A major component in today’s society is going green and we are all for it. We are also happy to say that the new lineup from Buick is too – namely the 2019 Buick Enclave.
Earlier this year, Buick hosted an event in Sausalito, Cali. allowing drivers to experience what it takes to step into the luxury SUV market from previous standards of the brand. This included a beautiful drive carving out the landscape between the Bay area and the lush Cascade Falls. The reasoning behind this drive was to showcase that the Enclave is stepping into the luxury segment by incorporating new technologies including start and stop features to help with fuel consumption reduction.
Precision driving performances that incorporate advanced response times for yielding, debris detection and road obstructions, which brings light to the Enclave’s agile performance indicators.
The Enclave also features a 3.6 liter V6 engine, outputting 310 horsepower. Options for the vehicle include both front-wheel and all-wheel driving capabilities, with a new twin-clutch technology available along with a nine-speed transmission for the all-wheel drive selection.
Buick has also maintained high regard for safety by adding their lane change alert system. This feature provides alerts within the side mirrors to keep drivers from changing lanes to quickly. Additional safety features include rear camera and alerting systems to assist with backend collisions, as well as a forward collision alerting system designed to detect collision possibility with either vehicles in front of the SUV or to simply warn drivers that they are following too close for comfort.
Other features include:
- Surround vision – overhear view of vehicle to assist in parking.
- Lane keep assist and lane departure warning – to help keep drivers centered while driving.
- Onstar Safety and Security – available upon request.
Moving inside the vehicle, the 2019 Enclave has stepped up its connectivity features by including features such as:
- Infotainment systems.
- Apple CarPlay.
- Android Auto.
- Built-in 4G LTE WiFi Hotspot – available upon request.
- Updated Navigation system.
- Buick’s Connected Service options.
Inside the vehicle, passengers can get comfortable as the Enclave can carry seven people in the SUV’s spacious three rows. Buick also kept in mind the mental aspect of driving, as the brand created a warm wood-toned interior with hints of chrome throughout, complemented with leather and heated seats.
While loading in the caravan, Buick has also implemented easy third row access with the new Smart Slide feature. This allows the second row of the vehicle to quick collapse by pulling the designated handle, and a quick bounce back into position by pressing the corresponding button. The third row also has a similar option with the option to collapse the middle seat.
The vehicle also features QuietTuning technology for uninterrupted time with every passenger and the new Enclave. This feature boasts in triple door sealing, acoustic laminated glass and suspension tuning technology to absorb extraneous noise.
