I love this vehicle because it is the right size for me. It is perfect when driving because I do not like small cars but I also do not like big cars so it is perfect. The mileage is also not bad and it takes me where I need to go.
Very good clearance. Gets through a lot of snow. Accelerates quickly. Visibility is wonderful. Heats up quickly when idling. Speakers are good for being stock. Cargo space is amazing. The back cargo door has the option for just the window or the entire door. Back seat is surprisingly spacious.
Sometimes the mileage gets to me because if I go long distances, I will have to fill up more often. I like how it is cheaper to fill up my car than most cars but it is also quicker when I run out of gas when I travel farther.
When accelerating it is noisy. There is a lot of road noise, especially on gravel. The seat belt warning is very annoying and goes off every 10 seconds for over 10 minutes. The seats are a bit hard. The console between the front seats comes over the top of the cup holders and makes it hard to get your coffee cup out.
