Models also known as Trim Levels, are used to identify a vehicle's level of equipment or special features.
It has a hatchback, that means there is more room for groceries and more shopping, larger items as well. It is compact and can fit into most parking spaces. The vehicle came in a nice metallic blue, so you can get the vehicle in any color you want.
I love this car! It is compact yet big cargo space. Lots of pockets to put small items. Love the leg space in the back for tall people. Easy seat folding when you have something to load in the back.
It gets great gas mileage. I love that it is small and easy to park. I love how it notifies you when you need an oil change and when your tire pressure is low. It is roomy enough for a family of four to drive it on vacation. There is decent storage in the back.
Small enough to feel like a compact car. Great gas mileage. Nice sound system. Quiet ride. Tight suspension. The car handles really well and for being a crossover vehicle, it feels more like a car, which is helpful when parking in small parking spots.
Con- wheelbase is too short, need a bigger gas tank, part replacement is expensive. Pro- plenty of room in the back providing only a two family household. Great fuel mileage, nice dashboard arrangement.
The pros are that they last a long time. I haven't had any problems with my car for 4 years. It is also very fast. I love the interior. It truly is a beautiful car. Brakes are really good as well. Definitely worth the purchase.
Sporty, cute, quick. Big trunk, remote start, power seats and windows, XM radio, CD player, back up camera. All wheel drive which is great in the winter. Screen to see oil level, gas level, tire pressure.
Small size, easy handling, plenty of zip. Wi-Fi hotspot. I liked the color choices. I am short in stature and the seat moves up and pushes forward enough to make driving comfortable. It has a stylish look.
Being a smaller vehicle, I cannot move or purchase furniture, I cannot fit more than 4 additional people in the car. Other than that, it is a nice vehicle. Though it is a small car, it still qualifies as an SUV, and will be charged SUV prices if driving some places for parking.
This car is compact so it is not for long leg driver and tall people driver for the front seat. I do not like the fact it is not push start on this model but keyless start is available to his car. I think this car is very well fit for female or girl car.
It is grey and small so it is hard to find in the parking lots especially when it is sandwiched between two big pickups or SUVs. The roof rack is for looks and it would be nice if you could carry luggage on the roof but you need special equipment for that.
It has a very small engine with terrible power. It is a very weak 4 cylinder which makes it struggle when it goes over even just slight hills. The dash-console seems to hang a little low with unused plastic that does not work well for people with long legs. There are 2 big blind spots due to the panels between the side windows that really hampers views when pulling out of spots.
Short wheelbase,small gas tank. Good room in the back providing you only a two person family, feel every bump the suspension needs to be more of a relaxed car. Parts are expensive, had a ac tube break and the car was still brand news and they used crimp fittings instead of. Radiator type clamps, was not covered in warranty and boy was that very unfair had to pay $675.
The only con about my car now is that it is 4 years old and I like newer cars. It is still a beautiful car and runs great though. Not to much negative stuff to say about it really. Maybe a newer version would be good.
The back seat is very small so it is very crowded when 3 people ride in the back, especially if there is a car seat. It is hard for 3 people to all have seatbelts on in the back seat. Had to get new tires after about a year.
The inside is rather small. There is no center console. The screen is not a touch screen. There is no GPS, other than with OnStar. The back hatch door is not adjustable and I need a small step stool to reach it to close it.
