What should I look for when buying a used Buick Enclave?

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2021 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, a blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert and steering intervention, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assist, reverse automatic braking, and a surround-view camera system.
• Infotainment: a bold 30-inch curved digital display with Google Built-in, standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a wireless charging pad, a WiFi hotspot, and a 12-speaker Bose audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: EPA fuel-economy ratings for the 2026 Enclave max out at 22 mpg in combined driving (20/25 mpg city/highway) with FWD. Opting for AWD barely affects efficiency, as it's still rated at 21 mpg combined (20/24 mpg city/highway).

Which Buick Enclave trim should I buy?

The 2026 Buick Enclave offers these trims:

• Preferred: The entry-level trim starts the lineup with the Enclave's spacious cabin, Google Built-in, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a wireless charging pad, a WiFi hotspot, and a 12-speaker Bose audio system. It makes the most sense if you want the core Enclave experience at the lowest price.
• Sport Touring: This trim adds minor aesthetic changes, including a glossy black grille, but the overall equipment story stays close to the Preferred. It suits you if styling matters more than added hardware.
• Avenir: The top trim adds premium leather upholstery, upgraded ambient lighting, adaptive dampers, ventilated and massaging front seats, and other niceties. It is the best-value choice if you want the most upscale Enclave experience.

What Buick Enclave do most buyers choose?

The Buick Enclave years with the most listings are 2024, 2025, and 2023.
