I could get behind the Encore GX more if it had the 1.5 litre four cylinder from the GMC Terrain in it. At least as an option. That would also probably get better real world MPG than the wheezer 3 popper.

Most vehicles don't need the cooling capacity provided by gaping mouths we see on vehicles today. Trucks and SUVs that can tow, sure. But If you notice all the SUVs/CUVs with sub-5,000 lbs tow ratings with these massive grilles, most of the grille is false. (Explorer, Traverse, Acadia, etc.). Aurora got all the cooling needed for a DOHC V8 just from the scoop at the bottom of the car. There's no way a tiny 1.5T in a GMC Terrain needs this much grille real estate to keep cool.
