Introduction: Within 300,000, if you want to choose a 7-seat medium and large SUV, or a joint venture brand, Buick Encore Banner is one of the few choices. Its low-end version (2022 652T two-wheel drive premium) official guidance price of 299,900, combined with terminal discounts, the current Encore flag in many parts of the country (including Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, etc.), has no less than 30,000 discounts. After counting the discounts, the second low-end (2022 652T four-wheel drive premium) price is more than 280,000, and the specific price is subject to the local dealer. In fact, whether there are offers or no offers, individuals recommend the four-wheel drive version, of course, the price is the key.
Because from the perspective of model distribution, The Encore Banner is only a two-wheel drive version with a low-end configuration, and a four-wheel-drive version from the second-lowest-end, and the price difference between the low-end and the low-end is only 15,000. It is worth mentioning that in addition to the different driver forms of the two versions, the three major parts and configurations are the same.
It is also equipped with a 2.0T engine (equipped with a 48V light hybrid system) with a maximum power of 237 horsepower, matching a 9AT gearbox. According to official data, the two-wheel drive version has a zero-hundred acceleration time of 8.6 seconds, while the four-wheel drive version has 9 seconds. In terms of fuel consumption, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the four-wheel drive version is 7.5L (the top version is 7.7L), and the two-wheel drive version is 7.3L. From the perspective of acceleration performance and fuel consumption, the gap between the two is not large.
The reason why I recommend the four-wheel drive version is that, referring to many other models, the four-wheel drive version is at least 20,000 or 30,000 more expensive than the low-end two-wheel drive version, while the Encore banner is only 15,000 difference, from the perspective of cost performance, 15,000 more can have a four-wheel drive system, I think it is worth it. You know, this is a medium and large SUV, the length of the car is nearly 5 meters, there are four-wheel drive and no four-wheel drive, there will be differences in passing sex. It also includes daily driving stability, such as wet and slippery roads on rainy days, etc. In the case of full load, four-wheel drive will be relatively more stable. If it is only the level of compact SUVs, it is also the positioning of urban SUVs, and sometimes two-wheel drive is more suitable.
Finally, let's talk about the configuration, even if it is the four-wheel drive entry-level version, its configuration is not low: including LED far and near light, adaptive far and near light function, 20-inch wheels, parallel line assistance, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, active braking, 360-degree panoramic image, reversing side warning, panoramic sunroof, electric trunk, trunk memory function, main co-driver electric adjustment, front seat heating/ventilation, main driver seat memory function, 8-inch central control screen, vehicle networking, rear independent air conditioning, etc.

Of course, combined with the preferential Encore banner, the price of more than 280,000 to buy a four-wheel drive version, the cost performance is still quite prominent. In horizontal comparison, more than 200,000 joint venture (7 seats) SUVs are basically medium-sized SUVs, such as Ruijie, Oncove PLUS, Highlander and so on. The advantage of the Encore banner is that the size is larger, the configuration is not low, and the power is not high and low. Therefore, if you want a large space 7-seat SUV under a limited budget (within 300,000), the 4WD version of the Encore Banner after the discount is worth recommending.
