2026 Buick Enclave

The 2026 Buick Enclave is a three-row SUV that occupies the middle ground between three-row SUVs from mainstream brands and those bearing luxury badges. In most cases, however, it's way bigger than both groups thanks to adult-friendly rear seating in both rows and extra-large cargo capacity. It's also very well equipped from the get-go, with a base level of feature content that aligns more closely with the upper trim levels of non-luxury rivals, though this results in a higher base price.

SUVs don't get much more spacious than the Buick Enclave. The Enclave, along with its corporate sibling, the Chevy Traverse, offers more passenger and cargo space than anything short of a Chevy Tahoe, Ford Expedition or a minivan. The Enclave is spacious enough for adults in all three rows, which isn't something you can say about most midsize three-row SUVs. There's plenty of room for cargo, too, with 22.9 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats.

The Enclave competes against other midsize three-row SUVs, but like most Buicks, it's one of the more expensive offerings in its class. The Traverse is the Enclave's twin, though the Chevy's interior is not quite as premium. That also goes for rivals like the Honda Pilot or Toyota Grand Highlander. If a premium cabin is what you're after, we're big fans of the Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride, which look and feel properly upmarket in their higher trims.

The 2026 Buick Enclave is a three-row SUV that seats seven, and it's offered in three trim levels: Preferred, Sport Touring and Avenir. A 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (328 horsepower, 326 lb-ft of torque) pairs with an eight-speed transmission and front-wheel drive. All-wheel drive is optional for all trims.
