Buick Enclave achieves an EPA-estimated 24 mpg highway for front-wheel drive models and 22 mpg highway for all-wheel-drive models.
Cloth seats are standard on CX models; perforated and heated leather seats are standard on CXL models. A second-row 60/40-split bench (three passengers) seat is available.
Enclave’s second-row seats feature GM’s Smart Slide system, a popular feature that allows easy entry to the third row with the pull of one handle. The third row features a standard 60/40-split bench seat that can accommodate three adult passengers.
Buick Enclave is equipped with six standard air bags: two dual-stage frontal air bags, two seat-mounted side-impact air bags in the first row and two roof rail air bags that cover all three seating rows. Complementing the air bags is GM’s rollover sensing system, which activates the roof rail air bags if sensors determine an impending rollover.
The latest model year also saw a couple minor changes, including 19-inch nine-spoke chrome-clad aluminum wheel replacing the seven-spoke chromed aluminum wheel, standard on CXL2 and available on CXL1.
The Buick Enclave features one of the most luxurious and quiet interiors in its class. The Lincoln MKX offers an interior that some consider more luxurious than the Enclave’s. If you absolutely need a three-row SUV, consider the Enclave’s platform-mate, the Chevrolet Traverse.
The 2011 Buick Enclave is available in three trims: the base CX, premium CXL1 and top-of-the-line CXL2. Trims are available with front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive.
For 2011, the Buick Enclave sees only very minor changes. Among the Buick Enclave's many strengths are its powerful V6, comfortable and quiet ride, massive cargo capacity and excellent crash-test scores. The 2011 Buick Enclave is a large crossover SUV that comes in CX, CXL1 and CXL2 trim levels. All have a standard seven-passenger seating configuration via second-row captain's chairs and a third-row bench seat. Other standard features include partial power front seats, a tilt-and-telescoping leather/wood steering wheel, tri-zone automatic climate control, Bluetooth, OnStar and a six-speaker CD/MP3 audio system with an auxiliary audio jack and satellite radio.
The Enclave CXL1 adds leather upholstery, heated power front seats (eight-way driver, four-way passenger), driver-seat memory functions, rear parking sensors and a back-up camera with a small rearview-mirror display. Other Enclave options include a dual-pane SkyScape sunroof (not available on CX), a second-row storage console with a 12-volt power outlet (also not available on CX) and towing preparation.
The 2011 Buick Enclave offers a choice of front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
Stability control, front-seat side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags are standard on every 2011 Buick Enclave. In brake testing, the Enclave came to a stop from 60 mph in 139 feet. The Enclave's cabin has an upscale vibe thanks to its stylish dash and wood-grain inlays. On the bright side, the Enclave is one of the roomiest crossover SUVs on the market.
The 2011 Buick Enclave also shines on road trips thanks to its quiet ride and compliant suspension.
