The six-speed automatic, front-wheel drive version of the Encore received an EPA fuel economy estimate of 25 m.p.g. in the city and 33 m.p.g. on the highway for a combined rating of 28 m.p.g.

The EPA estimated that the average driver would spend about $1,900 per year on gasoline for the Encore.

GM bragged that the 2013 Ford Escape’s combined EPA fuel economy rating is 26 m.p.g. while Chrysler Group’s Jeep Compass’ combined rating is 25 m.p.g. GM also boasted that the Encore beats the Mini Countryman S and Volkswagen Tiguan on combined fuel economy.
