• Reliability (4)

  The 2017 Buick Encore generally has a good reputation for reliability. Owners often report few major issues, and the powertrain is well-proven. Regular maintenance is key to its longevity, and parts are readily available.
• Maintenance (4)
  4 out of 5 stars
  Maintenance costs for the 2017 Encore Preferred are typically average for the subcompact SUV segment. Routine service is straightforward, and parts are not excessively expensive. Its commonality with other GM vehicles helps keep service accessible.
• Technology (3)
  3 out of 5 stars
  The technology in the 2017 Encore Preferred is functional but not cutting-edge. It includes Buick's IntelliLink infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, which are good features. However, the interface can sometimes be a bit slow to respond, and advanced driver-assist features are limited.
• Comfort (4)
  4 out of 5 stars
  Comfort is a strong suit for the Encore, especially in the Preferred trim. The seats are supportive and well-cushioned, and the cabin is surprisingly quiet for its class, contributing to a pleasant driving experience on most roads. Rear passenger space is a bit tight for adults on longer trips.
• Dynamics (3)
  3 out of 5 stars
  The 2017 Buick Encore Preferred offers adequate dynamics for city driving, with light steering and a compact size making it easy to maneuver. However, it can feel underpowered on highways, and the ride quality, while generally smooth, can be a bit floaty over larger bumps.
