In the United States, all versions of the 2018 Buick Encore run on regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher, commonly found at most gas stations. It is important not to use gasoline with an octane rating below 87. Generally, using a higher octane gas than what is recommended in your owner's manual won't benefit your car's performance, speed, mileage, or cleanliness. Your driving habits can significantly impact your fuel efficiency; aggressive acceleration uses more fuel, and unnecessary braking wastes the fuel you spent to speed up. To improve fuel economy and extend the life of your vehicle's components, drive smoothly, anticipate traffic movements, maintain a steady speed, and practice gentle acceleration, cornering, and braking.
