Used 2021 Buick Enclave for Sale near Ontario

How much does the 2021 Buick Enclave cost?

Prices have softened 12.55% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 61 listings available, which suggests a modest amount of inventory for you to compare.

Is the 2021 Buick Enclave a good car?

Yes — the 2021 Buick Enclave earns a 5/5 user rating and a 6.33/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Form and function.

The Enclave is Buick’s biggest crossover SUV, and it is especially appealing in its top trim level, where it comes across as stylish, upscale, roomy, quiet, powerful, and athletic. That makes it a strong fit if you want a large three-row SUV with a more refined feel than the usual mainstream alternative. At the same time, it falls short on technology and value for the money, so you should expect to pay for its size and polish.

Only 29.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so the market is somewhat selective rather than broadly bargain-heavy.

Is the 2021 Buick Enclave reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The Enclave’s overall character points to solid everyday dependability: it is roomy, quiet, and built around a straightforward V6-and-automatic powertrain. The expert test drive notes that the nine-speed automatic never gets a shift wrong, and the ride quality is consistently praised for comfort and composure. Buick also packages the SUV in a way that keeps the mechanical formula simple.

On the ownership side, the model’s value story is less reassuring because Buick asks you to pay extra for some desirable equipment, and that can make used ownership feel less rewarding if you want a fully equipped example. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is paying too much for a trim that still leaves key features out.

What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Buick Enclave?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base Essence trim gives you the Enclave’s core upscale look, but Premium and Avenir add more presence and more equipment. The Avenir stands out with a unique grille pattern, extra brightwork, unique 20-inch polished wheels, and a more luxurious interior treatment.
• Powertrain: Every version uses a 3.6-litre V6 with a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard on Essence in Canada, while all-wheel drive is standard on higher-priced models. The V6 makes 310 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque, and the SUV can tow up to 2,268 kilograms when properly equipped.
• Safety package: Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are standard. The Driver Confidence Plus Package adds forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, low-speed automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with lane-keep assist, automatic high-beam headlights, front and rear park assist sensors, and a Safety Alert Seat. Premium and Avenir get this package standard, while adaptive cruise control with highway-speed automatic emergency braking requires the Avenir and the optional Avenir Technology Package.
• Infotainment: Every Enclave includes Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, SiriusXM 360L, connected services with a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot, and USB charging ports in all three rows. The biggest touchscreen is 8 inches, and higher trims can add navigation, wireless charging, a premium sound system, and a surround-view camera system.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada rates the Enclave at 11.2 L/100 km in combined driving, or 11.8 L/100 km with AWD. In testing, it averaged 11.1 L/100 km with FWD.

Which 2021 Buick Enclave trim should I buy?

The 2021 Buick Enclave is offered in 3 trim levels: Essence, Premium, and Avenir.

Here's the short version:

• Essence: This is the entry point, and it gives you the Enclave’s core space, V6 power, and standard connectivity without moving too far up the price ladder. It makes sense if you want the Enclave’s size and comfort first, and you can live without the extra luxury and safety equipment on the higher trims.
• Premium: This is the best-value trim if you want the strongest balance of equipment and price. It adds the Driver Confidence Plus Package as standard, which brings forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, low-speed automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with lane-keep assist, automatic high-beam headlights, front and rear park assist sensors, and a Safety Alert Seat.
• Avenir: This is the most upscale choice, with the richest styling, standard AWD in Canada, and the most premium cabin presentation. It is the trim to choose if you want the Enclave at its most luxurious, but you should be prepared to pay extra for some advanced driver-assistance features through the optional Avenir Technology Package.

The safety-package gap is important: Premium and Avenir get the Driver Confidence Plus Package standard, while adaptive cruise control with highway-speed automatic emergency braking is reserved for Avenir with the optional Avenir Technology Package.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Buick Enclave?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have some room to shop carefully rather than rush.

• Deal availability: 29.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 61 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.55% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $30,647 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2021 Buick Enclave's resale value?

The current average of $32,922 CAD sits slightly below last year's $37,645 CAD.

That price movement suggests the Enclave has become more approachable for used buyers, which can help support demand in the near term. For a future seller, it also means you may need to price competitively if you want to stand out against similarly equipped examples. The upside is that a well-kept Enclave still has appeal because it offers a roomy, upscale three-row package that many shoppers want.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2021 Buick Enclave safe?

The 2021 Buick Enclave earns five-star ratings from NHTSA overall, though it gets four-star frontal-impact protection because of a four-star front passenger rating. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gives it high marks overall, but a Marginal headlight performance rating keeps it from earning a Top Safety Pick accolade.

It earns a 4/10 safety score from our experts.

Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are standard, and the Driver Confidence Plus Package adds forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, low-speed automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with lane-keep assist, automatic high-beam headlights, front and rear park assist sensors, and a Safety Alert Seat. Premium and Avenir include that package as standard, while adaptive cruise control with highway-speed automatic emergency braking is limited to Avenir with the optional Avenir Technology Package.

Should I buy a 2021 Buick Enclave or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2021 if:

• 29.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.55% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Buick’s biggest crossover SUV is especially appealing in its top trim, where it is stylish, upscale, roomy, quiet, powerful, and athletic.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $37,433 CAD, the 2022 costs more than the current year's $32,922 CAD average.
• It adds a freshened exterior, updated cabin details, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The bottom line: You should lean toward the 2021 if you want the lower price and can live without the 2022 refresh. If you are price-sensitive, the 2021 is the smarter buy; if you want the newer styling and tech updates, the 2022 is worth the extra money.
