Buick Encore GX 2024: The SUV that stands out
In the compact SUV market, several models compete to attract Quebec drivers. The Buick Encore GX 2024, a premium option from GMC Chevrolet Buick Baie-Comeau, stands out against popular rivals like the Mitsubishi RVR, Subaru Crosstrek, and Hyundai Kona. This article delves into what sets the Buick Encore GX apart and why it could be your next vehicle.
Balanced performance for everyday needs
When choosing a vehicle, performance and fuel efficiency are among the most important criteria for buyers. The Buick Encore GX 2024, powered by a gasoline engine producing 155 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque, delivers moderate yet perfectly adequate power for daily use. Its generous torque ensures a smooth drive, ideal for Baie-Comeau roads and urban commutes.
In comparison, the Mitsubishi RVR 2024 offers 168 horsepower and a slightly lower torque of 167 lb-ft. While it has a slight edge in power, its fuel consumption averages 9.4 L/100 km combined, compared to just 8.6 L/100 km for the Buick Encore GX. In terms of efficiency, the Buick takes the lead, making it an excellent choice for budget-conscious drivers at the pump.
The Subaru Crosstrek 2024, with 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque, initially seems to surpass the Buick in raw power. However, this increased performance results in higher fuel consumption (8.8 L/100 km combined). Moreover, the Buick Encore GX compensates for this with exceptional handling and superior comfort, key features for drivers seeking a balance between driving pleasure and efficiency.
As for the Hyundai Kona 2024, it offers an impressive 195 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. However, this power comes at the cost of higher fuel consumption, averaging 9.1 L/100 km. The Buick Encore GX 2024, by contrast, focuses on a more balanced approach, offering superior fuel economy at just 8.6 L/100 km combined. Combined with smooth handling and ample torque, the Buick emerges as a more rational and economical choice for daily commutes and long trips without compromising on comfort or reliability.
Warranty: Peace of mind for the long term
Another critical criterion for buyers is the warranty offered by the manufacturer. The Mitsubishi RVR and Hyundai Kona provide comprehensive warranties of 60 months or 100,000 km, along with powertrain coverage of 10 years or 160,000 km for the RVR and 5 years or 100,000 km for the Kona. In comparison, the Buick Encore GX is covered by a basic warranty of 48 months or 80,000 km, supplemented by an extended powertrain and roadside assistance warranty of 72 months or 110,000 km.
While the Buick’s warranty may initially seem shorter, its reputation for reliability and the quality of after-sales service at GMC Chevrolet Buick Baie-Comeau more than make up for this difference. Buick Encore GX owners can count on personalized support and exceptional maintenance, reinforcing confidence in their purchase.
Comfort and advanced technology: A superior experience
The interior of the Buick Encore GX stands out with its elegance and attention to detail. High-quality materials, generous passenger space, and advanced technological options like wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration create a modern and enjoyable driving experience.
In comparison, the Mitsubishi RVR offers a functional but less refined interior, while the Subaru Crosstrek prioritizes a rugged approach at the expense of sophisticated design. The Hyundai Kona, though modern, provides slightly less rear passenger space, which can be an issue on long family trips.
Tailored to the needs of Baie-Comeau’s community
Residents of Baie-Comeau and surrounding areas have specific expectations when it comes to choosing their vehicles. Whether it’s braving harsh winters, navigating urban areas safely, or exploring Quebec’s stunning landscapes, the Buick Encore GX meets these needs.

Moreover, flexible financing options offered by GMC Chevrolet Buick Baie-Comeau help buyers find a solution that fits their budget. Whether you’re a young professional, an entrepreneur, or an industry worker, the Buick Encore GX offers exceptional value for every dollar spent.
