Anyone shopping for a new three-row crossover SUV in Sudbury who can’t decide between mainstream and luxury, or midsize and full-size models needs to check out the 2024 Buick Enclave. The recently refreshed Enclave bridges the divide between luxury and non-luxury rivals. The Enclave’s generous proportions stretch its midsize classification very close to a full-size designation. Add upscale quality materials and incredibly generous standard specifications into the mix, and the Enclave makes a compelling case for itself.
Many of today’s vehicles make impressive use of their available dimensions. However, the 2024 Buick Enclave takes things to another level, offering shoppers a cavernous interior that focuses on space, comfort, and luxury. You can’t argue with basic facts and dimensions, regardless of how well-packaged some rivals may be. Two numbers that tell you a lot about the interior of the Enclave are its passenger and cargo volumes.
The 2024 Enclave boasts a passenger volume of 4,454 litres and 2,758 litres of cargo volume when the second and third-row seats are folded away. Even when all the seats are up and occupied, the Buick still has an impressive 668 litres of cargo volume behind the third-row seats.
You don’t get a smooth, quiet, and luxurious experience if the engine in your vehicle needs to be pushed to its limits to wring the performance you need out of it. There are several aspects of the 2024 Enclave that make the ride everything you’d expect from a vehicle of this quality, and it starts with an appropriately potent powertrain. There are three models to choose from in the 2024 Buick Enclave family: the entry-level Essence, mid-range Premium, and top-of-the-line Avenir.
All models get the same drivetrain, a 3.6-litre V-6 with 310 horsepower and 266 lb.-ft. of torque available, that gets to the wheels through a standard nine-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is standard with all three trim levels for excellent road traction on slippery surfaces and extra grip when cornering. The engine also features stop/start technology that cuts the engine when stationary to help improve fuel economy.
To compile a list of the 2024 Buick Enclave’s standard equipment, you will need a long sheet of paper and a pen with plenty of ink. The Essence comes with standard features that wouldn’t be out of place in a top-of-the-range model from a mass-market rival, and the Premium and Avenir models get even more generously equipped in their standard forms. The Premium and Avenir get standard perforated leather upholstery, a head-up display, an 8.0-inch digital driver information display, a 10-speaker Bose sound system, HD Surround Vision, heated and ventilated front seats, and more.
Safety is another area where the Enclave excels, with all models getting the Buick Driver Confidence Plus suite of advanced safety and driver-assistance technologies. The package includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Following Distance Indicator, Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, IntelliBeam Auto High Beams, Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Front & Rear Park Assist.
With the most cargo volume in its class, a long list of standard safety features, its premium interior, and standard equipment levels that put the competition to shame, the 2024 Buick Enclave is hard to beat in the three-row crossover SUV segment.
