2013 Buick Encore
If you like to drink from bottles, cans and cups at the same time, we’ve got the perfect car for you. It’s called the Buick Endcore, and it’s a small crossover that will launch in America in early 2013. That might sound like a long time to have to wait, so in case we get bored, General Motors is steadily releasing information about the car.
According to them, the Encore has ight beverage holders, storage in all four doors, four different bins in the dash, pockets in the seatbacks, an available bin beneath the front passenger seat, and even bins under the rear load floor around the spare tire.

“Regardless of a vehicle’s size, Buick has a standard for what items must fit, from iPods and smartphones, to umbrellas and much larger items like handbags,” said chief engineer Jim Danahy. “With Encore, we used every space available, big or small, in a visually pleasing and useful way.”

Extra storage space for front passengers includes a cubby in front of the gear selector, which houses a 12-volt plug and a USB jack. The Encore’s rear doors can hold half-liter bottles, while a fold-down rear armrest offers two cupholders and additional storage space.
