Auto loans: the 2023 Buick Encore
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2023 Buick Encore for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 2023 Buick Encore, here are the facts that matter.
Recalls and complaints
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
What the figures tell you
The 1.2L 3-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Combined fuel use is 7.8 L/100 km: about 23 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $120.90 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
What the Encore is like
Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Try before you buy
Rent first, buy later: a week with the Encore answers the big questions. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Encore for a week and see how it fits your life.
The cost of driving it
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.09 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $120.90 at our price setting.
Picking a year and a trim
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
