The highly anticipated 2025 Buick Enclave has finally been unveiled, setting a new benchmark for the three-row midsize segment. Slated for customer orders starting this summer, the pricing details for the newly designed Enclave are yet to be disclosed and are expected to be released before its official market launch.
With an increase in length, width, and height compared to its predecessor, the 2025 Enclave promises to offer more space for both passengers and their cargo. Although specific dimensions haven’t been shared, the larger size suggests a boost in comfort and practicality.
At first glance, the exterior of the new Enclave reveals an evolved, edgier design language than the outgoing model, initially seen on Buick’s 2022 Wildcat EV concept. Since then, this design approach has made its way to the 2024 Envision and Envista compact crossovers, with the Enclave being the latest to feature these enhancements.
The luxurious 2025 Buick Enclave Avenir model.
The Enclave’s interior doesn’t fall short of expectations, rivaling luxury models, particularly in its high-end Avenir trim. The interior features a prominent 30-inch digital display that combines the functions of both the gauge cluster and infotainment system. Additionally, a floating center console houses the various vehicle controls alongside conveniences like cupholders and a wireless phone charging station.
Available trims for the 2025 Enclave include Preferred, Sport Touring, and the premium Avenir. The standard equipment encompasses a 12-speaker audio system, surround-view camera, power-adjustable heated front seats, powered tailgate, ambient lighting, and 20-inch alloy wheels. Built-in wireless compatibility for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is also standard. On the optional front, the Enclave offers a head-up display and the Super Cruise hands-free driving system, currently undergoing extensive expansion to its operable roadway network.
Powering the new Enclave is a turbocharged 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine, delivering 328 horsepower which is a notable increase from the previous V6 model. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and available all-wheel drive, the towing capability reaches an impressive 5,000 pounds.
While Buick hasn’t officially announced hybrid or electric versions of the 2025 Enclave, the brand is not far from adopting electric vehicles, with two Ultium-based EV SUVs on the horizon for the U.S. by the end of 2024. As part of its long-term strategy, Buick anticipates that its entire lineup will be electric by 2030.
