The GM Authority Take

The Encore’s record-setting March sales performance goes to show just the consumer market shift towards crossover utility vehicles (CUVs) over other vehicles such as sedans and coupes. The same can be said of the Encore’s platform mate, the Chevrolet Trax, whose sales increased 25.7 percent to 6,498 units in March.
