Power and Performance Built for Canadian Roads

The Enclave is powered by a 2.5 L Turbo 4-cylinder engine producing 328 hp and 326 lb-ft of torque - enough to move this three-row SUV confidently on the highway and handle merging with ease. The 8-speed automatic transmission keeps shifts smooth and responsive.

All trims come standard with all-wheel drive, providing better traction on wet roads, snowy mornings, and gravel driveways. For Montréal and Québec drivers, all-wheel drive is essential for year-round confidence.

The Preferred and Sport Touring feature a performance suspension tuned for balanced ride comfort and handling. The Avenir upgrades to Premium Ride suspension with Continuous Damping Control, which adjusts in real time to smooth out rough pavement and reduce body roll.

The 30-Inch Ultra-Wide Display: An Advantage

The Enclave's 30-inch diagonal ultra-wide premium display spans nearly the entire dashboard. Split into zones, the driver can view navigation and vehicle info while the passenger controls media or climate settings independently.

Google Built-In comes standard, delivering Google Maps, Google Assistant, and Google Play Store access without plugging in your phone. Voice commands work naturally, and the system updates over the air.

The ultra-wide format makes split-screen multitasking easy - run navigation on one side and music controls on the other, or monitor the Surround Vision camera while adjusting climate settings.

Safety Features That Work in the Background

The Enclave includes comprehensive active safety technology standard across all trims:

Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking monitors the road ahead and can apply brakes to prevent collisions with vehicles, pedestrians, or bicyclists. Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking watches for cross-traffic when turning.

Reverse Automatic Braking and Rear Cross Traffic Braking protect when backing out of parking spots. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning helps maintain lane position, while Blind Zone Steering Assist gently corrects if you drift into another vehicle's blind spot.

HD Surround Vision provides a bird's-eye view on the 30-inch display for easier parking. The Safety Alert Seat delivers haptic feedback through the driver's seat cushion to alert you to hazards without additional beeps.

The Avenir adds a Rear Camera Mirror with washer, replacing the traditional rearview mirror with a high-definition camera feed that eliminates blind spots.

Three Rows of Real Space

The Enclave seats seven passengers with usable third-row space.

Cargo space is generous: 648 litres behind the third row, expanding to 1,617 litres with the third row folded, and 2,761 litres maximum with both rear rows down.

The AutoSense power liftgate is standard - it detects your key fob and opens automatically when you stand behind the vehicle. The Avenir adds a power-folding third row and one-touch flat-folding and sliding second-row seats for easier access and cargo loading.

Preferred: The Well-Equipped Foundation

Starting at approximately $64,000, the Preferred includes heated front seats, the 30-inch ultra-wide display, Bose premium audio, AutoSense power liftgate, and Trailering Package hardware. It rides on 20-inch alloy wheels with performance suspension.

Sport Touring: Sportier Style, Same Capability

Starting at approximately $66,000, the Sport Touring adds 20-inch High Gloss Black wheels, a wrapped flat-bottom steering wheel, and High Gloss Black grille with matching trim. It maintains the same performance suspension as the Preferred.

Avenir: The Luxury Flagship

Starting at approximately $75,000, the Avenir offers the top of the lineup with Premium Ride suspension with Continuous Damping Control for a quieter, more refined ride.

The Avenir features 22-inch Pearl Nickel wheels, ventilated front seats, heated second-row outboard seats, massage seats, panoramic sunroof, Bose performance audio, Rear Camera Mirror with washer, power tilt and telescoping steering column, and memory settings for driver preferences.
