Van rental with this car
Searching for van rental? Here is the 2017 Buick Encore: what it is like and how to rent it. Seven seats or more take a whole group in one vehicle.
The figures, translated
The 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo is what moves it, with front-wheel drive. 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.
Its combined rating is 8.1 L/100 km, which means roughly 24 litres for 300 km. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $37.68 at our price setting.
Good uses for the Encore
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Living with the Encore
As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier. NHTSA's Canadian figures put it at 4.27 m long. Parking on city streets is easy.
