  • Maintenance (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    Maintenance costs for the 2018 Encore Preferred are about average for its class. Parts are readily available, and routine services are straightforward. However, some specific repairs might be slightly more expensive due to it being a Buick, though not excessively so.
  • Technology (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The technology in the 2018 Encore Preferred is functional but not cutting-edge. It includes a user-friendly infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. However, advanced driver-assistance features are limited or optional, and the graphics can feel a bit dated compared to newer models.
  • Comfort (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    Comfort is a strong suit for the Encore Preferred. The ride is generally smooth, absorbing most road imperfections well. The seats are supportive and comfortable for short to medium trips, and the cabin is relatively quiet for its class, contributing to a pleasant driving experience.
  • Dynamics (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The 2018 Buick Encore Preferred offers adequate dynamics for city driving, with light steering and a compact size making it easy to maneuver and park. However, it can feel underpowered on highways and exhibits noticeable body roll in turns, lacking the sporty feel of some competitors.
