As the new Buick Encore baby crossover is gearing up for its early 2013 market launch, GM released pricing details of the car. The Encore starts from $24,950 for the base model, bu there are four trim levels to choose from. So a range topping Encore will set you back nearly $29,000, and that’s before you hit the options list.
The base model is pretty well equipped with items like QuietTuning with Bose Active Noise Cancellation, 18-inch wheels, a rearview camera and a seven-inch, high-resolution, full-color display radio with IntelliLink system.
One step above that is the Encore with the Convenience Group which adds dual-zone climate control, a 120-volt outlet, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, remote start and fog lights for $25,760.
Next is the Encore Leather Group, which as its name suggests offers eather-trimmed upholstery, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a power passenger seat and driver’s seat memory functions, in addition to all the features listed above.
The range topping Encore is the Premium. This one gets all of the above, plus Lane Departure Warning, a seven-speaker Bose premium audio system with a subwoofer, rain-sensing windshield wipers, a cargo net and area cargo mat. The Premium Encore costs $28,940.
All the prices include a $750 destination charge. All-wheel drive is available for all models for $1,500.
Optional extras:
- Navigation ($795),
- 18-inch chrome-clad wheels ($995),
- Sunroof ($800),
- Bose premium audio system ($595, but standard on Premium Package).
