Buick Enclave
The Buick Enclave is entering the seventh year of its second generation, offering comfortable seating for up to seven in exchange for conservative styling. There is only one powertrain option on the menu, namely a 3.6-litre V6 (310 horsepower) mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive comes standard, but the system needs to be manually activated. The Enclave’s future looks murky with no plans for a hybrid or fully electric variant on the table.
