Discover the 2026 Buick Enclave in Nanaimo – Premium Comfort and Innovation
If you’re looking for a roomy, elegant, and tech-smart SUV around Nanaimo, BC, the 2026 Buick Enclave is one you’ll want to see at Laird Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC. With updates over last year’s model, this SUV brings more comfort, performance, and safety for your drives, from the seaside roads to the winding inland routes.
What’s New and Why It Matters
The 2026 Enclave builds on what made the previous model strong, adding sharper design touches, more driver-assist features, and better in-cab technology. The ultra-wide 30-inch diagonal display is still a standout. You’ll notice a cleaner grille design up front and refinements in the trims for more luxury and better fit and finish. For people in Nanaimo, where weather changes and terrain vary, the available all-wheel drive and improved handling make a real difference on slick roads or steep inclines.
Power, Ride, and Performance
Under the hood the Enclave uses a 2.5-L turbocharged engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. It delivers a solid mix of power and efficiency. Fuel consumption is estimated at about 12.3 L/100 km in city and 9.9 L/100 km on highway when equipped with AWD. You’ll get smooth ride comfort, especially with the available Continuous Damping Control suspension on higher trims. Towing is possible with the trailer package, great for hauling your gear.
Luxury Inside and Outside

Stepping inside, you’ll find that Buick has focused on comfort. The Enclave seats up to seven people, with heated front seats standard and optional massaging seats in upper trims. Ambient lighting (static and dynamic) sets a mood. On the exterior, different trimmings offer wheel designs up to 22-inch, LED lighting, and a panoramic moonroof in available packages. The trims also bring different finishes and materials such as leather, quilted accents, and exclusive grille styling in Avenir.
Tech That Keeps You Connected and Safe

The 2026 Enclave brings serious tech upgrades. Standard features include the 30-inch wide centre display, Google built-in compatibility (subscription required), and a full driver-assist suite. Available features include Super Cruise hands-free driving capability on compatible highways, HD Surround Vision, Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Traffic Sign Recognition, Reverse Automatic Braking, and more. Perfect for commuting in the rain or taking family trips across Vancouver Island.
Safety Features That Matter Around Vancouver Island
The Enclave comes standard with multiple features like HD Surround Vision, Forward Collision Alert, Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking, Reverse Automatic Braking, Traffic Sign Recognition, plus an adaptive cruise control system. These help reduce stress and risk when driving in all kinds of conditions.
Should You Trade Up from Last Year’s Model?
If you drove a 2025 Enclave, you’ll notice the 2026 version brings refinements rather than a revolution. The newer grille design, more advanced driver assist options, more comfort upgrades in trims (especially Avenir), and enhanced display features give you more premium without losing what you liked before.
