That Buick's pint-size crossover was due for a refresh comes as little surprise, but we bet the folks in Detroit would rather we not have seen the 2017 Encore until its formal debut later this month at the 2016 New York Auto Show. Instead, the updated 2017 Buick Encore has leaked onto Chinese...

BMW’s current model lineup is a quagmire. Sure, to the brand’s enthusiasts it’s a nice, ordered progression of models and choices; but to others it’s a muddle of models, body styles, trim versions, and powertrain variants that can seem difficult to parse. The 2016 BMW X4...
