File:1985 Renault Encore 3-Door Hatchback.jpg
Summary
The 1.7 L fuel injection (EFI) engine with 5-speed transmission was introduced in 1985 as optional on all versions except the base car. It developed 96 pound-feet (130 N·m) of torque at 3000 rpm and 77.5 hp (58 kW; 79 PS) at 5000 rpm.
How Motor Trend made the Renault Alliance (sedan version) "Car of the Year" in 1983 I will never know. Their endorsement of the car was the reason I brought the Encore in 1985. I remember pulling up to an identical Encore in 1986 only to have the other driver roll down the window and say, "My condolences on the car".
The car was photographed on Mrs. Dasher's farm in the middle of Columbia, MD which is now a well-developed residential area.
The car cost $8400 in 1985.
