Detailed item info Model OverviewThe 2010 Buick Enclave shares its underlying architecture with the Chevrolet Traverse. Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia.

Although carrying passengers is the Enclave's forte. it can tow up to 4. 00 pounds when properly equipped. and the transmission has automatic grade braking to maintain control.
