The Buick Enclave is a large SUV vehicle with three rows of seating for up to seven passengers. With unibody construction and available FWD models, the Enclave is similar to the Honda Pilot in execution. The Buick Enclave is differentiated from its corporate siblings, the GMC Acadia and Chevrolet Traverse with more rounded styling and wood accents on the interior. A 3.6L V6 engine rated at 288-bhp is the standard engine on all models. Both FWD and AWD models are equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission. Standard equipment includes power seats and a power-operated rear tailgate. The Buick Enclave is the most expensive of the three GM crossovers with leather equipped models priced at $43,000 and up.

What Changed:

Like its siblings the Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Acadia, the Buick Enclave is updated for 2013 with new front-end styling, rear-end styling and a new interior. The new styling is identified by a more vertical front end with a more prominent grille. The updated interior has an ambient lighting detail like the LaCrosse. The 2013 model is virtually identical in exterior and interior dimensions to the 2012. The 3.6l V6 carries over producing 288-bhp.
