The Buick Encore here at Firelands Chevrolet Buick in Norwalk, OH may be the most compact SUV in its lineup, but that doesn’t mean it lacks the full array of safety features. Designed with Buick’s Driver Confidence safety suite at the heart of its occupant protection measures, this SUV offers both passenger security and driver assistance.
Designed with city driving or heavy freeway traffic conditions in mind, the Driver Confidence system includes collision warning and mitigation features, like alarms for obstructions to the front or rear of the vehicle, front pedestrian automatic braking, and seatbelt pretentioners.
The Buick Encore is constantly monitoring blind spots for traffic, sounding a warning should you indicate the intention of moving into an occupied lane. It can also keep itself correctly oriented within the lane, reducing unintended weaving that could result in an accident. At night, automated high beams raise and lower without driver input after sensing oncoming traffic.
