Mine is the SE V6 model, but there is no option in the drop down for this trim level...Anyway, this is one of the best cars I have owned. The Pentastar V6 seems to be pretty solid and it has plenty of power. For a 6 cylinder I'd say mpg is about average. The transmission seems a little weak, but I also bought it used with 100k miles so it's been through some wear and tear. The trunk is roomy enough and the opening is very wide. The rear seats folds down 60/40 and has a passthrough behind the armrest for skis or 2x4's and whatnot. For being a base model the interior actually feels very nice with all upper dash and door panels finished with soft touch/padded materials. The technology is quite lacking, as it doesn't have factory Bluetooth, but at least it has an aux port for music. The backseat isn't huge by any means, but I fit comfortably at 5'10''. Reason I am comparing to an Accord is because I had a 2015 Accord LX before purchasing this vehicle. In my opinion, the interior is finished to a much higher standard and there are no rattles. Every interior panel in my Accord seemed to rattle over the tiniest bump. I give the Avenger 4 stars because there are some areas that are not the best. Old technology, plain steering feel and major rear blindspots. I definitely recommend getting blindspot mirror attachments. They've saved me multiple times. Overall it is a great car. Nothing special, but definitely gets the job done.

The front seats have a horrible design flaw. The non-removable head rest tilts your neck 45 degrees forward. After driving for several hours, I was sick with a headache. My friend drove the next day and he got sick too. Another person rode as a passenger and she got sick. You won't notice the bad design in a test drive but you will notice it after about an hour. How did such a bad design ever get approved? So far, everyone who has spent time in the front seat of this car has become ill.
