2018 Buick Enclave Safety Features

There are many different features you'll want to look for in a new car, but one area that you don't want to take for granted is safety. Sure, most cars today are much safer than cars from 20 – 30 years ago, but that still doesn't mean that all cars are created equal when it comes to keeping you and your family safe. Models like the 2018 Buick Enclave, for example, excel at safety with features that are modern and high-tech. Some of this equipment is rather basic, like sufficient and perfectly placed airbags, or OnStar serviced like Automatic Crash Response and Roadside Assistance. Others, however, are far more advanced.

What Safety Technologies Does the Buick Enclave Have?

For example, one of our favorites is the Rear Camera Mirror. With the flick of a switch at the bottom of your rearview mirror, the mirror turns from just an ordinary mirror that helps you see out the back window to a camera view of what's behind you. Overall, it delivers a wider and better view of the traffic to your rear. Another unique feature is also designed to keep pedestrians safe. It's called Front Pedestrian Braking and is capable of detecting when pedestrians are in your path. If a collision is imminent and you have not applied the brakes, the vehicle will alert you or even apply the brakes itself if deemed necessary. Many other vehicles only have such systems design exclusively for vehicles, not pedestrians. Other features we have to also mention include Low Speed Forward Automatic Braking to avoid frontal collisions and Forward Collision Alert to help keep you at a safe distance from vehicles ahead and alert you to imminent danger. As you can see, the 2018 Buick Enclave stands apart from the rest with its advanced safety features, so come take a test drive in one today.
