The Enclave does have remote start as part of the CXL's Driver Confidence Package. But I would also like to see the keyless RF type transmitter that will allow for just a touch of a button on the outside of the vehicle to unlock the doors.
It is a cool feature, and certainly not a dealbreaker if it didn't have it.
Curiously, in addition to the Enclave I was cross-shopping the Mazda CX-9. It has lots of cool gadgetry features like rain sensing wipers, bluetooth, keyless start and a backup camera (like the Enclave has). However, and unbelievably, the GT model lacks memory for the mirrors, even though it has it for the driver seat. My wife and I have very different mirror settings and it totally defeats the purpose of memory seats if I have to reset the mirrors every time. In fact, it is downright dangerous. I always set my mirrors up so that I have no blind spots, and that takes a certain degree of time and effort. Having to do that every time is a deal breaker.
Second, there is no trip computer. My cars for the last 10 years have had a trip computer and it is a feature I have grown very accustomed to.
Why does Mazda fill the CX-9 with nice tech items like keyless start, rain sensing wipers, Bluetooth and a rear camera, yet they leave out these two very common features?
Of course they are items I can live without, but if I am paying nearly $40K for a vehicle, I expect certain features and amenities, and if I can't get them, there is no reason to spend that kind of money, especially when competitors offer them.
I wish the Buick Enclave had the keyless start, Bluetooth and rain sensing wipers, but I will gladly give up those features for the two that the CX-9 is missing.
