Very roomy, we have had 6 adults (total) in the car many times, even the third row passengers are comfortable, with the exception of possibly leg room if you are tall. But in no way do you feel squished. see full Buick Enclave review |

2012 | 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The third room has enough head room to even fit an adult comfortably and is wide enough to accommodate three individuals. It is one of the few SUV's that offer 8 seat capacity and has a larger interior capacity than a Tahoe. see full GMC Acadia review |
