Does the Buick Encore have a manual transmission?

I thought that Buick didn’t make manual cars, but someone told me that the Buick Encore has a manual transmission. Is that true?

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
You’re right that Buick does not typically manufacture manual cars! While there are some exceptions to this rule, the
Buick Encore
 is not one of them—the Encore is equipped with an automatic transmission, just like most other Buick models.
However, modern Buick Encores do have an auto/manual feature. This means that the Encore’s transmission is similar to a manual transmission, but the clutch is operated by the computer, so you won’t need to learn how to drive a stick in order to operate an auto/manual car.
Considering an Encore of your own, or just hoping to save some money on your current
car insurance
 policy? Check out the
