Size is GREAT, so is the FEATURES, and LOVE the saddle colored interior, BUT TERRIBLY UNDERPOWERED! After owning Honda CRV's & an Accord Sport 2.0 Turbo, Civic, and various Ford's since 2000 this vehicle is a turd and it's Turbo'd also. If you want a UNDERPOWERED, UNCOMFORTABLE, and DANGEROUS vehicle then buy one. I couldn't get rid of it fast enough, traded it in less than a month of buying it on a 2021 Honda CRV EXL AWD.

There is a big difference between the naturally aspirated and turbo.

Good looking vehicle. Plenty of interior room. Comfortable ride. Feels very safe to drive. Slightly underpowered so get the one with the turbo.
