There is a range of engines available for the Encore from 1.4-liter through to 1.8-liter with the choice of either gasoline or diesel fuel and a 5 or 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox.
Alongside the choices of engine and transmission, you also have the choice of front, rear or four-wheel-drive for your Encore.
The second-generation model that was released (everywhere but the North American market who are still being sold generation 1) is based on a platform designed for emerging markets with a 3 cylinder turbo gasoline engine.
Safety ratings from IIHS are on the whole above average with the car being rated medium for headlights and everything else as good.
All cars are manufactured in South Korea and China and sales have beaten the previous year every year since release in the USA.
