The Enclave is a sleek new crossover SUV in Buick's lineup. It replaces the stodgy Rendezvous, which was never a big seller for Buick. With a 275-bhp 3.6L V-6 and 6-speed automatic, the Enclave has a competitive powertrain in the hot crossover segment. Room to seat up to eight passengers comfortably allows the Enclave to replace a minivan for style-conscious customers, while its semi-reasonable fuel consumption should appeal to full-size SUV owners.

What Changed:

The Enclave is a large crossover SUV with luxury styling and room for seven passengers. Although the Enclave is part of a trio of similar vehicles, it wears distinctive styling that sets it apart from its siblings the Saturn Outlook and the GMC Acadia. Power is provided by a 275-bhp, 3.6L V6. Both FWD and AWD are offered.
