Buick Enclave vs. Chrysler Aspen Review

Handling
With its tighter turning radius, the Chrysler is most certainly nimbler than the Buick Enclave, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; however, note that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Drivetrain
The Aspen's engine is significantly more sizeable than the Enclave's. Remember that more sizeable engines may use more gas than smaller ones. Torque is the force that lets you accelerate quickly, and in this respect, the Chrysler Aspen is considerably more powerful than the Buick Enclave. The Buick Enclave could learn a lesson or two from the Chrysler Aspen regarding pickup.

Utility
Neither the Chrysler Aspen nor the Buick Enclave has a marked advantage when it comes to seating capacity. The Chrysler Aspen outpulls the Buick Enclave by a sizeable margin.

Convenience
You most definitely won't have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the Buick Enclave than with the Chrysler Aspen, because both offer similar ranges.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Chrysler offers a bit more head room than the Buick Enclave, there honestly isn't much of a difference. The Chrysler Aspen is not particularly more spacious for your passengers than the Buick.

Dimensions
Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the Aspen than the Buick Enclave because of its bigger tank. The Buick Enclave and the Chrysler Aspen compete for the same parking spaces.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs about the same to get the Buick Enclave to the dealership as the Chrysler. The Chrysler Aspen consumes a lot of gas compared to the Buick Enclave. The Chrysler Aspen pales in comparison to the Buick Enclave as far as gas mileage. Regarding MSRP, the Buick Enclave costs roughly as much as the Aspen (though the Aspen is a bit cheaper).

Warranty
The basic warranty that comes with the Chrysler Aspen isn't quite as generous as the Buick Enclave's.
