Why this car stands out
This vehicle is ideal for adventurous individuals or small families seeking a practical, fuel-efficient compact SUV with standard 4x4 capability for daily commutes and light off-road excursions.
Strengths
Impressive fuel efficiency for an AWD SUV.
Spacious and functional interior with easy-to-clean materials and versatile cargo space.
Standard 4x4 capability and respectable ground clearance for light off-roading.
Comprehensive suite of standard driver-assist technologies, including Blind Spot Information System and Automatic Emergency Braking.
Tradeoffs
The 1.5L engine can feel underpowered compared to the optional 2.0L engine, especially for quicker acceleration.
IIHS evaluations noted concerns about rear-passenger protection in certain crash tests, preventing a Top Safety Pick award.
Headlight performance, particularly low beams at night and on curves, received moderate to inadequate ratings from IIHS.
Towing capacity is limited to 2,200 lbs, which may not be sufficient for heavier loads.
What you might regret
Those who frequently tow heavy loads, demand robust acceleration, or prioritize top-tier rear passenger crash protection and headlight performance might find this model falls short of their expectations.
