Re: Buick Encore

so how does it compare to an sx4 crossover? rav4?

edit: those were just two vehicles I saw on the road today that looked like a smaller suv and I was wondering how the encore stacked up.

Re: Buick Encore

Not even close.

On another note, it does have 6 port holes. Shouldn't there be 4?

The Regal GS has 4.

It just doesnt fit.

Well, to me anyway.

Encore is 168.5 x 69.9 x 64.8 in.

SX4 is 162.8 x 69.1 X 63.2 in.

RAV4 dwarfs that pair in length at 178.7 (without spare tire cover) but isn't much wider at 71.5 and is shorter in height at 66.3/68.7 in. (w/o and w/ roof rails for the two-row version)
