Touchscreen interface dangerous and dumb

Other than the touchscreen feature, the car has been pretty good and I like it. My wife likes it. I will never buy another vehicle with just the touchscreen stuff. I want a knob I can quickly and safely manipulate without having to be distracted from watching the road.

Fantastic vehicle; even after 3 years

We’ve owned this gem for 3 weeks and it truly the best car we’ve ever owned. Great street appeal and tremendous acceleration and handling. Voice commends are disappointing. UPDATE: After 3 years, the vehicle is still a great piece of transportation. MPG over 3 years of mixed driving (21,000 miles) is 27.5. Sensus Voice commands still disappointing especially compared with my 2023 XC40 recharge with the Google based system. Only issues were 1) power mirrors went haywire and not holding their position and 2) rear trunk support struts made noise. Both items covered by warranty.

One of the most impressive cars I've owned

This car is awesome. Unbelievable features, great power, and comfortable ride. What more do you want? Reliability? It gets an average score for reliability, but I haven't had the car long enough to comment on its reliability, but it seems to be one of the best cars I've owned - so far.

Car is beautifully designed, comfortable to drive and sit in (I’m 6’4” 230 lbs). Safety features are amazing and the technology is really very advanced for an entry level SUV.

Missing accessories

Got my car and recently noticed that there are NO lights in the backseat. Very inconvenient. In the hatch area there are two tiny lights but not the ceiling one shown. It was supposed to have lights but did not! What sort of car has no lights in the backseat?? Should have gone with the Audi.
