2013 Buick Encore

  • The idea of a small luxury SUV wasn't one that's traditionally made much sense to American customers who bought soft-roaders for their space. But the 2013 Buick Encore bets there's enough fans willing to downsize to make a pocket-size SUV successful. Powered by a turbocharged 1.4-liter engine and based on the same platform as the Chevrolet Sonic, Buick will pitch the Encore as the official transport of empty nesters -- older buyers who want something larger than a sedan, but nothing even as bulky as a midsize SUV like the class-leading Lexus RX.
