It's now Buick Enclave's turn to get a makeover, and it was about time. The American manufacturer has played its cards well here by opting for a similar aesthetic signature to that of its other models in the lineup. Buick has experienced a significant surge in popularity since the arrival of the new generation of models. Now that the Enclave has undergone its extreme transformation, we can truly say that the American manufacturer's lineup is complete.
The first thing that catches the eye is the immense grille at the front of the SUV. It is bordered by two angular pillars, which characterize the brand's new aesthetic signature. Moreover, that's not the only novelty. The model's rounded lines have been reworked to give it a more slender silhouette, which is quite attractive. Add to that new wheels and flamboyant colors, and you have a Buick Enclave that is truly desirable for the first time in its existence. The rear end is square, and the taillights are connected by a long luminous strip in the middle. Personally, I believe that the exterior design of the 2025 Buick Enclave is a success across the board.
A More Modern Interior
Unsurprisingly, the Enclave significantly benefits from the same 30-inch screen found on the dashboard of other models in the lineup. Interestingly, this is paired with the standard Google multimedia system. Its design is quite unique with its rounded corners, which nevertheless gives a nice nod to the brand's design tradition. The new interior of the Buick Enclave offers a more elegant and luxurious finish than ever before. In fact, with the new logo, it almost feels like you're in a prestige model, which is certainly a good thing for the brand. The Avenir version will feature high-end equipment including a Bose Performance Series audio system, heads-up display, and a panoramic sunroof.
Excellent news on the technology front as the 2025 Buick Enclave can be equipped with Super Cruise, one of the most advanced driver assistance technologies on the market. To give you an idea, vehicles equipped with it are capable of performing lane changes by themselves on the highway.
A New Powertrain
Buick has finally dropped the ancient V6 engine that was found in the previous generation Enclave. The new model is powered by a 2.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that produces 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque. This engine is paired with a new 8-speed automatic transmission, and all-wheel drive is offered as standard.
The new Buick Enclave is expected to hit the market in the coming months. It's a model that we eagerly anticipate.
