Absolutely Love This Car, Thanks Edmunds
This is the second car I purchased in the last 2 years following everything I learned from Edmunds. Edmunds and their information e.g consumer reviews are an invaluable aid and extremely accurate! I could not be more pleased. I love this car. I have the high end, with Leather and Moon Roof. The car is exceptionally comfortable; handles well; build quality is excellent. A pleasure to drive. Roomy, but deceivingly smaller in appearance. I have now compared it to all the major competitors in the parking lots around town; and it's right up there with a 4 Runner, Pilot, Murano and Grand Jeep.
Excellent crashing!
I missed a stop sign, hopped over some water,went downward to the landing of a grass field, hit some little trees and still was able to drive it home. I never crashed before by the landing was like a Cushion. I love my Torrent!

One Year Review
We lived in AZ, were moving to VA and needed something for the winter months that could also move a lot of stuff cross-country. The tires are specially made and when we got a flat in Santa Cruze, NM we were stranded for a few days until a new tire came in. It handles well in the snow but the wiper blades are in a well that easily fill with snow and ice requiring you to get out and clean it on dangerous roads. The materials for the interior are very cheap. The turning radius is horrible. Gas mileage is not what they claim. Overall value though is very good and we enjoy it. The clamps on the rack do not hold at all.
Very happy with vehicle.
I leased my 2006 on Christmas Eve 2005. I am very impressed at the amount of interior room the vehicle has. I am a tall individual so I drive with the seat all the way back and reclined. Not one complaint from passengers seated directly behind me. Reliability so far has been top notch. I like the way the dashboard is situated. Only complaint I have is, I think the manufacturer could have made the vehicle more powerful. 185 horsepower is just not enough for this sized vehicle. A sufficient amount would be about 215 horsepower.
Very Good SUV
Have had the car for 3+ years. No reliability issues. Still driving on the original tires, brakes and wheel bearings. Just drove from Denver to St Louis with ave mileage of 24-25 mpg. Very good in snow. Peppy around town but not as much fun to drive as my Honda Accord. Love the interior room and cargo capacity. Can haul more than a Jeep Commander.
