AWD vs. FWD – What’s Right for You?
At Briggs Buick GMC of Manhattan, we know choosing your next Buick is about more than style and comfort. One key decision is whether to go with All-Wheel Drive (AWD) or Front-Wheel Drive (FWD).
AWD automatically delivers power to all four wheels when needed, giving you better traction and stability in rain, snow, or uneven terrain. FWD, on the other hand, sends power only to the front wheels, which often results in better fuel efficiency, lower maintenance, and a more affordable purchase price.
Buick offers both options across its lineup. The Envision comes standard with AWD, the Encore GX and Enclave offer FWD with available AWD, and the Envista is offered exclusively in FWD.
The right choice depends on your lifestyle. If you often drive in challenging weather or on rougher roads, AWD provides added confidence. If most of your driving is on city streets or highways, FWD may be the more efficient and cost-effective choice.
At Briggs Buick GMC of Manhattan, we’re here to help you weigh the benefits of each and find the Buick that fits your needs. Stop by for a test drive and see the difference for yourself.

While the Buick Enclave was just unveiled last week, it wasn’t the only exciting news that dropped from the two brands we provide here at Briggs Buick GMC. That’s right, the 2025 GMC Yukon was also announced. So far, we’ve only received a teaser image of the new model’s front fascia, which you can see up above on this page. To be more specific, that’s an image of the new 2025 GMC Yukon AT4. The brand chose to showcase that trim since it’s the fifth anniversary of the AT4 trim line.
Since it’s also the 25th anniversary of the Denali trim line, we expect the brand might release more exciting images in the weeks and months to come. Anyways, more information about the Yukon is expected to be released later this year, but until then we thought we’d go over what we do know about it as well as what the internet thinks we can expect from the new model.
