The best balanced X-Country and comfort

Supurb and comfort, fun to drive are the outstanding feeling about this safest car in the world. Having SUV feeling with a little bit hard driving in the off-raod fields, it's quite easy and comfort on high-way and even at a jammed urban environment on the other hand. Perfect balance of comfort and fun to drive is the superiority of this car which is never realized by other manufacturers such as BMW, Merceds and Japanese averagers.

I've had this car now for a month and it handles quite nicely. The mileage is great compared to my mercedes 230. It is very roomy and the special feature of the metal grip is wonderful for the elderly when they are trying to get into the car.

Great Compromise Mileage/Clearance

A very good decision to buy this car. I usually keep my cars for 10 years. Bought this car nine months ago and have put on 8,500 miles. I commute in this car and have taken it off-road and on the sand dunes. It works great in all environments and gets very good mileage for a versatile vehicle (average 21 mpg+). The driver and passenger seats are very comfortable for long trips and off-road. Very reliable so far and the dealer maintenance is great. Not a gas guzzeling SUV and much better than a station wagon. Ya gotta love this cross-over vehicle. Best of several worlds. Also, rated as a very safe vehicle in all types of collissions
