When a window is even slightly down it's pretty noisy.
Advice to buyer:
If 10 days of ownership is an example of what to expect for years to come, I highly recommed this vehicle.
Detailed review:
Excellent vehicle for those who have physical limitations restricting ease of entry and exit. Very comfortable front seats. Well designed interior..lots of storage space. Very spacious for it's size. Drives like a dream. The 4 cyl. engine is all the power we need. Transmission and gearing makes great utilization of the smaller motor. Very solid and tight fitting. No rattles or squeaks. Excellent fit and finish. Being a perfectionist, I have gone over this vehicle completely and as hard as I've tried I cannot find anything to complain about. Have only had it for 10 days so still have a long way to go to determine what to expect in MPG. Impressed with quality! With an 80 mile round trip commute each day, hope it will last the test of time!
