaction.

The success of the GMC Acadia is easily explained: it’s a great vehicle that meets most, if not all, the criteria most families need and it delivers folks comfortably and safely to their destinations. And it’s been doing it better than the competition for almost a decade.

But hold on Charlotte – that’s not all! There’s big GMC Acadia news. GMC is introducing a new and improved version of the GMC Acadia in 2017. That’s something to get excited about, but consumers looking for earlier models of GMC Acadia have plenty of value to hold on to for years to come. The Acadia – both new and used – is simply the best.

The GMC Acadia has always set the bar high for competitors. GMC Acadia does the job of being a large crossover SUV that’s comfortable, spacious for passengers while retaining tons of cargo space, without being the old family van. It offers a comfortable, quiet ride, great features and the safety is unparalleled.

The new 2017 GMC Acadia is 700 pounds lighter than the previous versions. GMC says the expanded use of press-hardened, high-strength steel, allows for thinner components in some areas, without compromising strength. The 2017 GMC Acadia is actually smaller than previous versions as well. This is contrary to the trends of many other crossover vehicles and SUVs. And it is just another example of the great recipe that has made GMC Acadia a long-running success in Charlotte and everywhere else, for that matter!

Driving through Charlotte you might see GMC Acadia’s every time you turn a corner – a constant reminder of the vehicles popularity and endurance. Starting to think about what a great new or used GMC Acadia might do for you and yours? Click Liberty has the largest selection of new and used GMC Acadia’s in Charlotte and the surrounding area.
