CarGurus Analysis: 2021 Buick Enclave
overall

Summary
With 71 currently listed for sale near Macon, GA and an average price of $15,757, 35.2% of 2021 Buick Enclaves for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2021 Buick Enclave 5 / 5 stars and CarGurus experts gave it a 6.33 / 10.

Why it stands out
The 2021 Buick Enclave stands out as Buick’s biggest crossover SUV, and it is especially appealing in its top trim level. It is described as stylish and upscale, roomy and quiet, and powerful and athletic, which gives it a broad mix of comfort and presence that should suit buyers looking for a large, refined family SUV. More than any other vehicle in Buick’s four-SUV lineup, it is presented as the model that best represents Buick’s past.
At the same time, the 2021 Buick Enclave is not positioned as a bargain. It is easy to like, but it falls short when it comes to technology and value for the money. The listed strengths include comfort, spaciousness, and easy-to-use technology, while the drawbacks point to cheap-feeling interior materials, poor value for money, and outdated technology.

Drives like a Buick is a saying from over the years. It is still lives up to to its reputation. There is a feeling that comes with its smoot handling and comfort level. The conveniences that now grace Buicks are expected and always enjoyed.

This vehicle rides and drives like you are floating on air. Both my wife and I think this is the best driving vehicle weve ever owned. We have the Avenir version so it has every imaginable feature. The only thing that is slightly annoying is the gear shifter is a little funky and takes some getting accustomed to using. Styling is great inside and out. Well built and solid.

Yes — the 2021 Buick Enclave earns a 5/5 user rating and a 6.33/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Form and function.
It comes across as Buick’s biggest crossover SUV, with a stylish, upscale, roomy, quiet, powerful, and athletic character that fits buyers looking for a large refined family SUV. At the same time, the expert review points to weak value for the money and technology that trails the segment.
The main trade-offs are poor value for money and outdated technology. Even so, the Enclave’s comfort, spaciousness, and easy-to-use technology make it appealing if you want a large three-row SUV that prioritizes ease of living over bargain pricing.
The market still shows 33.9% of listings as good or great deals, which suggests there are worthwhile opportunities if you shop carefully.
Is the 2021 Buick Enclave reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The Enclave is described as roomy, quiet, and easy to live with, and its powertrain is straightforward: every version uses a 3.6-liter V6 with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The expert review also notes that the transmission shifts cleanly and that the SUV delivers strong acceleration with a calm, Buick-style driving character.
The review also highlights that the ride can be excellent when equipped appropriately, especially with the premium-tuned suspension and continuously variable damping. On the cost side, Buick’s short connected-service trial periods and limited feature availability can make ownership feel less generous than the cabin suggests.
For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that a well-equipped Enclave can still feel expensive to own if you want the better safety and comfort features.
What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Buick Enclave?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 75.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should still check the history report carefully, because the Enclave’s market includes a meaningful share of vehicles with prior damage. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on the condition of the cabin, the electronics, and the ride quality, since the model’s appeal depends heavily on comfort and feature content.
Pay close attention to which safety and convenience features are actually installed, because Buick spread them across the lineup unevenly. If you want a more complete equipment set, make sure the listing matches the trim and package claims before you commit.
Key things to evaluate:
- Trim level: Preferred, Essence, Premium, and Avenir are the trims to compare, and the biggest gaps show up in the lower trims. Base versions miss features that matter to many shoppers, while Avenir adds extra presence with a unique grille pattern, extra brightwork, and unique 20-inch wheels with a polished finish.
- Powertrain: Every version uses a 3.6-liter V6 with a nine-speed automatic transmission, and you can choose front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The engine makes 310 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque, and the SUV is described as strong and athletic with a 5,000-pound maximum tow rating when properly equipped.
- Safety package: The Driver Confidence Plus Package adds forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, low-speed automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist, automatic high-beam headlights, front and rear parking sensors, and a Safety Alert Seat. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert move up from Preferred to Essence, and adaptive cruise control with enhanced automatic emergency braking requires Avenir plus the optional Avenir Technology Package.
- Infotainment: The biggest screen is an 8-inch touchscreen, and every Enclave includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, SiriusXM 360L, a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot, USB charging ports in all three rows, and Teen Driver. Available upgrades include navigation, wireless smartphone charging, a premium sound system, a surround-view camera system, and a rear camera mirror.
- Fuel efficiency: The EPA rates the Enclave at 21 mpg in combined driving, and the review says it averaged 21.2 mpg on testing.
Which 2021 Buick Enclave trim should I buy?
The 2021 Buick Enclave is offered in 4 trim levels: Preferred, Essence, Premium, and Avenir.
Here's the short version:
- Preferred: This is the entry point, so it makes sense if you want the Enclave’s size and core comfort without stretching for extras. Just know that some safety features are reserved for higher trims.
- Essence: This is the better-value step up if you want more everyday safety equipment, because blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert move up to this trim.
- Premium: This is the trim to target if you want the strongest balance of equipment and value, since it unlocks the Driver Confidence Plus Package as standard equipment.
- Avenir: This is the best choice if you want the most upscale Enclave, with the most presence, the richest interior treatment, and access to the Avenir Technology Package.
The safety-package note to keep in mind is that the Driver Confidence Plus Package is standard only on Premium and Avenir, while adaptive cruise control with enhanced automatic emergency braking requires Avenir plus the optional Avenir Technology Package.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Buick Enclave?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you compare listings carefully.
- Deal availability: 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 1,194 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 12.03% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 75.5% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $23,240, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2021 Buick Enclave's resale value?
The current average of $23,248 sits slightly below last year's $26,427.
That decline suggests the market has moved in buyers’ favor, which can make the Enclave easier to purchase now than it was a year ago. For a future seller, that also means you should expect resale pressure if the broader market stays soft.
The good news is that the Enclave’s roomy, upscale character still gives it a clear audience among shoppers who want a large three-row SUV. Well-equipped examples with strong condition and desirable features should hold demand better than stripped-down versions.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Is the 2021 Buick Enclave safe?
The 2021 Buick Enclave earns five-star ratings from NHTSA overall, though frontal-impact protection rates four stars due to a four-star front passenger rating. The IIHS applies high marks across the board, but a Marginal headlight performance rating keeps it from earning a Top Safety Pick accolade.
It earns a 4/10 safety score from our experts.
Buick’s Driver Confidence Plus Package includes forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, low-speed automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist, automatic high-beam headlights, front and rear parking sensors, and a Safety Alert Seat. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are not standard on the base trim, and adaptive cruise control with enhanced automatic emergency braking is reserved for Avenir with the optional Avenir Technology Package.
The main safety caveat is that Buick limits important driver-assistance features to higher trims, which makes the Enclave less competitive than some family SUVs in this area.
Should I buy a 2021 Buick Enclave or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2021 if:
- 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 75.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 12.03% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
- It combines roomy comfort with a strong V6 and a quiet, upscale driving feel.
Consider the 2022 if:
- At $26,452, the 2022 costs more than the current year's $23,248 average.
- It adds a freshened look and standard driver-assistance technology.
The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2021 is the smarter buy because prices are lower and the market still offers decent deal availability. If you’re willing to pay more for a newer-feeling Enclave with updated styling and more standard safety tech, the 2022 is the better path.
