The larger AWD 1.3L turbo comes in at 155 hp 5600 rpm. The standard engine is a 1.2L turbocharged three-cylinder, providing 137 hp. The AWD Encore has two engines available.

of the owner’s manual confirms that, and gives seven easy steps to flat tow behind an RV. It must be an all-wheel-drive (AWD), not a front-wheel-drive (FWD), vehicle to be flat towable. No issues up the on-ramp or merging on the interstate. It was smaller than I wanted, didn’t have many bells and whistles, and the ride was rough. The 2020 Buick Encore GX AWD is entirely separate from the original Encore. This week, I decided to take a look at the Buick Encore GX AWD.įirst, I made a mistake and thought one Buick Encore was the same as any other Buick Encore, and so test drove the Buick Encore.
