2012 Buick Enclave.
2012 Buick Enclave Review, Price, Interior, Exterior, Engine. - The 2012 Buick Enclave ranks 1 out of 23 Affordable Midsize SUVs. This ranking is based on our analysis of 60 published reviews and test drives of the Buick Enclave, and our analysis of reliability and safety data. The 2012 Buick Enclave is a comfortable, luxurious and capable family hauler. Just don’t expect particularly nimble handling or brisk acceleration.

Reviewers say the 2012 Buick Enclave packs a surprising number of standard features and offers a quiet, refined interior that’s rare for an affordable midsize SUV. They even compare its upscale interior and composed ride with the Lexus RX 350. That’s high praise for a vehicle that isn’t considered a luxury SUV. Though reviewers are impressed with the Enclave’s interior accommodations, they aren’t excited about what’s under the hood. They say this SUV’s engine is up to the task of hauling up to eight people and their stuff, and has smooth handling and a comfortable ride. But shoppers looking for some fun driving dynamics in their family vehicle should look elsewhere because the Enclave is tuned more for relaxation than excitement.

Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options :
The 2012 Buick Enclave is a large crossover SUV that's offered in four different trim levels. All have a standard seven passenger seating configuration via second row captain's chairs and a third row bench seat. An optional second row bench seat, available at no extra charge, increases capacity to eight.

Even the base model is nicely equipped with 19 inch alloy wheels, bi xenon headlights, foglamps, a power liftgate, heated outside mirrors, tri zone automatic climate control and cloth upholstery. Other standard features include partial power front seats, a tilt and telescoping leather/wood steering wheel, keyless entry, cruise control, an auto dimming rearview mirror, Bluetooth, OnStar and a six speaker CD/MP3 audio system with an auxiliary audio jack and satellite radio.

2012 Buick Enclave Price and Release Date :
2012 Buick Enclave will be published soon, but there is currently no known date for them, forget rumors, there is no exact date for the start, although the 2012 Buick Enclave must be ready to launch in late 2011 or early 2012. 2012 Buick Enclave price is start from $ 36,600.

Standard equipment includes satellite radio, Bluetooth, power features and cruise control. A navigation system, rearview camera, front parking sensors and remote start are offered as options, as are 19 and 20 inch wheels, a Bose audio system and a rear seat DVD entertainment system. Buick's done away with trim levels this year, so instead of opting for an Enclave CXL or CX, you'll simply order from a choice of equipment packages, which can push the price of the Enclave to the $50,000 mark.

Interior Design and Special Features :
While the first things you're likely to notice about the Enclave's interior are its stylish design and quality materials, these superficial elements are just the beginning. The ability to comfortably transport up to eight passengers with the available second row bench seat is something not all crossovers can claim. Even the third row seats are suitable for adult passengers. If carrying a full load of grown ups is something you expect to be doing a lot of, however, we should point out that there's a bit less room back here than in the Ford Flex's third row.

2012 Buick Enclave Engine :
The Enclave isn't as strapping as the 365-hp turbocharged versions of the Flex and MKT, but its 288-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 has its own charms. The usable powerband reaches higher into the rev range than in some crossovers, giving it a perky feel, still torquey enough at city speeds. It works well, with the six-speed automatic shifting smoothly, although the one hitch is that it's a little sluggish to downshift compared to the transmissions in most other crossovers. In part, that's the product of wide transmission ratios that leaves the engine turning very slowly in the upper couple of gears, requiring a downshift for even mild grades.
