So let’s get right down to it. What will you find with a used Buick Encore GX for sale when you pop the hood? In terms of engines, you’ve got two efficient options. There’s a 1.2L three-cylinder engine that cranks out 137 horsepower. If you need more juice than that, opt for the 1.3-liter with 155 horsepower. The smaller of the two engines sends power to the ground with a CVT transmission and FWD only. The 1.3-liter opens up the door to an optional nine-speed automatic and AWD system. Both engines are turbocharged, which means you’ll enjoy plenty of acceleration and torque when it’s time to get up and go.
