The Buick Enclave brings three rows of space and a genuinely upscale cabin to families who want room without stepping into full-size SUV territory. It rides quietly, seats seven in comfort, and carries the kind of refinement that makes long drives feel shorter. We think it’s one of the easiest three-row SUVs to love.
For decades, families across the Indy area have counted on Ray Skillman to make car shopping feel personal, and this SUV fits right into that story. Whether you’re hauling kids to practice or loading up for a weekend away, it earns its keep every day. Here’s a closer look at what makes it stand out.

Choosing a three-row SUV is a big decision, and it helps to have a team that knows these vehicles well standing beside you. That’s exactly what you’ll find when you shop with us.
Under the hood, the Enclave runs a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that produces 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque, paired with a smooth eight-speed automatic. That’s plenty of pull for merging onto I-465 or passing on the highway without feeling like you’re asking too much of the engine.
Front-wheel drive comes standard, and all-wheel drive is available across every trim for drivers who want extra grip when winter rolls in. With the FWD setup earning an EPA-estimated 20 mpg city and 25 mpg highway, you spend less time at the pump on your daily loop. When it’s time to tow, a standard Trailering Package lets the Buick Enclave pull up to 5,000 pounds, enough for a mid-size boat or a small camper.
The centerpiece up front is a 30-inch diagonal ultrawide display, the largest in its class, that stretches across the dash and keeps maps, media, and vehicle settings easy to read without squinting. Google built-in lets you ask for directions or find a coffee stop using your voice, while wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connect your phone the moment you climb in.
Sound matters on a long drive, and the Enclave delivers with a Bose 12-speaker system on the Preferred and Sport Touring, or a Bose Performance 16-speaker setup on the Avenir. A wireless charging pad keeps your phone topped off, and available features like a head-up display put key info right in your line of sight.
Every Enclave is built to keep all three rows happy. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel take the sting out of cold mornings, tri-zone climate control keeps everyone content, and QuietTuning with active noise cancellation hushes the cabin so conversations stay easy. Move up to the Avenir and you get quilted leather, ventilated and massaging front seats, and heated second-row seats that turn the daily commute into something closer to a lounge.
Safety tech comes standard in a big way. Forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring all work quietly in the background to help you avoid trouble. An HD surround-vision camera makes tight parking spots less stressful, and available Super Cruise allows hands-free driving on compatible highways, a real gift on longer trips.

This three-row SUV can tow up to 5,000 pounds when equipped with its standard Trailering Package. That’s enough muscle for a mid-size boat, a small camper, or a loaded utility trailer. The package adds a hitch receiver, upgraded cooling, and a Tow/Haul mode to keep hauling steady.
Front-wheel drive is standard on every Enclave, and all-wheel drive is available on all three trims. AWD is a smart pick if you regularly drive in snow, rain, or on uneven roads. It adds around $2,000 to the price and gives you extra grip when conditions turn.
The Enclave seats up to seven people across three rows. The second and third rows have enough room for adults on longer trips, and the flat load floor behind the third row makes loading gear simple. When you need more space, the rear seats fold flat for a large cargo area.
The Avenir sits at the top of the Enclave lineup, and it shows. It adds 22-inch Pearl Nickel wheels, quilted leather seating, ventilated and massaging front seats, and heated second-row seats. A panoramic sunroof, head-up display, and premium suspension come standard, making it the most refined way to drive an Enclave.
