The Buick Enclave was many firsts. It was the first of General Motors’ new large CUVs to launch, and it was the first Buick since the Grand National to attract buyers in their 30s and 40s. Not much has changed for 2010, but the Enclave’s styling is still fresh and still turns heads. Under the heavily sculpted hood lies GM’s 288-hp 3.6-litre V6 with a six-speed automatic transmission. Drive is to the front wheels, or optionally to all four. The interior is a combination of woods, leathers and chrome, and offers excellent space for seven.

Pros

Best-looking Buick

Cons

Could use more power to distinguish from other GM versions
