The base S trim gains standard 17-inch aluminum wheels while the mid-range SV receives heated front seats, a remote start system, a heated steering wheel, fog lamps, and a leather-wrapped shift knob.

Pros
Compliant ride,
spacious cabin,
fuel efficient engine.

Cons
Poky acceleration,
low-tech infotainment system,
lacks towing capacity.
