Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2025 Buick Encore worth?
A 2025 Buick Encore has a median retail value of $20,694, with most appraised between $18,599 and $24,923. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $4,955 across 23 recent sales — the middle 50% between $4,350 and $6,400.
Why is the 2025 Buick Encore so cheap at auction?

For the 2025 Buick Encore that gap runs about 4.2× — $20,694 retail against a $4,955 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
