I Cover & Point Out Many Features Thru-out the Video, Including Written Notes as I Speak, So Grab a Coffee & Stay Tuned to the End ! :-)

My Overview on this Vehicle - Pricing Further Down

* In Short, it's a very good Size SUV/CUV for folks who want on the compact size. Smaller than a CRV, but Bigger than a Nissan Kicks, Kia Soul.
* Good Headroom Front/Rear & Good Cargo w/flexible storage options.
* It's a Well Thought out layout, practical use of space
* Nice materials, fit and finish seems just fine
* Very comfy seating, for it's class/category
* Lots of Std. Features. Including the Safety Related features !
* It's fuel efficiency is Very Good !
** Consumer Reports has it as a 5/5 Score for Predicted Reliability !!

* One Con for me is not having a Turbo or larger/more power engine option, for those of us that care/want that power.

* I don't have any driving dynamics for you yet, as I'll be taking it out in a week. But my wife did rent one once, and I did test drive it a year ago (no video), and I recall it's not very fast. It's enough power for most people to get around from point A to B just fine. I'd like to have seen, at least 10HP and 10 lb.ft. of torque more,. Just a bit to give it bit more get up and go, for when it's loaded up and weighed down. Perhaps if it had like a 2.5L engine.

* Go Test Drive it. It seems like a great option to consider !!
