Buick Adds a Few Fresh Touches

Three rows, three trims, and one very wide screen. Buick’s biggest SUV is back for 2027 with a few fresh tricks. Picking the right version comes down to how you spend your weekends and your commute, so we sorted out what each trim adds.

  • Every 2027 Enclave uses a 328-horsepower 2.5L turbo engine and can tow up to 5,000 pounds with the standard Trailering Package.
  • Preferred and Sport Touring share the same standard equipment list, and Sport Touring adds a sportier look inside and out.
  • Avenir picks up standard Super Cruise for 2027 and keeps its massaging front seats and 16-speaker Bose sound system.

What Every 2027 Enclave Gets

Good news first. Power is the same no matter which badge you choose. Every Enclave runs a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 328 horsepower and an 8-speed automatic. Any trim can have FWD or AWD. Buick’s EPA estimates land at 20 city, 25 highway, and 22 combined mpg with FWD. With AWD, you’ll see 20 city, 24 highway, and 21 combined.

Towing gear comes built in. A Trailering Package is standard across the lineup, and it lets the Enclave pull up to 5,000 pounds. That’s enough for a small boat headed down I-69 to Lake Monroe or a pop-up camper bound for Brown County State Park.

Inside, each Enclave seats seven and gets a 30-inch diagonal screen with Google built-in featuring Google Gemini. For 2027, Buick adds a Surround Vision Recorder plus Cabin Glance and Security Recording. Those let you peek at the kids in the back rows and save camera footage if the alarm goes off. Heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, adaptive cruise control, and 126 ambient lighting colors come on every trim.

Preferred Keeps the Price in Check

Buick lists the Preferred at a starting MSRP of $46,600. It rolls on new 20-inch alloy wheels with a Medium Android finish and wears leatherette seats in Ebony or Sandstone. Standard gear includes a 12-speaker Bose audio system, an 8-way power driver’s seat, 4-way power lumbar up front, and a programmable AutoSense power liftgate.

Two packages let you build it up. The Power Package adds a head-up display, memory settings, a 110-volt outlet, and one-touch flat-folding and sliding second-row seats. A power-folding third row and a rear camera mirror come with it, too. The Super Cruise Package adds hands-free driving on compatible roads, plus Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist and Driver Attention Assist.

Sport Touring Brings the Attitude

At $50,100, the Sport Touring keeps the Preferred’s standard gear and adds some swagger. Outside, you’ll spot a high-gloss black mesh grille with ST badging and 20-inch High-Gloss Black wheels with a machined finish. Inside, perforated leatherette seats carry embroidered ST logos on the front head restraints. It’s also the only Enclave with a heated, wrapped flat-bottom steering wheel.

Both packages are available here as well. Picture pulling up for dinner on Mass Ave with car seats in the second row. Sharp looks plus family room is what this trim is all about.

Avenir Piles On the Luxury

The Avenir starts at $63,300, and it packs a lot into that price. For 2027, Super Cruise comes standard with a 3-year OnStar One plan. Buick adds the head-up display, a rear camera mirror, a panoramic sunroof, and a 16-speaker Bose Performance audio system.

Up front, you get heated, ventilated, and massaging seats in quilted, perforated leather-appointed trim. Second-row outboard riders get heated seats of their own. The one-touch sliding second row and power third row are standard, too. New 22-inch wheels with an Avenir Pearl Nickel finish, an exclusive mesh grille, and new Twilight Ash interior accents finish the look. Underneath sits a ride suspension with Continuous Damping Control, which is a nice thing to have once pothole season hits I-465.

Matching a Trim to Life Around Indianapolis

This 2027 Buick Enclave Trim Level Breakdown comes down to a few easy calls. If you log daily miles on I-65 or I-465 and want strong value, start with the Preferred and add the Power Package if the budget allows. Families who want a bolder look for trips to the Indianapolis Zoo or Holiday World will like the Sport Touring. Spend whole days on the interstate? Look hard at the Avenir. Super Cruise and the massaging seats make long trips easier.

A last tip for Hoosier drivers. One January morning on the south side will show you why AWD is worth a look on any trim. By Buick’s numbers, it costs one highway mpg, and it adds traction when snow and ice show up.
