As an option, you can upgrade the Avenir trim with an exclusive adaptive suspension (enhances both ride comfort and handling).

Which Enclave trim does Edmunds recommend?

For the best value in a Buick Enclave, we recommend the Essence trim. It offers access to an array of options, giving you more choice in how the SUV looks and what features it has. From paint colors and wheel designs to infotainment and safety features, you can build an Enclave Essence to meet most of your requirements.
