Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Perky optional plug-in hybrid powertrain,
futuristic appearance,
well-equipped from EX trim up.

Cons
Base powertrain is pretty poky,
buzzy engine sounds under heavy throttle,
not as fuel efficient in our testing as last year's model.

By:

Smooth and quiet ride quality
High fuel economy
Spacious seating and cargo area for a compact car

Slow acceleration
No option for all-wheel drive
