My vehicle is large and can accommodate a lot of people. It is also very comfortable. Storage space is excellent. The drive is very smooth. Not many problems. There were a couple of recalls but not many other issues. I would recommend this vehicle for larger families.

A reliable workhorse/daily driver, great for families.
It is a reliable workhorse, I haul furniture and other loads in it pretty regularly. I have never had an issue with starting the vehicle in any weather, it warms up/cools off quickly, and has plenty of room for people or packages. My biggest complaint was that it is not super fuel efficient, which was especially noticeable when I had a 60 mile commute.

Mazda cx-9 personal pros.
No problems, very reliable, had one recall, nice amount of space for anything you want if you get a lot of groceries or are a musician. Pretty straightforward to fix yourself if you have a problem. I love you reliable mazda’s are and how versatile they are for any application especially weather conditions.

Mazda cx-9 a/c issues and comfort review.
I love our car however the cx-9 has issues with the a/c. We bought it certified pre owned and after 1 month the a/c went out. When researching this we learned it is very common in this model of car. The a/c is the only problem we have had. It has so much room and fits everyone very comfortably.

Good car for driving the family around.
This car is very comfortable and has lots of space in the backseat for children. There have been some reliability issues, but when it is normal, the car runs great. Although it is a large car, it feels sporty and handles very well. The ability to fold down the back seats is also nice.
Heather S
on April 10, 2021
Overall, great SUV and good value for cost of vehicle.
Good maneuverability, nice interior and features. I trust the reliability of Mazda, and have owned several. The gas mileage is terrible, but it is a large vehicle, so to be expected. Has aged well. Next auto purchase will also probably be a Mazda, but smaller sedan as I do not need all the space now that my kids have their own vehicles.

A great value family car.
The vehicle has been working great for the past few years. Only recently have there been some basic and easily fixable problems. The gearbox had an issue and had to be replaced, but other than that very minor issues have occurred. The vehicle has held up well over time and I will continue to use it.
Amber S

Review of a 2012 Mazda cx-9.
We love our Mazda cx-9 -- it is very comfortable for taking long trips -- such as pa to Florida. In term of reliability, it has never failed us -- the downside of this vehicle is low gas mileage -- tires are extremely expensive -- my wife complains that give the vehicle size, there are blind spots that are bothersome when changing lanes -- all in all, we love this vehicle and do not look forward to replacing it.
Nancy W
on March 12, 2021
Large comfortable safe stability.
It is a great car. It rides smooth. The gas pedal is set awkward and it has a bad blind spot. While it can travel at a good speed it is not zippy. It handles good and is responsive. Gas mileage is ok not great. Dash is set in a good way. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone that likes room, comfort and reliability.

Pros and cons of Mazda cx-9 terrible 4th gear downshift.
My Mazda has already lost two visors both sides broke, both front window motors have died, there’s an ammonia smell coming from exhaust and I constantly have the check engine light come on because of the gas cap which I have already replaced keeps loosening. I do love the sound system though. The car drives well, and has great engine power. However the gas mileage is low possibly eva use of the gas cap situation.
Heriberto V
on March 3, 2021
My car is a good smooth car that is good for traveling and I recommend it.
My vehicle is something that I rely on to do different things. I use it to shop for groceries and any errands that I might have to do. I like using my vehicle for travel. I dislike the amount of gas it takes.
Susanne E
on February 20, 2021
I like the overall look of the car. It is now 8 years old but the looks fresh.
The head room is tight. When I exit the car I hit my head on the door jam. I am 5’3”. Gas mileage is only 19 mpg. The windshield slant/angle gives off a glare of the trees and sky. This glare causes issues with viewing the road. I find getting the doors to all unlock at the same time. Sometimes only the drivers side unlocks with the remote. Other times both front doors will unlock.
Kimberly S
on February 18, 2021
It has a nice smooth ride.
It has a lot of room. The seats are comfortable. It drivers like a car and it is sporty looking. The only issue I had with this car is the recall for the airbag.
Heather H
on February 17, 2021
Perfect for a family with kids.
I love my Mazda! I couldn't ask for a better vehicle! It has sunroof, leather seats, backup camera, touchscreen stereo, it drives smooth! I would recommend buying a Mazda cx9 you would love it and it has plenty of trunk space. Just the body style of this vehicle is pretty with the factory rims on it. I wouldn't change anything about this car!
Kassidy F
on February 13, 2021
Mazda cx-9: reliable and comfortable, good driving car.
I like the way that this car drives. It is very smooth and easy to drive. The gas mileage is reasonable for a car of this size, but in the future I will probably get a car with slightly better gas mileage. This car is pretty bulky so that sometimes it is hard to maneuver into small parking spots in parking garages. I like the inside features such as the seat warmers and stereo system.
Heather C
on February 12, 2021
That it is very comfortable.
My car is fully loaded. I love that it has Bluetooth and heated seats! I only wish it had a heated steering wheel.
Candice W
on February 8, 2021
Gas hog! Can not speed up quickly.
The gas mileage sucks and it is gutless. I do not like the look of the vehicle. I do not like how awkward it is to park, too long, guess I should have considered that before buying! I was pressured by the salesman to buy this particular vehicle. I do like that it is AWD though.

Love my 2012 Mazda cx-9, but not tight fit for a young family.
I love my 2012 Mazda cx-9. It drives and handles amazingly. I purchased it when I was pregnant with my first child and the third row seat sold it for me. I now have two young children still in car seats and it is getting a little tight for us. My husband is a bigger man and although he does ride in and drive my car, it is a tight squeeze for him. (he's 6'3, 280 lbs).
Lillian N
on December 28, 2020
My cx9 has a lot of interior space, 3 rows of seats it is super convenience.
My car is excellent, it is the right size, everybody is comfortable. The car is reliable, in terms of the cost per miles per gallon it is a little bit of expensive but other than that, the cars is great. So far I have had no concerns or troubles at all with my car, I love my cx9. I should consider the same vehicle again.
Loren F

It's a reliable vehicle that stands up to the daily demands
Compact enough and yet roomy. It is a solidly built vehicle and handles beautifully. It has not required much service.
Aletia W
on December 22, 2020
Great family car with a smooth ride.
I really like how smooth of a ride I get with my car. It is a very dependable vehicle. I do not like the headrest because I cannot adjust just them without adjusting the seat to get comfortable. I love the dual controls for the temperature. There is room for 6 comfortably and even on long trips.
Angie B
on December 22, 2020
It drives well and has a good reputation as a reliable crossover car.
I've always liked the Mazda Brand and I like the way it drives, the way it handles, the way it looks. Lots of room, but I do wish it had better gas mileage.
Ashley P
on November 26, 2020
2012 Mazda review. Comfortable, flexible and reliable.
I love this vehicle. I love the comfort and room it provides. I love the ability to have the third row for extra seats or the ability to put that row all the way down to provide a bigger trunk space. I like the set up around the steering wheel, middle console and radio area. It works well and feels places appropriately. I have had to replace a few parts but this seems to be because the previous owner did not take as good of care on this car. Overall, the parts have not been crazy expensive like I have had on other cars. The only part that felt like a lot was for an extra key. Overall, I love my car. I love the size, the flexibility, the comfort and the reliability.
Dana W
on November 22, 2020
Load her up! What do you need to move?
The cx-9 is very reliable and comfortable. It is not too big but I still call it my truck because it will haul almost anything I need. I have loaded it up with rocks before and it handled it just fine! I love this vehicle and will keep it forever. It get decent gas mileage as well. It seats 4 easily and 6 in a pinch.
Ashlea G
on November 13, 2020
Great and reliable car! It runs well, looks nice and is comfortable.
I really like my Mazda CX 9. It has been great with no problems. It is very comfortable and fits 6 people comfortably. I wish it got better gas mileage, though!
Courtney C
on November 7, 2020
It's dependable. This is my third Mazda, and all have been reliable.
I like having plenty of cargo space and an optional third row. I do not like having to fold and slide second row seats to access the third row. I would prefer bucket seats in the second row.
Eve N

This SUV is very reliable. The features when new were great. Technology (radio/ Bluetooth/ backup camera are useable but dated.

Stylish, comfortable and roomy
Roomy, smooth ride. A bit noisy (l hear the wind through the windows). Bose speakers are terrific. Low head room entering/exiting the car. Gas mileage is poor (19-20 mpg). Third row is a plus. Cargo space is very good. Currently have 88K miles with usual wear/tear. No major engine issues. Still stylish after 7 years.
Melissa M
on October 9, 2020
Best vehicle I have had or driven. Safety features are great, smooth ride.
I love my vehicle, it is my new baby. Plenty of room even with the third row seating. I am tall and plenty of extra leg room. Seats go down for extra room for loading anything for transport. Handles excellent in every kind of weather. Rides smooth and handles excellent. Would definitely give this vehicle 10 stars.
Kayla N

The Pontiac. Hell but reliable.
I have a Pontiac grand am. It is probably one of the worst cars I've ever owned. It has don't nothing but cause me problems since the day I got it. I can say it has hung right in there with me though. I look at it like this she's just a cry baby sometimes.
Tanya G

CX-9, a waste of money, with continuing problems
The brakes on both front and rear have had multiple issues. Throwing clips from both front calipers, multiple times. I have replaced brakes and rotors multiple times, calipers, all hardware and the brakes continue to be an issue. The road noise is terrible, and even top of the line tires do not help. Suspension system is cheap, with continued problems.
Nancy W
on September 4, 2020
Large, spacious, and comfortable interior.
I like this vehicle. It runs and handles good. It does have issues. The gas pedal is at an awkward angle. The blind spots are large. It is also not wind resistant. It gets blown around easy. The seats are very comfortable and it has a very nice interior.
Brandy H
on August 28, 2020
The window components have all needed to be replaced.
Lots of plastic parts that break in the arizona sun, black exterior and black interior. Good gas mileage.
Natalie S
on August 27, 2020
By far, the most important thing is that it is reliable, comfortable, and safe.
I absolutely adore my car. I have not had any major issues since I purchased it in 2016. The power windows have gone out, but are easily replaced. Overall, it drives smooth and quiet and feels luxurious.
Jamie L

Mazda cx-9: a great full size SUV.
I love my car, it is performance is great, it handles very well. It has the latest safety features such as hands free talking, back up camera and lane monitoring. For a full-size SUV it gets decent gas mileage. The interior looks very nice, leather details and seats.
Amber H
on August 26, 2020
Great vehicle but needs some improvements.
This vehicle runs great and handles well. Three AWD is nice to have. The interior is nice. I think the third row seats needs more leg room to make it more comfortable for passengers. I would like for it to be easier to clean inside. I think the seats could be easier to move up and back with the second and third row seats.
Amy S
on August 19, 2020
Seems to go through brakes and rotors once a year, doesn't seem logical.
I really like it in general however, it needs brakes and rotors every single inspection and I don't really believe it's based on how I drive but the vehicle itself. I finally switched to a new auto care place opposed to the Mazda dealership to see if that makes a difference but my inspection isn't for another two months yet so I don't know if it has. The gas mileage isn't very good either.
Karina P
on July 20, 2020
Perfect family car: safe and reliable.
It is really spacious, safe and reliant. Have had minimum problems. Had some issues with transmission but car had manufacturer warranty so was able to get it fixed. It gets good gas mileage and is safe in the winter time. Is all wheel drive. Acceleration can sometimes be an issue.

Mazda cx-9 is a great family car with great gas mileage.
I love driving my Mazda cx-9, gas mileage is awesome. A full tank will last will usually last a 5 hour trip without having to fill up. All the passengers fit comfortably, the only downside is the 3rd row, the passengers have a difficult time getting in and out.
Amber P
on June 27, 2020
An all around good family car with plenty of room and features for everyone.
Has had no problems so far, the driver's seat is very roomy, has all the extras you can ask for in a 2012 car; backup camera, GPS, Bluetooth connection, etc. Third row is nice, not very roomy but good for smaller kids, with the third row down it offers a lot of trunk space, all seats fold to make it easy to move large objects.
Kevin L
on May 31, 2020
We loved the cx-9 so much we bought a cx-7!
Has had two recalls but I loved it because it is a seven seater but drives like a car. I compared it to the ford explorer but it has a narrow view from the windshield. I got some extras like luggage rails on top, Bluetooth, automatic seats and all weather mats. I bought it new in 2013 and it still drives like new.
Gina H
on May 18, 2020
Smooth quiet ride and luxury leather
Bought it used a few months ago and have had it into the shop for minor problems that were cheap fixes. It drives nice and is quiet. Love the AWD. The sunroof is great as well. Third row is usable. You have to flip the 2nd row seat forward to get in. At first I thought this would be inconvenient but it's really easy to flip the seat forward then lock it back in place.
Vanessa M
on May 2, 2020
Years after having a Mazda cx-9.
The windows in my vehicle currently do not work and after years of having my car I have attempted to fix the windows however the window break again. Other than that the car is good and it is easy to navigate. Connecting the car to your phone is very helpful to use and the sunroof is nice.

Mazda CX-9 it is big and roomy
I love how big and roomy it is. The only problem I have is it shifts hard between gear 4 and 5. I love how it has 3 rows which I have used several times. I like being able to have the option if we need it. Also the inside is big when I fold all the seats down. I have hauled all kinds of things and we recently just moved and came in handy.
Summer R

My car seats 7, which makes it great for family. It is great on gas and does great on the road. I honestly cannot wait to buy a newer one.

Stefanie S

I like the size and style. I dislike the red dash lights. I dislike the difficulty lowering the seats in the third row. I like the reliability.
Jeanie L

It has multiple safety features and handles well in all weather conditions.
I love a lot of things about my Mazda. It is comfortable. It has many safety features. It does have 3 rows of seating. I feel like there is not a lot of storage space when the third row of seats is being used

It has great space and the third row is easy to fold up and down.
I like the handling and the space. It is too similar to too many other cars on the road.
Sharon R

Great car for a large family!!
Good on gas mileage so do not have to stop often on long trips. Can haul several items and some pretty large things. Glad the rear seats fold down to increase the cargo area. Seat are comfortable. Bought as a used vehicle so this vehicle was what we could afford and what was available at the time. Not crazy about the color- black. Hard for me to get in my seat.
Arthur G
on February 15, 2020
Mazda cx-9 was a great choice for me.
My used Mazda 2012 cx-9 has been very good so far. There have been a few problems, but nothing you wouldn't expect from a used car. Its driving performance is great, as is it comfortably. I enjoy the driving ability of my car, and glad about the purchase that I made.

7 seats spacious for a smaller SUV.
I like the seating. I hate the cost of parts for repair. The back seat belt always breaks when dropping the back seats for storage. Bad design.
Jim Bania

Reliable, good handling SUV
What I appreciate the most is the AWD, & adequate power. I've had this vehicle for almost 4 yrs. Regular maint @ 115,000 mi. So far was changing fluids, filters & brakes, spark plugs. I have towed 5,000 lbs. With several trips, driving sensibly with no issues. Like the white leather seats & roomy interior. Best vehicle I've owned so far.
Christa

Faulty 4 wd
I do not love my car. Yes it has 7 seats which is the main reason i bought it. It goes through brakes ans rotars alot, the buckles in the back seat annoy me. The middle seat is not easy to manuever to gain access to the third row. And now the 4 wd light is stuck on and its looking like 2500 bucks to fix it. I am beyond discouraged with mazda. A car is a major investment for an average family like mine and not only do you need it to be practical and reliable but you want to love it. I do not love it and cant wait to part ways with it.

Mazda 2012 cx-9 reviews!!
The Mazda has held up well. I have been having some issues with it lately but, it is 8 and has 122,000 miles. Rides great, comfy. It could have more features though. Love the heated leather seats and the way it drives though. I would definitely go with another Mazda for my next car.
DK D
on January 20, 2020
In great condition and has not failed me yet in the seven years that I have had it.
Problems: I have had this car for almost 7 years now and no major problems have risen. The only problem that I can think of is the gas cap. It tends to loosen and then the check engine light turns on. All I have to do is tighten the gas cap and it's all good! Reliability: this car is extremely reliable. It runs well and I have had the privilege of driving it from okc to phoenix, AZ multiple times. I haven't had a breakdown or anything like that. Comfort: this car is very comfortable! Features: when we got the car, we just got the basic one. So it didn't have any of the high end features but I was able to install my own touchscreen and now it has Bluetooth for my phone to connect to!
Sha B

Mazda CX 9 - A Reliable Choice for those who need their car to be there when they need it.
I have almost 140,000 miles on my CX-9 and it runs great. I've had no mechanical issues. I've had issues with the rear door locks working and the a.c. Needs a new fan belt but that's about it. I'm very pleased with the car.
Brooke C
on January 7, 2020
Overall a wonderful vehicle. I would like to see a few improvements though.
Overall I love my Mazda cx 9. I bought it as my first 'mommy car'. It's very pretty from the outside. It looks expensive. It drives well. Some reviews I had read mentioned it is a loud ride, but I never notice any more noise than any other car. I love the third row option when needed. We keep those seats folded down most of the time and have plenty of room back there for my double stroller and bags or whatever if shopping. We have 3 car seats across the middle row. That was tough to do, but with some research I found 3 that would fit safely across. I'm bummed the 3rd row doesn't have tethers available. Therefore making that row useless for my family with 3 kids in car seats. Overall, we love our vehicle though. Just a few things like gas mileage and 3rd row tethers could use improving.
Randi H
on January 5, 2020
I love that it fits my family and is relatively easy to get into the back seats. I dislike the headrest on the driver's seat because when I wear my head up it hits in the wrong spot. I wish the back had a little more usable grocery/ hauling space.
It's comfortable to drive not too big not too small
Angela M
on December 21, 2019
Nice upscale features for a comfortable daily driver
The interior is very nice. I like the leather seats - very durable and easy to care for but they look very nice. There is lots of room for comfortable seating. There is easy access to the third row. When I need more room for storage or hauling things, the seats fold down in various ways to accommodate the room needing for hauling/storage and still provide room for seating if needed. I like that the headrest to the back seats fold down for better rear view vision without having to fold down the whole seat.
Alicia H
on December 12, 2019
3rd row makes a tight situation
I really like my vehicle. Very reliable., good on gas. No major problems. I do find the seats a little uncomfortable and the third row is not meant for adults. Not enough leg room. Also, when 3rd row is up and being used, there is no trunk space. Nice vehicle
Sarah C
on November 27, 2019
This car is a great family car.
This car has many safety features that make it easier to drive, such as the blind spot monitors. The inside feels spacious, but it does not feel like you are driving a large car. There is lots of room for passengers and cargo which is definitely a plus. A great family car if you do not want to get a minivan.
Michelle C
on November 24, 2019
It has 3 rows of seating but still seems compact.
I love the room it has. The third row is really helpful for soccer carpool. I dislike that it does not have a backup camera. I love the interior.
Margaret B
on November 11, 2019
It is AWD and has a third row for extra seating.
I like that it is AWD, has a 3rd row and plenty of room. I don't like the thin metal, it has dings in the door. I don't like that the rear door swings up and doesn't provide anything over your head when it's raining, I don't like that the rear door window doesn't open.
Debbie T

I really like my vehicle. It has good options (sunroof, bose speakers, and leather seats). However, I have had two issues, one with the side mirror shaking and the other with the sunroof leaking at times.
Gina W

Mazda cx-9: lots of room, 3rd row can fold flat to haul dogs and furniture.
Engine had to be completely replaced! The o2 sensors, radiator, and the tires had to be replaced as well. Overall, I would say it has been a good car for me because my kids were younger and we needed the room that it has (3 rows). Some of the leather on the armrest has split a little. I have owned the car for 7 years and it is still going strong!
Stephanie S
on October 27, 2019
Satisfied Mazda cx-9 owner!
My car is 8 years old and still runs great! I haven't had any major issues but I do regularly keep up with maintenance. I will buy another Mazda SUV for my future vehicles because this one has been reliable and has all the fancy upgrades. The only issue I have had is with the Bluetooth connection but I haven't put in the time to try and figure out the source of the issue.

Room for more - easy fold down seats lets you customize your space.
I love my cx9. The optional third row gives me the extra seating when needed, or the extra trunk space when needed. It has been a very reliable and comfortable car
Jamie L
on October 8, 2019

I like the look and how it drives. I like how roomy it is. I do not like that it is bad on gas. It also has needed a significant amount of repairs and I do not think the quality is great.
Brooke R
on October 6, 2019
Big enough for a family and the kids friends.
It is reliable, gets good gas mileage, and has plenty of room, plus it has all the features in a vehicle I would like, my favorite is the heated seats, and the fact my kids can be spread it because of the third row of seats or we can bring through friends along when they want.
Debbie D

Side mirror vehicle alert
I overall like my vehicle a lot. An issue that I do have are the side mirror image light comes on randomly when I am using blinker. Sometimes it's just because I pass a pole. Other times maybe a leaf has flown by. It doesn't happen all the time, but enough to annoy to me.
Lindsay P
on September 12, 2019

Comfortable, roomy, gives a nice ride. Looks good, all wheel drive, very safe and reliable. Haven't had any problems yet. Love our 3rd row too.
Sarah B

It has a third row or the back two rows can be laid down to move large items.
I love my vehicle because it is comfortable, roomy, and has the ability to see my family of six. I also love the style of the vehicle on the exterior and the leather interior.
Abby H
on August 27, 2019
If your gas budget is tight. Do not consider this car.
It is a very reliable car do not get me wrong. But it drive like a boat. The individual air settings are very poor and the music auxiliary option is low quality. The sound system is very detailed and nice maybe a little too much bass but that is adjustable. Premium black leather seating. But it is a gas guzzler. $55-60 to fill a tank for 300 miles.
Joe G

The gas cap makes the check engine light come on if it is not put on right

Ben R
on July 16, 2019
Love hate relationship with my car Mazda 2012.
My car has leather seats and it is really comfortable. The only downside is the gas consumption. Every week I put $40 of gas to fill the tank. It is has a backup camera that is very helpful when reversing. Another issue is my brakes after owning this car for about 4 years the brakes are really loud, I had it fixed before but the problem keeps recurring.

The brakes seem to be a problem - they squeak quite often even after replacement until they warm up. The seat belt on the drivers side - the clip bangs the side of door when not on - no matter where you place it. Cannot open auto trunk unless car is off or in park.

This vehicle has just about everything our family of four needs.
I really like my vehicle. It has a V8, so plenty of power and AWD for Minnesota winters. Heated leather seats come standard. I also chose this car because it has a back row with two seats that easily fold down. The vehicle is not much longer that the station wagon we had previously, but has the extra seats. The only issue I've had is that some trim around one of the wheel wells came off, it's just cosmetic, but I don't think it should have come off so easily. Otherwise, I really love my car.

It drives nicely and we like to keep it clean to have others ride in it.
That my car has a lot of pick up and go speed and it is safe and roomy.

CX-9 Rocks! Best 3 row SUV!
The Mazda CX-9 is great. It's very comfortable and handles well. It seats 7 people comfortably and could seat 8 as well. We also love the versatility and ability to fold down the seats to haul things.

Nice seats that are plush.
Comfortable, spacious, good gas mileage, leather seats, and not too expensive. The trunk feature is always a plus and the options in the vehicle.

We Love the Mighty Mazda for Long Trips!
I love my Mazda! Where to start? It gets great gas mileage. It's very comfortable - it seats seven very easily! The center console and rear seat drinks tray are very well-designed - the front console is deep and has a phone charger port that works even if the car is turned off! The rear seats are easily folded down to make room in the rear for carrying larger loads. We can fit a family of four, a dog, two friends and all our luggage with room to spare! We looked at other cars but the smooth handling and racing steering wheel onbis over to Mazda. You get the roominess and comfort of an SUV but the handling and driving fun of a sports car!

It is red with white leather interior it is very easy to do road trips in
It is amazing for a family, it is very comfortable and it has been one of the best purchases we have made. We are very happy with it, although we have had it for a while now so problems have began to arise, however we do take a lot of road trips and the car still looks brand new

It works. It keeps my family as safe as it should. It looks good.
I like the space versus the amount of people it holds. I like the aerodynamics. I dislike the cargo area shape and it seems big but actually isn't.

2012 Mazda CX-9 review: the driving feel is the selling point
The feel of the driving is the selling point. We have liked the flexibility of the third row for additional seating. We have found it to be a reliable vehicle, had very few problems. The only things I can think of that are somewhat negatives are: 1. No separate air conditioning vent for third row seating, 2. The seat belt for the middle seat in second row is a pain to mess with, and 3. Some visibility issues when you look back, but I think that might be the case with any larger SUV like this.

There is a lot of legroom in each of the three rows.
I like the interior space, especially the adjustable second row, and the overall look and styling. It's a fun car to drive.

It has good pick up and rides smooth.
I like the smooth drive and speed. I do not like the size. I wish it was smaller and I wish it had a sunroof.

The car is shaped like a bullet and compact. But it has 3 row seats.
The car is spacious and comfortable. The starter or something else is acting up. The car is a blue/gray color. It has 3 row seats. No back up camera or side sensors. Leather interior. Compact car. Good gas mileage. Great family vehicle. Great working ac and heating. Plenty of room for family. Great car for beach trips and road trips.

I like the traction control option.
My car is very comfortable, spacious, the way it rides is so smooth. Good gas mileage, able to talk on the phone via Bluetooth.
