Point A to B car, lacks decent power though

The main complement I can say it is very comfortable, especially compared to other German sedans. It’s nothing luxurious, but doesn’t cause discomfort either. The car itself is rather bland, no real curve appeal. The body styling could have used a lot more refinement before they put it out. The power is very lacking, especially due to the awful transmission shifting. While it shifts smooth as a champ, the timing is awful it takes a good 3-5 seconds between gears. First to second is the most noticeable, with slight improvements in the higher gears. The touch screen isn’t the best, I’ve used. Overall a very budget feeling in what was supposed to be a higher line car. Overall a nice rides with some quirks.
