The 2025 Buick Enclave is a midsize 3-row SUV that falls somewhere between mainstream and luxury in terms of both quality and price. A close relative of the Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia, the Buick Enclave has all of the daily practicality of its GM stablemates but with a touch more elegance. From its bold styling to its agreeable interior and supremely quiet ride, the Buick Enclave is a serene way to transport families who like the idea of a premium SUV without a luxury SUV’s price tag.
The Buick Enclave enters its third generation for the 2025 model year. It’s the first-ever Enclave without a V6 engine under the hood; a turbocharged 4-cylinder powers this one. Although the engine’s noise is a bit jarring when you’re expecting the growl of a V6, this turbocharged mill makes more power and torque than the previous generation while returning similar fuel economy numbers. This generation represents a big technological step forward for the Enclave. In addition to its standard 30-inch display spanning the dash, the 2025 Enclave is the first Buick model to offer the Super Cruise hands-free driving system (which we love) as an option.
A big interior, roomy third row, and good cargo space make the Buick Enclave a practical vehicle for families or anyone who just needs a lot of space. Meanwhile, its upscale look and feel, especially in the well-equipped Avenir trim, make it a real competitor to pricier SUVs from luxury brands. For buyers who are budget-conscious but also have a taste for the finer things in life, the Buick Enclave is in the sweet spot of luxury and value.
