Sneak Peek Up Date: 2013 Buick Encore


Buick will unveil the 2013 Encore crossover at the Detroit Auto Show next week, but that hasn’t stopped it from giving us another tease: it has posted the third of four pieces of an Encore photo to its Facebook page.

What can we see now as opposed to the last two times Buick released teasers? For starters, we can now see the entire front clip, which takes its waterfall grille and projector headlight visual cues from other Buick models like the Verano. If you squint at it for a while, you might see a bit of Saturn Vue visual DNA in the front bumper, too, although the Vue is dead and its surviving Captiva sibling is built atop a larger platform.

What else do we know? Very little–we know it will be smaller and less expensive than the Enclave crossover, and will offer four-cylinder powerplants. We also hear that it will be very quiet–like the Verano the Encore will feature Buick’s QuietTuning technology, which promises to keep road noise at bay.

We’ll hopefully see the final quadrant of the photo–along with the actual car–over the course of the next week.
