The 2025 Buick Enclave debuts with a brand-new 2.5L turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivering 328 horsepower and 326 lb-ft of torque. A crisp nine-speed automatic transmission delivers smooth city driving and confident highway passing.

Available twin-clutch all-wheel drive adapts thrust to each axle with maximum grip for all-weather confidence. Driver-selectable modes let you adjust throttle, shift logic, and steering weight for snow, sport, or trailer duty-functionality the Kia Telluride doesn't offer.

With revised suspension tuning, firmed bushings, and an upgraded stability system, the Enclave feels composed on winding roads yet plush on rough pavement. Optional front and rear performance tires further enhance handling.
