The all-new 2008 Enclave is a bold departure for Buick, and it scores points on several levels. While the exterior wears the Buick family face, it does so far better than the midsize Rendezvous and Rainier did, and lends visual cohesion to the Buick line.

All models are powered by a 275-horsepower 3.6L dual-overhead-cam V6 with variable valve..... |
