Launching the nameplate’s third generation with a thorough overhaul and many new features and updates, the 2025 Buick Enclave gets everything from expanded exterior dimensions to a 30-inch infotainment display.
GM also introduced changes to the color palette of the Buick Enclave, with three exterior paints retired for the 2025 model year and two new colors – Ocean Blue Metallic (color code GXP) and Smokey Amethyst Metallic (color code GXK) – introduced. This is GM Authority’s closer look at the Ocean Blue paint option.
Ocean Blue Metallic is tagged with color code GXP and touch-up paint number WA-136H. It is one of seven paint colors available on the 2025 Buick Enclave, five of which carry over from the 2024 model year and two of which are new for 2025. Here’s the full list of exterior paints on offer for the 2025 Enclave (color codes in parenthesis):
- Cherry Red Tintcoat (GNT)
- Ebony Twilight Metallic (GB8)
- Moonstone Gray Metallic (GXD)
- Summit White (GAZ)
- White Frost Tricoat (G1W)
- Ocean Blue Metallic (GXP – new for 2025)
- Smokey Amethyst Metallic (GXK – new for 2025)
The 2025 Buick Enclave offers Ocean Blue Metallic on the Preferred and Avenir trims, but not on the mid-range Sport Touring. Ocean Blue is priced at $495 extra if optioned on the Preferred trim level, but is offered as a no-charge paint choice on the Avenir trim.
The color can be combined with all available interior colorways for the Preferred and Avenir trims, including Ebony with Sky Cool Gray accents, Sandstone with Ebony accents, Cool Gray with Ebony accents, and Cool Gray with Slate Blue accents.
For reference, four interior colorways are offered for the 2025 Buick Enclave, though with additional total options because of the choice between leatherette, perforated leatherette, and perforated leather upholstery:
- Ebony with Sky Cool Gray accents
- Sandstone with Ebony accents
- Cool Gray with Ebony accents
- Cool Gray with Slate Blue accents
As a reminder, the Enclave features a refreshed grille, front fascia, and rear fascia as part of its third-gen exterior overhaul. Inside the cockpit, a new 30-inch display headlines the changes made to the interior. The standard tech suite includes, but is not limited to, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Blind Zone Steering Assist, Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist and Departure Warning.
The 2025 Buick Enclave started arriving in showrooms during July 2024. As first discovered by GM Authority, pricing starts at $46,395 for the FWD variant of the Preferred trim and ranges up to $61,395 for the Avenir with all-wheel drive.
All trims draw standard motivation from the turbocharged 2.5L I4 LK0 gasoline engine cranking out 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque. The GM eight-speed automatic transmission sends power to the pavement, with front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations offered.
The 2025 Enclave continues to be underpinned by the GM C1 platform for the new generation. Production of the crossover takes place at the GM Lansing Township plant in Michigan.
