Which SUV Is Ready for Picture Day?
If you have your eyes on an SUV, that means you’re ready to explore Wisconsin. Whether you’re looking at blue cheese or blue snow, the Buick Encore is equipped to handle your next adventure.
A Wi-Fi® Hotspot is standard in every trim of the Buick Encore. That means, you can upload pictures from your journey and they can go viral on your way home. Encore drivers can use this to access available features like:
- Remote Access
- Connected Vehicle
- Remote vehicle start
If you’re trying to get online in the Nissan Rogue, you won’t be able to connect to a Wi-Fi® Hotspot on every trim. A Wi-Fi® Hotspot is only an available feature on the Nissan Rogue and not standard as it is with the Buick Encore. Moving on, which SUV is ready to provide you with a way to bring along what you want on your next trip?
Which SUV Has a Fond Du Attitude?
Whether you’re kayaking on Lake Winnebago or hiking around the Sheboygan Marsh Wildlife Area, you’ll find the 2022 Encore is built to handle your weekend plans.
For starters, you can opt for an available Black Roof Package that provides a finishing touch. The Encore is also equipped with integrated roof rails that can handle outdoor gear like:
- Bikes
- Kayaks
- Snowboards
While roof rails are available in the Nissan Rogue, they’re not standard on every trim. How can this change your weekend plans? You’ll only be able to fully enjoy Wisconsin throughout all four seasons when you’re driving the Buick Encore.
Which SUV Is More Agile?
The 2022 Buick Encore is more agile than the 2021 Nissan Rogue. Both SUVs can partner with available All-Wheel Drive (AWD) powertrains to deliver more traction on snow, ice, and slush. Like a wheel of cheese, the Encore’s advantage comes down to a more accommodating ratio.
The wheelbase—the horizontal bumper-to-bumper distance between front and rear wheels—is trimmer in the Buick SUV. The Encore wheelbase measures 100.6 inches.
That’s a more agile number than the 106.5 inches of the Nissan Rogue. That means, drivers will be able to slip through traffic or back into a garage with greater ease in the Buick Encore.
