In early 2013, Canada will be welcoming a brand new crossover, luxury SUV – the Buick Encore. The five- passenger SUV is a new addition to the small crossover segment.  The Encore offers great drivability, easy parking, and effortless manoeuvring with its compact size and high driving position. The cargo and storage space is surprising, particularly when the passenger seats are folded flat – longer items will fit easily in the hatch.

Inside the Encore is the active Quiet Tuning system, which includes a series of sound reducing items like an acoustic laminated windshield, “quiet-tuned” tires and even active noise cancelling through the crossover’s audio system.

Something to take note of is the technology in the Encore. The Intellilink system is a voice-activated, colour connected infotainment system. The large, full-colour seven-inch LCD display is located centrally on the front dash of the Encore. Intellilink connects your smartphone and allows you to access satellite and internet radio via voice activation.

Not only is the new Buick Encore bringing you technology but safety as well – with 10 air bags standard on all models. Also available are the new Forward Collision Alert and Lane Departure Warning.

Other available features include remote start, rainsense wipers, rear-view camera, memory seats and mirrors, and front and rear park assist.  

The Buick Encore will be available for sale in Canada in early 2013.
