What Edmunds Says

Versatile and affordable, the Matrix is the best compact wagon for hauling people and cargo in its price class.

Versatile cargo area, roomy rear seats, good gas mileage, generous standard equipment list, availability of all-wheel drive and stability control.

Cons

Modest torque output, less fun to drive than its styling suggests.
