The Buick Infotainment System puts media and communications under your control through its eight-inch diagonal color touchscreen. Tell Connected Navigation where you want to go and it delivers turn-by-turn directions for the fastest route to your destination.

Wireless connections to your compatible smartphone come through Apple CarPlay™ or Android Auto™, so you can send and receive text messages, make or answer phone calls, or access selected apps while your hands are still on the wheel. Ask Amazon Alexa to play music, check your calendar, or add items to a shopping cart. When your smartphone needs power, forget cables and ports. Just lay it on the Wireless Smartphone Charger.

Up to seven devices can browse the Internet at the same time using the built-in 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot. When you want some entertainment, switch to one of the over 150 SiriusXM® Radio channels that offer ad-free music, exclusive celebrity talk, or live pro-sports. Check out driver info such as speed, fuel level, and tire pressure on the 4.2-inch multicolor Buick Driver Information Center.

The 2021 Buick Encore GX protects your drive with the following driver assists.

• Forward Collision Alert tells you if you're following a vehicle too closely, or if you're about to hit it.

• Automatic Emergency Braking can enhance your braking or provide a hard stop if you're traveling at speeds below 50 mph to prevent an accident.

• Front Pedestrian Braking gives you the same benefit when a person is in front of your vehicle.

• Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning relies on brief steering wheel nudges to let you know that you are wandering across the road without activating a turn signal.

• Rear Cross-Traffic Alert warns you of any vehicles trying to cross your path as you reverse out of a parking spot.

• Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert informs you of any vehicles that are entering your blind spot as you try to change lanes.

• Automatic Parking Assist with Breaking looks for perpendicular or parallel parking spaces and then stairs your vehicle into it as you control gear shifts.

• HD Surround Vision reveals a virtual top-down view of what's around you to make tight maneuvers easier.
