If you’re on the hunt for a luxury three-row SUV, make sure you test drive a Buick Enclave. Every model is packed with features, including QuietTuning technology and leather seats. We’ll compare the available trims to help you choose the Enclave that’s right for you.

First Class from Start to Finish

The Buick Enclave is a refined SUV with a rugged side. Every model comes standard with a robust 3.6L V6 engine and can tow up to 5,000 pounds. The interior is exceptionally versatile, with seating for up to seven and folding second-and third-row seats offering as much as 97.4 cubic feet of cargo space. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also standard, and you can connect them wirelessly.

The Enclave is available in three trims: Essence, Premium, and Avenir. What sets each one apart? Let’s take a look.

Essence: Taking Base Models to a New Level

Base trims often get a bad rap for lacking a lot of creature comforts. But the Enclave Essence trim offers a very impressive list of features at a very agreeable price point. You’ll get plenty of “smart” features like a hands-free liftgate, heated front seats, and an eight-way power driver’s seat.

It’s also loaded with premium safety technology, including a following distance indicator, front pedestrian braking, collision alert, and lane-change and side blind-zone alert. And for sound-sensitive people, the Enclave Essence has a safety alert seat that vibrates to warn you of hazards.

Premium in Every Way

With all of the cool stuff in the Enclave Essence, how does Buick follow that up in the Premium trim? With a set of features truly worthy of the Premium name, including a two-driver memory package, an upgraded Bose 10-speaker sound system, and a high-definition surround-view camera. The middle trim also adds the Buick Navigation System and a Head-up display that puts all of that helpful information right in your line of sight.

The back rows get an upgrade, too, with heated second-row seats and power-folding third-row bench seat that makes loading cargo a breeze. If you have a little more to spend, the Premium trim adds a lot of value while still coming in at around $50k.

Avenir: Signature Sumptuousness

Avenir is Buick’s top trim. The Enclave Avenir distinguishes itself from the Essence and Premium with signature style features like 20-inch aluminum wheels with a stunning pearl nickel finish and a distinctively detailed front grille.

Buick’s most refined SUV model offers your choice of elegant interior themes: Whisper Beige or Ebony. And it adds a power moonroof and a rear fixed skylight so even the passengers in the third row can enjoy natural light.

The Enclave Avenir also offers enhanced safety and driver assistance features such as automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and Rainsense automatic wipers.

If you’re looking for an SUV that blends sumptuous style and practicality, you’ll want to spend some time test driving the Buick Enclave Avenir.

A Luxurious Lineup

No matter which trim you choose, the Buick Enclave delivers unmatched power, comfort, and elegance. Whether you choose the Essence or go all-in on luxury and drive home in a Premium or Avenir, you’ll get a spacious, mid-size SUV with an impressive variety of features. Test drive all three at your local Buick dealer.
