Leased this vehicle after having a VW GLI and needed more space for the family. I got a SLE 1.5L. Coming from the GLI the power is down but it's really not a huge deal. This SUV moves when you need it to, and it has an amazingly soft and smooth ride. The quality of the interior is great! Everything works as it should. I got a great deal on the lease. What more can you ask for. As for the other reviews about the "auto/stop"...its and auto/stop people! It saves you money on gas and they take time to get used to. This particular auto/stop is smoother than my Acura believe it or not, but the only draw back to the terrain is that there is no shut off for the auto/stop like my Acura. Other than that this truck is solid folks!

Transmission went out in a few weeks! Backup camera only works half of the time! I paid way too much to have these problems. Very poor quality on these vehicles. Dealership said I was $14500 upside down! They said that they sold me a bad car! WTH I got screwed!

Awesome Ride

Love the ride. Very comfortable interior. Even with the base engine it has plenty of power. Mine is a 2019 slt and it has all the room needed. It is a smaller suv so less cargo space is expected. Handles the road extremely well.

The 2 liter engine is the way to go. Our iPhone 6plus won't connect, the entertainment system is programmed to not read the Windows default file format for music files. The auto stop feature absurdly restarts the engine when it is put into Park. So, when you reach your destination and put the transmission into park the engine starts again. Ridiculous! We have since learned that pressing the stop button when we reach our destination puts the transmission into park and then the engine shuts down. We eventually got the iPhone to connect after an ios update.
