The roof rack and maybe the 4x4. The body style is nice
Least favorite feature:
Alot....the terrible jolt when accelerating onto a freeway or passing a car. The bumpy ride it has. Its amazing the small vanity mirror on the passenger side. Its almost like as if it belongs in a cosmetic case. Its got this cheap small magnetic flap
Advice to buyer:
Think twice if you think this car is big enough for trips. We had to leave this vehicle behind on a trip and rent a larger vehicle just for cargo space. There isnt much of that in this car behind the back seat.
Detailed review:
This is a nice car if you like a small SUV, but be ready for the not to wonderful ride it offers, and the 'rubberband' engine performance as I call it. My wife loves the car due to the fact it sits high, but also dislikes the ride. Another thing lacking is the lack of a chirp or low horn sound when using the remote lock. Makes you second guess if its locked or not
