What's New in the 2023 Buick Enclave Avenir?
Compared to the 2022 Buick Enclave Avenir and other 2023 Buick Enclave trim levels, there are some changes and additions to the 2023 version. One addition includes various driver assistance options, such as rear pedestrian alert. Other examples of the additions and differences are the stylish and upscale interior that set it apart from other trim levels because of the unique patterns on the plush white seats and textured wood inserts on the door sides.

In addition to the wheels, there's an option to get a black lug nut and wheel lock kit with bright wheel locks.
