2023 Buick Enclave

There are three trim levels available for the Enclave, and each has its own unique features to consider. At the base level, you'll find the Essence, which seats seven people and comes with 18-inch alloy wheels and automatic on/off LED headlights. Even a hands-free foot-activated power rear liftgate with LED projection is standard. If you're looking to upgrade, the next trim level is the Premium. This model features a number of upgraded interior features as well as power-folding exterior mirrors and a washer for the rear camera. The top-level Enclave is known as the Avenir, and it sports quite a few exciting new features like 20-inch wheels, a dual-panel moonroof, and rain-sensing wipers.

The Enclave has only one engine option available, but it's all the engine you'll ever need for this SUV. It's a 3.6-liter V-6 that boasts an impressive 310 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque. It comes paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, so it's easy to take full control of all the power at your disposal. Maintaining control of all that power is easy thanks to the available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system, which automatically engages to direct engine power to the wheels that need the most power and traction.

As you might expect from a luxury SUV, the Enclave offers a smooth ride that's responsive and easy to control. You and your passengers are sure to enjoy how comfortable the ride is, and this SUV manages to take curves with minimal body lean. If that wasn't already enough, the Enclave also boasts an impressive 5,000-pound towing capacity when properly equipped, so you can take some extra cargo with you on your next adventure.

Inside the Enclave, you'll find everything you'd expect from a luxury SUV and more. There's room enough for seven people to sit comfortably inside, and features like leather upholstery, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel are all standard. Plus, with 38.3 inches of legroom in the back, even adults can sit comfortably. If you're more interested in cargo space, the Enclave offers a total of 57.7 cubic feet with 23.6 cubic feet available with the rear seats up. The tech is also quite impressive with a standard 8-inch touchscreen interface that comes with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Given the popularity of SUVs as family vehicles, it should come as no surprise that the Enclave is loaded with safety features. Lane-keep assist with lane-departure warning and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection are standard even on the base model, along with IntelliBeam auto high beams. Upgrades like adaptive cruise control are available on higher trim levels and with special options packages.
