The 2018 Buick Enclave is one of many options for a new SUV. So why pick this make and model? Consider these four reasons why drivers choose this exceptional vehicle.
Utility
Inside and out, the new Enclave is loaded with utility. Two of the main benefits of an SUV are interior space and towing capacity, and you can certainly get these perks from this make and model. The vehicle sits seven people, so the interior is clearly spacious. Even with the seats up, you’ve got 23.6 cubic feet of cargo space to work with. You can fold the seats down, though, to get more room. This configuration gives you 97.6 cubic feet of cargo volume.
This is good news if you’ve got a big family or plan on hauling lots of gear around, but ample interior space is only one area where the Enclave’s utility excels. The vehicle can also tow up to 1,500 pounds — not enough for a large boat or something like a horse trailer, but plenty to get some kayaks or canoes to the lake or go glamping.
Off-Road Capabilities
You don’t have to stick to paved roads in the 2018 Enclave. Much like its towing capacity, the vehicle is limited in where you can go off-road. Deep sand or mud, for example, is best left to more rugged options. But this SUV can take you to secluded beach spots or down unpaved mountain roads where you can find some peace and quiet. Plus, with premium ride suspension, you can explore in extraordinary comfort when you drive this vehicle.
Luxury
So, with modest utility and off-roading abilities, why go with the Enclave over something that delivers more in those categories? Simple: Luxury. The Enclave is a fantastic choice if you plan on taking advantage of the Enclave’s utility, don’t want to go mudding or bouldering, and also plan to use your vehicle as a commuter.
The advantages of the Enclave’s luxury are clear once you get behind the wheel. The SUV has premium seating materials, wood tones, and chrome accents. Both the first and second rows have leather-appointed seats. This vehicle also uses unique QuietTuning technology to drown out exterior noises.
For ultimate luxury, upgrade to the Premium or Avenir trims. Both come with second row heated seats and ventilated driver and front passenger seats. Buick’s infotainment system with navigation is exclusive to the Avenir. This premium trim also gets a power dual moonroof.
Safety
The 2018 Enclave is available in four trims: 1SV, Essence, Premium, and Avenir. The 1SV comes with basic safety features, such as electronic traction control and LED daytime running lamps. Additional active safety features are available on the higher trims. For example, the Essence, Premium, and Avenir have lane change alert with side blind zone alert and rear cross traffic alert.
The Enclave is a fantastic vehicle that’s best experienced in person. Check out the models available at Bob Ruwart Motors, including the 2018 Enclaves, and take one for a test drive to see firsthand how well Buick has blended power, utility, and luxury.
