Buick Encore — Gamma II (2013–2022)

GM Authority's Encore page places the Encore on GM's Gamma II platform from the 2013 model year, and the NICB VIN manuals list it in front- and all-wheel drive: Base, Convenience Group, Leather Group and Premium Group series for 2013 to 2016 (with a Sport Touring Group from 2016), Base, Preferred, Preferred II, Essence, Premium and Sport Touring in the 2017 manual, fewer series in later manuals, and the Preferred alone for 2022. The rows come from GM's 2013 color and trim page and 2014 fleet order guide pages (Wayback Machine captures in the archive) and from GM's 2018 and 2019 order guides (copies posted by GM Authority, now captured in the archive and cited by page); they show the turbo 1.4L LUV with a 6 speed automatic as standard in every year read, joined in 2018 and 2019 by the direct-injection 1.4L LE2 as an option, which GM Authority's 2021 page says replaced the LUV for 2021. Trim names in Notes follow each year's guide: 2014 Encore 1SB, Convenience (1SD), Leather (1SL) and Premium (1SN); 2018 Encore 1SV, Preferred (1SB), Sport Touring (1SH), Preferred II (1SD), Essence (1SL) and Premium (1SN); 2019 the same without Preferred II and Premium. Gaps: no GM option list for 2015 to 2017 or 2020 to 2022 is in the archive, so those years carry no rows except where GM Authority's 2021 page names a code (the LE2 2021 row, a GM Authority article rather than a GM document), and the 2013 capture is the color and trim page only.
