What’s New for the 2025 Buick Enclave?

The Enclave, Buick’s spacious, luxurious, tech-forward three-row SUV, returns for the 2025 model year. The Enclave has been part of the Buick lineup since 2008, and the 2025 model marks the beginning of a new generation of this popular large SUV — the third generation. To honor the milestone moment in the model’s history, Buick has made some exciting upgrades to the stunning vehicle.

If you are shopping for a Buick Enclave for sale and aren’t sure whether the 2024 or 2025 model will fit your needs, we’d love to go over some of the changes Buick has made to the vehicle for the 2025 year. It is quite different from the 2024 model, offering features never before available on the Enclave and some even appearing for the first time in the Buick family. So, how has Buick refined the Enclave for 2025? Let’s take a look.

The Addition of the Super Cruise Technology

Let’s start with a bang and talk about Super Cruise. This is General Motors’ hands-free driving assistance technology that relies on GPS, cameras, sensors, and a 3D map of the earth’s surface to take over some of the primary functions of driving for you. It’s previously been available on other General Motors vehicles like the GMC Sierra and the Chevy Silverado. However, the 2025 Enclave marks the first Buick model available with the system.

Super Cruise works in collaboration with Adaptive Cruise Control to take over accelerating and braking while maintaining your desired distance between your vehicle and the one in front of you. It can also take over lane changes, making it one of the most advanced hands-free driver assist systems. When your vehicle is equipped with Super Cruise, it will also have the Driver Attention Camera, which monitors your behavior to ensure you are paying attention to the road and alerts you if you take your eyes off the road.

Four More Newly Standard Driver Assist Features

Drivers can look forward to a handful of other driver-assist features that will be standard for the first time in the 2025 Enclave. The first is Blind Zone Steering Assist, which can assertively take over the steering wheel to avoid a potential collision with a vehicle approaching your blind zone. The second is Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking, which can take over braking to avoid accidents with cross-traffic in an intersection.

The third new standard feature is Traffic Sign Recognition. This feature can detect road signs, including stop signs, yield signs, speed limit signs, and other common traffic signs, using cameras mounted on the front windshield. When the system detects these signs, it will display the associated icon in your Driver Information Center. So, when distracted driving means you don’t notice a sign, you can count on the system to give you a second notification.

The fourth and last new driver assist feature that will be standard on the 2025 Enclave is Lane Keep Assist and Departure Warning. Count on this system to alert you if you are drifting out of your lane. When necessary, it can gently take over steering to guide you back into it. With these standard assist features and the newly available Super Cruise, the Enclave provides an unprecedented seamless behind-the-wheel experience and an enhanced feeling of safety.

A Massive 30-Inch Touchscreen

Slide into the front or driver’s seat of the Enclave, and you will be instantly struck by the ultra-wide 30-inch diagonal screen. This is a tremendous upgrade from the 2024 model’s 8-inch screen. It gives you an uninterrupted, sprawling layout, depicting everything from your smartphone apps to your vehicle health to your journey stats and even the current artist and song you’re listening to. It’s just one more way that Buick shows its dedication to competitive and cutting-edge technology that creates the VIP in-vehicle experience.

A Smaller Yet More Powerful Engine

Let’s take a look beneath the hood. Buick made the interesting decision in 2025 to ditch the 3.6 L V6 engine with its 310 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque of the 2024 model. Instead, Buick has replaced it with a 2.5 L turbo engine, which kicks out 328 hp and 326 lb-ft of torque. The transmission is also changing for 2025, leaving the nine-speed transmission of last year in the past in favor of an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The biggest way this new engine will impact the driver experience is fuel economy., The boost in horsepower and torque will be nice; however, ultimately, both the 2025 and 2024 models can tow 5,000 lbs, which is probably what people are most concerned about when there is a change in performance. Fuel economy, however, should improve for the 2025 model. While the EPA has not yet released official numbers for the 2025 Enclave, we can expect the change to a turbo engine will improve fuel efficiency. The 2024 model saw figures of 18 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway, so expect a slight boost in these figures for 2025.

Bolder, Brighter, and Bigger Style Choices

Buick made bold and decisive choices regarding style for the 2025 Enclave. You will instantly notice that this model is taller than the previous generation. The result is a more intimidating aesthetic that will turn heads. Meanwhile, the grille has been completely redesigned. Buick is leaving the slightly rounded grill with its diamond design in the past in favor of a confident rectangular grille with horizontal, boxy slats. The fascia has also been redesigned for a more imposing presence. In fact, the 2025 Enclave features the body-mounted hood badging that will be found on all Buick vehicles moving forward.
