Vehicle purchased for AWD capability. We live in cottage country on 2 mile privately maintained gravel road in a snowbelt area. Have put 6000 miles on vehicle since mid August 2006, including a round trip to Florida of about 3000 miles. The Torrent has been a delight to drive and handles well in all weather conditions including snow, slush and ice covered roads through through the mountains. Although not quite as roomy as our previous 2003 Pontiac Montana it comfortably holds all our luggage, golf clubs/pull carts and two Bikes (hitch mounted). Our trim level includes leather, 17 inch wheels and premier Pioneer audio system. Acceleration and handling is good, except for turning radius.

A Great SUV

This is a great SUV. It's got a lot of interior room for the smaller size. The sound system is nice, but could have more reliable speakers (already broke one). It is not powerful enough to tow more then a little trailer to the dump. The 17" wheels are really nice. Great SUV.

Outstanding Vehicle

The Torrent is an outstanding vehicle. The styling is second to none with plenty of power and great handling. The interior is very well laid out and stylish. Drive 75 plus miles per day and the Torrent handles well and is very comfortable. Handles very well with the AWD. Quality of the vehicle is excellent. GM definitley got this one right.

One minor problem requiring return to dealership. Fuel economy not quite up to projected EPA ratings. Quiet, smooth ride & good interior room. Should have rear disc brakes.
