The 2019 Buick Enclave carries over from the redesigned 2018 model with only minor trim and options updates, and that's a good thing. We like the Enclave's long list of standard features and its high level of in-car technology.
Pros Generous room for passengers in all three rows Quiet and smooth ride quality Plenty of standard features

Pros Balanced and well-defined silhouette Generous third-row space Minimalist cockpit Confident ride and handling Decent performance, but…
Cons ...fuel economy lags Trims and options get pricey fast Base model lacks most advanced safety tech All-wheel drive is part-time only
