The Buick Eclate is a full-size three-row SUV, with lots of power and a great price. This spacious crossover is available in three trim levels: Avenir Premium, Essence and Premium. Each has a range of features and options, and is priced slightly below the competition. The base model starts from $46,195.
The Buick Enclave has a roomy cabin that is comfortable to ride in. The Enclave also features blind-spot monitor, rear cross traffic alert, lane departure warning and automatic emergency braking. There are also three available seats in the third row, allowing you to fit eight passengers in the vehicle.
It's hard not to see why Enclave isn’t a top choice midsize crossover SUV. It doesn't provide the high-end luxury that you would expect. It prioritizes comfort and practicality over new technology. The ride is smooth.
The 2022 Buick E-Class received a few minor updates, including a new steering knob and LED lighting. You can add an optional second-row seat bench seat to increase the vehicle's seating capacity to eight. An optional Avenir technology option adds premium suspension and some driver assistance features.
For drivers, the Buick Enclave features a quiet ride, an intuitive steering system, and a roomy interior. Additionally, it has a standard nine-speed automatic transmission and a powerful V6 engine. Although the engine isn’t impressive, the Enclave emits a mildly sportsy exhaust note.
Buick Enclave offers wireless Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay. Wireless connectivity can also be found on the touchscreen. OnStar, Amazon Alexa, and 360-degree camera views are all part of the infotainment program.
Standard safety features in the Buick Enclave include forward and rear parking sensors, lane-keeping assist, and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection. Blind-spot monitoring, blind-spot warning, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, surround-view cameras, and automatic high-beams are all included.
You have two options for Buick Enclave: front-wheel drive or full-wheel drive. Front-wheel drive gets an EPA-estimated 23 mpg highway/19 mpg city. All wheel drive only gets one mpg. All-wheel drive has a slight fuel-economy penalty but it improves performance on slippery roads.
Buick Enclave has other features, including wireless phone compatibility and Wi-Fi Hotspot. It also includes a 8.0-inch touchscreen that displays a color Head up Display. The second and third rows can be folded for extra storage. Even with the absence of active safety technologies, Buick Enclave remains a viable option for anyone looking to purchase a stylish and spacious three row SUV.
Overall, the Buick Encore is a good vehicle to drive. But, you might want to consider other options if you are looking for a stylish and luxurious SUV. Both the Hyundai Palisade (or Kia Telluride) are more affordable options. Luxury-minded customers might also like the Acura MDX or Audi Q7.
