2013 Buick Enclave


If you're looking for an SUV that is gorgeous, distinctive looking and has decent gas mileage, than the Buick Enclave may be for you! 


The enclave averages about 19 MPG. I used this Enclave and only this Enclave for all of my errands during the week I had it and I went through 3/4 of a tank. I did take a decent trip to a large mall, it's about an hour round trip, so that was quite a bit of miles. 

For the base price tag of $38,445 this car is fully equipped and comes with a lot of features. The vehicle I received had a tag of $52,160. Some features I have come to love are the large center console, the heated and cooled seats, the back up camera, steering wheel mounted controls and so much more!



This Enclave is very stylish and has many features that everyone in the family can love!!
It has a Power sunroof with 2nd row skylight!
Entertainment System

It also has best-in-class third-row legroom of 33.2", The third row of this SUV is very large!
It has the 2nd row bucket seats and 3 seats in the third row, which means it's a 7 seater!

The 2nd row has Smart Slide which makes it easier for third row access. 

It has more Maximum Cargo Room than Mercedes R-Class, Acura MDX, Lincoln MKT, Volvo XC90 and Audi Q7. 
The max cargo room for this vehicle is a whopping 115.2 cu. ft. 
 In case that wasn't enough, the very back also has storage underneath!

This Enclave is equipped with Bose speakers, so you can be sure to have the best sound system on your block. 
The mirrors have Side Blind Zone Alert. So if there's a car next to you in your blind spot your mirror lights up! It will tell you! 
When you are in reverse and a car is coming behind you it will beep at you and let you know not to continue backing up. 

This SUV does a lot in the line of safety. They want to make sure you are as safe as possible while on the road!
Also with the Back Up Camera when you turn your wheel it shows you exactly where you're going and it turns right along with you.

The Enclave is truly a beautiful SUV and I highly recommend it. It has a lot of nice safety features, has plenty of room, gets decent mileage and is just beautiful!



*Disclaimer, I received a Buick Enclave for a 1 week test drive. All opinions here are 100% my own and I was not compensated to write this post, other than receiving the vehicle.

  4. Beautiful! We are currently looking around for a larger vehicle so this review was helpful! It looks roomy enough for my entire family! I love how the seats fold down (and the DVD players are a plus!)

  5. I love, love LOVE back up cameras. I hope it doesn't make people lazy about checking, but it's a safety feature that should be standard on all vehicles, IMO. That's a sweet ride!! Not your mama's Buick, that's for sure!

  7. Love all that cargo space and the hidden storage compartment underneath!

  8. That level of cargo space is crucial for my family! This might be something for us to consider instead of another mini van for our next purchase.

  10. Love all the features, specially the three rows of seats!! That would, alone, come in very handy when we have family visiting from out-of-state.

  25. Talk about riding in style I would love this for long trips that can be sooooooooooooo boring!

  26. Wow, looks like a great SUV but too pricey for my pocketbook. Love all of the room but since my youngest just graduated from college I'll be looking for a sedan. Thanks for the review.

  27. Great style and features. I really need an upgrade soon.

  28. That vehicle looks soooo long. It has some great features,but is high on price even for base model. I have the Hyundai Tucson Limited and at $32K with 10yr warranty it has pretty much al, the features I need...well except AC vents in the back. This vehicle has so many features. Not sure if cooling seats are necessary...I love in south Florida and don't see a need, but heat is nice. Rear back up camera is fantastic...I love it and wouldn't purchase a vehicle with out it great review

  29. Buick is a higher quality vehicle that is part of GM. It is the reason the price is a bit high, but I always say you get what you pay for. I am trading my Traverse in for an Enclave and can't wait.
