It's not perfect...

Overall this car is a good car. However going from a SUV to the Mazda 3 Hatchback I can tell a difference of space to get in & out of the car is a major difference. Also it has only 1 charging in the whole car. The USB connections are very useless to charge cell phones since it'll take hours to charge a phone with that method. My kids don't have a whole lot leg space in the backseat area. The feeling of the drive is very good. The brakes work very well. The trunk has a descent amount of space. I'm currently averaging 31 mpg without trying to be a stickler for every ounce of gas.
