Efficient, smooth driving experience Enclave is driven by a 3.6L V-6 engine featuring fuel-saving direct injection technology and continuously variable valve timing, and matched with a six-speed automatic transmission. Direct injection helps the engine produce power comparable to a V-8 SAE-certified 288 horsepower (215 Nm) and 270 lb-ft of torque (366 Nm) with good efficiency. EPA fuel economy estimates of 17 mpg city/24 mpg highway for front-wheel-drive models are very competitive with other three-row crossovers and utilities.

5 The strong V-6 engine also enables Enclave to tow up to 4,500 pounds (2,045 kg) when properly equipped, and it can be flat-towed in both FWD and AWD configurations. The available intelligent all-wheel-drive system provides increased traction on slippery roads by actively managing the torque distribution between the front and rear axles, based on factors such as wheel speed, throttle and surface conditions. There is no driver intervention; the system automatically decides how much torque to apply and delivers it to the wheels that have the best traction. Enclave has a long inch (3,021 mm) wheelbase, with a wide 67.3-inch (1,709 mm) front track and 67.1-inch (1,704 mm) rear track a combination that enables smooth, stable ride and handling characteristics. Additional chassis and suspension features include: MacPherson strut front suspension, with a direct-acting stabilizer bar and aluminum knuckles. Isolated mounting points help reduce noise and vibration Compact linked H design rear suspension, with an isolated mounting system to reduce noise and vibration transmitted to the passenger compartment Power-assisted, variable-effort rack-and-pinion steering Four-wheel disc brakes with anti-lock are standard on all models, with additional brake features including dynamic rear proportioning, hydraulic brake boost and panic brake assist Eighteen-inch wheels are standard and 19- and 20-inch wheels are available. Safety features The Enclave includes the segment s first Front Center Air Bag. This feature deploys from the inboard side of the driver s seat and inflates between the driver and front passenger, providing added protection for both front occupants in side-impact crashes. Standard safety features also include StabiliTrak, traction control, panic brake assist, rearview camera system and a total of seven air bags including headcurtain side air bags covering outboard occupants in all three passenger rows. Enclave offers a number of camera- and radar-based safety features. They monitor areas around the vehicle and provide alerts to assist the driver in avoiding collisions. Side blind zone alert and rear cross traffic alert are radar-based, while forward collision alert and lane departure warning are camera-based. Forward collision alert detects a possible crash threat and alerts the driver, giving him or her extra time to stop and/or change course. With side blind zone Alert, the driver is alerted to vehicles in the blind sport during a lane-change or merging maneuver. Enclave s standard safety features also include StabiliTrak, traction control, panic brake assist and a total of seven air bags including head-curtain side air bags covering outboard occupants in all three passenger rows.
