2022 Encore Exterior
Even eight years after its launch, the Buick Encore remains a chunky, attractive subcompact crossover. This is mostly due to the extensive facelift in 2017, which made the crossover look a lot more modern than the original design launched back in 2013. Buick offers a lot on the Encore, design-wise. The Encore Preferred comes standard with 18-inch alloy wheels, roof-mounted side rails, tinted glass, body-color door handles with a chrome strip, and LED daytime running lights. It can also be equipped with a power moonroof and roof rack cross rails.

Dimensions
The Encore's dimensions are perfectly suited to the inner-city driving it was built for. It has a 100.6-inch wheelbase and a total body length of 168.35 inches. It's 70.1 inches wide and 65.25 inches tall. This means it's both easy to see out of and park.
With just 6.22 inches of ground clearance, the Encore was never meant for serious off-roading.
In its front-wheel-drive configuration, the Buick weighs in at 3,237 pounds, while the all-wheel-drive models weigh 3,358 lbs.

Exterior Colors
The Encore Preferred is available in six colors. Summit White is the only no-cost color and four metallic colors, all retailing for $495, are available. They are Quicksilver, Ebony Twilight, Cinnabar, and Dark Moon Blue. The most expensive color option is the White Frost Tricoat, costing $1,095. Not only is it an expensive option, but it's also an extremely tricky finish to maintain as it picks up minor scratches very quickly.
