What is the real fuel consumption of the Enclave Plus?
2 Answers
The real fuel consumption is 8.3L/100km—10.8L/100km. Below is a relevant introduction to the Enclave: Design: The Buick Enclave's exterior design inherits the essence of the ENVISION Vision concept car, featuring a dynamic, elegant, and grand overall styling. Exterior: The front of the car adopts the family-style vertical chrome grille, complemented by winged intelligent xenon headlights, boomerang-shaped LED daytime running lights, and streamlined exterior rearview mirrors, creating a sharp and dynamic visual effect. The body features a full-frame integrated chrome window design, along with an aluminum roof rack that follows the roof line, paired with leading-class 19-inch oversized aluminum alloy wheels, giving the exterior a strong visual impact.
My Enclave Plus has been driven for a year and a half. During city commuting in traffic jams, the fuel consumption once peaked at 13 liters, and it gets even worse with the AC on in summer. However, it performs well on highways, with a measured consumption of 7.8 liters at a constant speed of 100 km/h. For daily commutes with mixed road conditions, it generally fluctuates around 10.5 liters. The fuel consumption was particularly high right after I got the car but stabilized after the first maintenance. The most crucial factor is driving habits—I’ve learned to avoid sudden braking and hard acceleration, which saves nearly 1 liter of fuel. I visit the gas station four times a month, and records show an average of 10.2 liters, significantly higher than the official data. Keeping tire pressure at the standard value is essential—last time, when it was 0.3 bar low, fuel consumption increased by 5%.
