The 2010 Buick Enclave provides a new benchmark for American luxury crossovers, and it’s a viable rival to other luxury-brand vehicles.
The Buick has the most space in its class; the Lincoln MKT comes close, with a beautiful interior and three accommodating rows.
Otherwise, only the Audi Q7 and Volvo XC90 offer three rows of seats, but their last rows are more suited for children than adults.
If power is your thing, the Volvo XC90, Audi Q7, and Infiniti RX all offer optional V-8 engines in their crossovers, but these tend to be thirsty when it comes to fuel consumption.
The Lexus RX 350 has a conservative interior ambiance that’s closest to that of the Enclave, if that’s what you like.
