EDITORS' RATINGS OVERALL SCORE:
Overall
| A versatile vehicle that spans the gap between car and truck. It's not perfect at either extreme, but is a good compromise in the middle. |
DETAILED EDITORS' RATINGS
Dynamics
| Inadequate power, but it drives more car-like than the others. |
Comfort
| Quiet and smooth car-like ride. Driving position is good, but not perfect for taller individuals. |
Function
| Logical control layout, but the bed is small with large wings that impede rearward visibility. A dual acting tailgate and in-bed trunk is extremely functional, but the spare is hard to access with a load aboard. |
Design/Build Quality
| Assembly quality is top-notch. The interior design is over-the-top and spartan. |
Cargo Hauler
| An in-bed trunk keeps gear dry and out of sight. |
Comfortable
| It's car-like drive offers more comfort than a typical truck. |
