Pros Excellent crash test scores Longer warranty than most Comfortable and quiet
Cons Mediocre cabin materials in lower trim levels Base engine provides slow acceleration
We like the Value trim level. It lives up to its name by giving you a huge number of desirable features for an agreeable price. Its turbocharged engine also produces a pleasing amount of power. We also think that heated seats and the additional stain-resistant cloth make the absence of leather upholstery just fine.
PROS Lots of features for the money Top safety scores Optional turbocharged engine delivers peppy acceleration Comfortable ride on rough roads
CONS Some disappointing interior pieces Some advanced driver safety aids only available on top trim Less cargo space than top rivals Slow acceleration with base engine
