The 2022 Buick Encore GX and 2022 Buick Envision Go Bumper-to-Bumper

2022 Buick Encore GX

With the sedan on the verge of extinction, the crossover market is hotter than fire. The 2022 Buick Encore GX is the perfect vehicle to wreak havoc on the crossover arena. The Encore GX is a little larger than the Encore, with a completely different platform, a voluptuous subcompact. Nevertheless, Buick persists in a consistent flow of luxury vehicles at a mainstream price. Moreover, the Encore GX assures Buick’s intentions with a peaceful ride and a cozy interior. 

The Encore GX holsters a 1.2-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder, and there’s also the optional 1.3-liter 3-cylinder engine which isn’t incredible. Models that carry transcend power via a continuously variable transmission (CVT), making the Encore GX seem like the Little Engine that Could. But the 9-speed automatic joined with all-wheel drive is preferred. Even with a not-so-powerful engine, the Encore GX is enjoyable with a suspension aligned with comfort.  

The Preferred (Base model) contains: 

• Cloth 
• Simulated upholstery
• Keyless entry and ignition
• 18-inch wheels

Infotainment includes:

• 8-inch touchscreen
• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto 
• Wi-Fi 
• Two USB ports 
• Satellite radio
• 6-speaker audio system

2022 Buick Envision

Be nice to the Buick Encore GX, or it might call for backup from its bigger sibling, the Buick Envision. 

The 2022 Buick Envision places itself firmly between the smallest Encore and the large Enclave. Pricing for the compact crossover is reasonably pleasant, especially since the 2022 Envision is more refined.

The Envision received a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder with some passionate horsies, 228-horsepower to be exact. But the compact crossover does not generate sporty power but a smooth power tuned to the station of tranquility.

Standard features: 

• 8-inch infotainment system 
• Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay 
• SiriusXM satellite radio 
• Active noise cancellation 

Buick Driver Confidence Plus Safety Suite: 

• Lane-keeping assist 
• Forward-collision alert
• Lane-change alert with blindspot monitoring 
• Rear cross-traffic alert
  

Which One is the Best? 

When it comes to power and space, the 2022 Buick Envision is the winner. With turbocharged 4-cylinder providing efficient horsepower and a cozy cabin. But when it comes to an efficient size and mileage, the 2022 Buick Encore GX is a clear winner. Not to mention, the Encore GX competes relatively close to the Envision on maximum cargo space. But both Buick’s are phenomenal options with the NHTSA 5-Star safety rating for good measure.
