Default 2020 Buick Enclave adds Sport Touring model

Very subtle, but handsome.





With its redesign for 2018, the Buick Enclave added the fancy Avenir trim level. Now the 2020 Enclave moves a bit in the other direction with a new Sport Touring model. The Sport Touring package is based on the Essence trim level, and consists of a body-color grille surround in place of chrome, and special 20-inch wheels that combine a bright finish with darker insets. The package doesn't touch the 310-horsepower V6 or the Enclave's suspension, so this development is hardly one to threaten the Ford Explorer ST or the Dodge Durango SRT8. Instead, it is perhaps a baby step toward an Enclave Gran Sport, although we might rather see the Regal TourX wagon move in that direction.

Other Enclave news falls into the more traditional Buick wheelhouse. There's a new message function and power lumbar adjustment for the Premium and Avenir models. GM's HD rear vision camera — in which the rear-view mirror can switch to show a wide-angle camera feed — is newly available, as is an HD surround-view feature. In other tech developments, the standard 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system gains new capabilities, now supporting connected navigation and Sirius XM's higher-level 360L service, both of which require a subscription.
Sport Touring VS Regular Avenir

Looks good. But if they still didn't add rain sensing wipers, not interested.

But I do think it looks a thousand times better than Cadillac xt6.

Don't find it attractive at all. Rear fenders extend too high up on the body, giving it a jacked up kangaroo look. Also, the gloss black bumper is tacky and overdone.

A Buick with less chrome is like a bull missing one of his horns.
