I love the practicality of a hatchback, the large storage area, nice seating for 5 (normal size people, of course), great acceleration, good fuel economy (could be a little better, but not bad), solid breaking, fun to drive, great handling.

I have wanted this car for a long time. My old ride finally died this year, so I got the 2017. This is a GREAT pick for anyone who wants a sporty hatchback.
