Buick SUVs Explained
Style and Capability
Buick has built a strong reputation with comfortable and luxurious vehicles over the years. They have an impressive lineup of capable SUVs with a great option for a variety of needs. Each SUV has its own unique advantages and Buick has given each great style as well. Check out our breakdown of the Buick SUV lineup.
Encore
The lineup consists of three SUVs, the Encore, the Enclave, and the Envision. The Encore is the smallest of the group providing nimble handling in an affordable package. Not only is the Encore the smallest, it is also the least expensive starting at $23,200. This starting price is quite impressive considering the luxury feel and high end driving experience. The Encore does have ample cargo space with 48.4 cu.ft. giving this compact SUV great versatility. Not only that, it also gets the best gas mileage of the group with 27 combined MPG.
Encore GX
This year Buick also debuted the Encore GX that has a very sporty style. The GX is built on the same platform as the Encore but adds sleek red accents and a more modern grill design. Buick is pushing the envelope and moving in a much different direction than in years past.
Envision
The Envision is the middle child of the group starting at $33,500. The Envision is also a 5 seater but is a bit roomier with 57.3 cu.ft. of cargo space. This also gives each row more legroom for a slightly more comfortable cabin. Both the Encore and Envision have similar personalities with very similar exterior styling. The Envision is a great all-terrain option as well with AWD available and impressive handling in tough conditions. Both the Envision and Encore are fit with the same 4 cylinder engine. This capable SUV gets 25 combined MPG which is pretty good for a mid size SUV. All around the Envision is a great option with capability and luxury style.
Enclave
The Enclave is the largest of the group with 7 seats and starting at $40,000. If you need an option with more seating and more space, look no further. With 97.6 cu.ft. of max-cargo space, this SUV has tons of space for your passengers and versatile folding seats that give you great usable storage. The Enclave is fit with a 3.6L V6 that outputs 310 horsepower and tops the other two SUVs with impressive power. This engine trades efficiency for power with 22 combined MPG which is a step down from the other two SUVs. The available AWD gives added driving capability to tackle tough conditions that comes in handy during Iowa's unpredictable winters.
2021 Enclave
Buick has also redesigned the Enclave in 2021 with sleek modern styling that is truly eye catching. This new modern look is very sporty and adds strong personality to the Buick lineup. The crisp body lines and sleek lighting stand out on the road and is a big step forward for Buick. Keep an eye out for Buick to release more images and information on the newly redesigned 2021 Envision.

I just bought my second car from McGrath and cannot recommend them enough!! Their staff is always so friendly and helpful. They listen to your needs and have plenty of options to get you exactly what you want. Both times I left in a vehicle that not only met all of my needs, but EXCEEDED my expectations. I have less than stellar credit and it has never been a problem to get me into the car of my dreams. Thanks again so much Jamie Schwab & Jimmy Ottilie for the outstanding customer service and knowing EXACTLY what I wanted.

Ryan was amazing! I wanted to purchase a vehicle for my husband. He sat down with me and listened to what I wanted and needed for the purchase. He was very knowledgeable about the car options and was honest with me when while looking for a used vehicle. He searched lots of options and gave me the time and opportunity to make the choice of which was the best fit for my husband. He was very patient with me and made my car buying experience pressure-free. I really appreciated the time he took with me and how he explained each step of the process! He will now be our "car" person! Thanks for all your hard work, Ryan!
