All-wheel drive can be configured for all trims.Hybrid powertrain is available for increased mileage on the road.Base four cylinder engine has enough oomph to pull the SUV out of traffic.Handling is planted through the turn without much body roll.Good stopping power from the brakes that is also easy to control.Good amount of passenger comfort and convenience features come standard.A lot of features that can be added especially for the lower trims to meet different needs or wants.Excellent safety ratings provide a sense of security for potential buyers.Legroom and headroom is more than sufficient for a compact SUV.Seats are very comfortable and didn’t induce fatigue on longer trips.Ride quality is smooth and well cushioned from bumps on the road.
Rear-wheel drive is only available on the base trim.Pedal stroke is long which seem too long for the brakes to respond.Light steering in non-sport driving modes may feel disconnected from the pavement.Price can increase significantly with all the options available.No third row of seats to accommodate more passengers.Entering the second row of seats felt a little more boxed in.Space for cargo isn’t the roomiest in its class.Fuel efficiency will take a hit for the more powerful powertrains.
