2008 Utility Vehicle of the Year: Our Utility of the Year Award goes to the 2008 Buick Enclave because it excels on so many levels. From the sharp styling inside to the smooth, quiet ride and top-notch build, the Enclave is very well executed. The 3.6-liter V-6 engine delivers plenty of power, and with its comfortable interior, good cargo space and a bevy of standard features and options, GM has blessed the Enclave with one key intangible element: desirability. This vehicle proves that the General has the wherewithal to design and build a superior vehicle.
