I like it... a lot!

Hope it gets the 1.5 Turbo and 9-speed that I have in my Terrain. That's a brilliant combination.

Not coincidentally, Chevy gets a new Trailblazer that fits between the Trax and the Equinox.

Looks good. The rear is a noticeable improvement in aesthetics, especially the taillights versus the current Encore. Still, I won't buy anything with a flawed straight-GDI engine design or a turbo.

The Buick looks nice. The Chevy looks like it's trying too hard.

Interesting that they chose to keep the Encore name, especially with it being redesigned, larger, and more modern compared to the current Encore.

If I was ever going to lease a small SUV, then the Encore would be high on my list. I agree with KALISPEL in that the rear has a much-improved look. The current Encore rear looks too much like the Trax.
