Meet the Most Powerful Models from Buick and GMC
For drivers who have high demands, Buick and GMC are the only options. If you’re going to the track, want the best fuel economy, or need a tow vehicle for your next weekend adventure, Buick and GMC have you covered. We’re shining a spotlight on some of the best Buick and GMC models for drivers who need more than just a vehicle that gets them from point A to point B.
Most Horsepower
Buick
The Buick Enclave comes standard with a 3.6-liter V6 SIDI VVT engine capable of propelling this three-row luxury SUV over mountains and down the interstate with ease, as well as producing up to 310 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque. Not only can you seat up to seven passengers comfortably on the inside, but you can also tow up to 5,000 lbs. That’s a boat or a couple of jet skis on a trailer, (AKA "an incredible way to spend the weekend").
Most Towing Capacity
GMC
But what if you don't care about moving things over a mountain? What if you want to move the mountain itself? Then once again, the Sierra HD is here to the rescue. That powerful Duramax engine combines with high-strength in the fully-boxed frame rails and major frame cross-members, as well as cutting-edge towing technology, to offer a maximum towing capacity of an astonishing 23,100 pounds when properly equipped. To be clear, that's about as much as the total vehicle weight of four Buick Enclave SUVs.
Best Fuel Economy
Buick
For drivers who measure performance in miles per gallon, the Buick Encore GX offers optimum fuel economy thanks to the ECOTEC 1.3L Turbo engine and front-wheel drive drivetrain. This performance makes the Encore GX ideal for city driving, road-tripping, and reducing your carbon footprint without taking the leap to fully electric. Drivers will enjoy the luxurious interior and standard tech, all while keeping their gas bill low.
These are just the top models on our list, and there are many more feats of strength from both GMC and Buick we would love to tell you about. So come see us at Darrell Waltrip Buick GMC or contact us to learn more about the powerful options we have in our showroom.
