i have been using this small suv for 8 yrs. it's a great gas-saving car (like a small sedan), in addition it's very powerful (~170 horsepower I believe), and quiet too, not like some other brands which are quite noisy when you speed up. This vehicle is also very safe and very comfortable to drive , and the safety rating is 5 stars, although I have never has any problem with the safety, but the 5 star rating made me very comfortable. exterior design is also worth to mention , it very streamlined, and make it look like a modern one. interior needs a little improved, because some times I feel not so spacious, although other people think it's big enough.
