The Buick Enclave provides smooth, sedan-like performance, and is even fun to drive. Thanks to a horsepower boost in 2009, the Enclave also provides more than adequate acceleration. Still, a few reviewers would like to see a more powerful V8 engine option.
The Enclave comes with a 3.6-liter V6 engine that makes 288 horsepower. It's paired with a six-speed automatic transmission that some test drivers say is slow to downshift. Test drivers find power adequate enough, but some wish a more powerful option was available.
According to the EPA, FWD models achieve 17/24 mpg city/highway, while AWD models achieve 16/22. These ratings are only about average for the affordable midsize SUV class. If you’re looking for better fuel economy, your best bet is the Honda Accord Crosstour. Though its in the affordable wagons class, it matches the Enclave’s luxurious interior while providing a more impressive 18/27 fuel economy rating -- all for a price that’s about $6,000 less.
