2023 Mazda CX-50

audio-system

but clarity and sound not great at low volumes.

Terrible AC system that can't keep up with 80F weather!

Don't love the audio and that's about it.

Outdated navigation and interactive system.

acceleration

The turbo engine makes accelerating smooth, and before you know it, you are going 90, and it feels like 60.

Acceleration ok at best given engine size.

steering

Well put together at a plant shared with Toyota; responsive throttle, precise, heavy steering, practical interior layout with physical

engine

Turbo mounted in the back - behind a motor, makes future service a headache and it makes engine bay super hot.

speed

Very noisy at highway speeds with the 20" wheels/tires.

Even at high speeds, this little truck eats up the curves like a more expensive luxury vehicle.

fuel

Gas mileage (Measured by fill up) was 23.5 miles per gallon on a 360 mile round trip and the trip computer showed 27.6 mpg's Build quality seems okay

The fuel efficiency is not as advertised.

2022 Volkswagen Taos

lights

.the car violently Jerks sometimes when stop at the light when the ignition shuts off,the lane assist will randomly shut off.

Lately, while driving, the car will flash the check engine light when it's low on gas.

The stalling the engine does when you slow down makes it very dangerous because the car automatically wants to turn off when coming to a stop, the start/stop mode is supposed to help

but at low speed the acceleration can get very clunky, and bad enough to even jerk the vehicle around.

Power seats have a lot of room for adjustments and the steering wheel telescopes.

room

Sporty stylish exterior and technology-packed interior with loads of room and extremely comfortable seats.

I'm 6'6" and I fit quite comfortably inside, plenty of head, leg, and knee room!

Interior is extremely comfortable for 4, w/ lots of luggage space.

but, you should not need to push the seat back for basic foot room.

ride

The quiet and smooth ride of the Taos has been thoughtfully designed and engineered.

Nice balance between sportiness, efficiency, noise, & ride.

It's a very compact car, I find that the passenger seat ride is okay - I have a baby-seat in the rear that only allows for so much room in front-passenger seat

It’s a comfortable ride and easy to maneuver.

feature

The colors are brighter, the options better and mine has a huge sun roof.

Electrical/Technology: Related to Start/Stop and other safety features, the vehicle has some bugs that I'm hoping can be resolved.

The features are great: wireless Apple CarPlay, heated front seats, and an app to control the car through.

2022 Subaru Outback

It accelerates better due to the turbo engine and is more comfortable inside.

First off the brown leather interior is beautiful, second vented seats, heated steering wheel and what a sound system! We're seniors and this will probably be our last car, talk about going out on top ;)

safety

The luxury and safety of the Subaru is unmatched for the price.

you need all the safety stuff because your always looking down.

however, beyond comfort, the excellent ‘safety’ rating was impressive to each of us.

Great styling, safety features and lots of space for transporting gear or shopping items.

My 2022 Outback Touring with Java Brown Nappa interior is simply the best yet, with Eyesight Technology and all of the safety features, e.g., Lane Keeping, Adaptive Cruise Control & Blind Spot Monitoring etc.

Love the large screen and safety equipment.

comfortable

Very safe, comfortable and nice car to drive.

Altho the cloth seats could be more comfortable, love everything else except the car shutting off at stops.

The vehicle was highly rated and is very comfortable,

This is the nicest riding most comfortable car I have ever owned.

There are some positives: the seats are very comfortable and the ride is good.

interior

The grey, twede, cloth interior is beautiful.

Love the Java brown interior .Chevy buyer the last 20 yrs.

pros: Smooth ride, pretty quiet interior, nice seats, sound system is good.

The vehicle looks great on the exterior and the interior design was exceptional, including the large display screen which is extremely easy to use and quite intuitive.

2022 Toyota Highlander

There is just not a comfortable position for your left elbow with your left hand on the steering wheel.

Manual steering wheel tilt
The map doesn't utilize the full 12.3 wide screen
Function

The heated steering wheel, also in this model, is mediocre at best as it does not heat the back side of the steering wheel and over heats the front.

but it has auto start, heated steering wheel, heated and cooled front seats and heated rear seats, panoramic Sun roof, large screen with JBL speakers and Apple car play.

large-size

I really think Toyota should either make the arm rest in the door bigger or put an actual armrest on the side of the driver’s seat.

noise

Mileage is not what I expected and the noise on the highway is just flat unbearable.

The hybrid version is powerful enough just a bit noisy when starting off and going up an incline.

It feels more solid, less road noise and has all the bells and whistles.

After 30 miles I have a headache from the noise and hard to walk from the cheap seats.

wheel

Acceleration is more than adequate and switching to SPORT mode provides extra kick.

Excellent quality, adequate tech, good economy, drives very quiet and smooth, very comfortable seating, vary comfortable second row captain’s style seating, extra large cargo capacity with third row seating folded down.

The seats are massive, so super comfortable.

I think the design is a good balance of functionality and comfort.

It’s comfy and drives amazing and roomy and sporty and not a typical mom car as my husband doesn’t mind driving it either ! !

The front seats are comfortable and in this model they are heated and ventilated.

You can always find a comfortable position with these seats.

The idea of a self driving car strikes me as laughable when they can’t get this feature to work very well.

A few other options that could have been included with that price point and several options that came with it I will never use!

The panoramic sunroof is awesome as is the stereo on the platinum pkg.

Minor issues that I will gladly live with in order to get all of the other features that I like so much.

It has all the features my previous one didn’t have that I wanted and the price was reasonable compared to what new SUV’s are going for theses days.

All the other features on the XLE are driver programmable and makes customizing the car to your requirements/preferences.

I like how much space there is in the trunk, could fit a ton!

Plenty of space to haul stuff and people.

Lots of cargo space when 3rd row seats are folded down.

More than ample cargo space, especially when second and third row seats are down.

There is plenty of room in the second row seats, haven’t needed to use the third row seats so plenty of cargo room.

2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Plug-In Hybrid

The electric motor offers much acceleration in the last couple months and the highway mileage on the road trips is 2-3 MPG better than when the car was new.

The steering is easy to get used to, and has a tight turning turning radius.

Wonderful vehicle - smooth, quiet and comfortable.

heat/air-control

Santa Fe, has remote start on key, as well as Hyundai Bluelink, which starts vehicle with Climate Control.

2022 Kia EV6

Acceleration is instantaneous and very potent.

The regen system is adjusted by the steering wheel toggles and has four setting, I believe.

I was pleasantly surprised to see just how quickly it would get up to speed on the Highway, and it is comfortable cruising local roads.

The fit and finish, comfort, and performance of our roomy 2022 KIA EV6 have been terrific.

Car is comfortable, with plenty of room for rear passengers.

turn-handling

It takes bumps well, corners comfortably, and is quiet, with little road noise.

This vehicle has all of the torque and handling of the Tesla, with all of the amenities of a luxury car.

but still with enough stiffness that you can drive hard and push through curves and corners extemely well.

Nice to not have to worry about the price of gas.

It has the interior quality of an Audi, the performance of a V8 hemi challenger, and the fuel efficiency of a Prius.

2022 Mazda CX-5

Engine wise, this vehicle has adequate acceleration.

Headlights are very bright and adaptive with steering, I love the bulls audio speaker system.

The maintenance and repair costs are more for those engines.

Engine has more engine noise than the 2.0 engine.

Mazda has greatly improved this model in recent years with a better, quieter ride, more comfortable seating and better performance.

Decent ride and performance for a 4 cyl, compact SUV.

service

Everyone at Empire Mazda in Huntington was wonderful from start to finish. AZ & Mike Farina were both very helpful and patient - 10 stars for service :)

Always followed up with me, great customer service and the best choice for me

2022 BMW iX

- Acceleration and handling are good, pretty much what you would expect from BMW.

- Steering wheel is poor - hexagonal shape, it looks ugly, and it feels weird.

but it feels like a proper luxury car with excellent interior and materials, it is about the same size as iX and has more features, at a lower price.

screen

The technology is great (you don’t need a key to do anything with the car - only your phone and it has a great digital key too) and the computer screen dash.

Even Tesla feels a lot better in comparison:-(

- Dashboard looks like a home-made DIY project when somebody mounted a couple of flat screens on the top of the front panel, without even hiding mounting brackets.

516HP is incredible, it is roomy and comfortable.

The car is much bigger inside than one would expect and comfort is excellent.

2021 Nissan Rogue

radio

Monitor not working, no radio, gps iPhone connect charging backup cameras, weird noise, flashing Nissan logo, it’s been 2 months, they cannot find the part anywhere!

Enjoy heads up display, adaptive cruise, better acceleration, upscale interior, well designed infotainment system.

I have to say this has much more responsive acceleration off the line than my Murano had

The heated seats and steering wheel are so nice.

Love the heated seats and steering wheel.

Has all the bells and whistles I wanted in a car in Northeast Wisconsin - can't beat the heated seats and steering wheel!

I like the keyless entry, the stylish exterior, and its roomy and comfortable.

Meets our needs comfortable  stylish love the interior and the ride is super cool.

OMG, they are so comfortable and the back seats are a little bit higher and I love that too.

All the "bells and whistles" needed to enjoy a comfortable ride from here to there.

Very quiet and comfortable and I get about 33 MPG commuting to the office and back.

Economical so far and very comfortable seating as well as driving.

All the features and comfort makes driving a pleasure.

We like the looks and all the features that the Rogue provides.

I love all the technology and convenient features.

though the features and look of the car is great, I noticed little glitches from day one.

I have to say that the 2021 Rogue SL, with the premium package is my best leased Nissan yet.

- Stop hold feature: I love the idea, as I have knee problems and it releases tension in my right knee,

Very good , well thought out features and roomier that previous models.

Plus all the other great features the Rogue has.

It full film my requirements and features that I need to drive safe and comfort , on the road make me happy an like it

She especially enjoys the sun roof which is a very nice feature on the car.

The interior and exterior design is superb.

Love the panoramic sunroof and the quality of the interior.

Love the exterior and most of all the interior!

The exterior is beautiful and the interior is so luxurious without the luxurious price tag.

Rogue with Platinum trim (top of the line) is beautiful inside and out.

2021 Toyota Venza

Other than that the interior started squeaking after less than 3 months and 3k miles.

phone

By the way, the only place you can put your phone without obstructing the view or screen is the vent left to the steering wheel, which is not that comfortable.

If you can operate a smartphone the Venza will not be a problem.

navigation

The GPS is absolutely a junk compare to Google Maps, would route you to wrong places, taking detours, etc.

Poor POI, tricky routing compared to smartphone, and sometimes hazardous paths: it led me to an UNBUILT ramp in Corpus Christi on 65mph which could be fatal if I was driving at nighttime and trusted the navigation.

The voice activated navigation is problematic at times.

The touch screen for the map does not appear on the entire 12” screen like in world like for it to.

touchscreen

The big touch screen are hard to navigate.

port

The only thing I’d like more in the interior is a little more room where the wireless charging is.

They recommended a trickle charger and to limit multiple short trips (less than two miles) as the starter battery apparently drains 25% of its capacity every time you start the car and you need to drive it farther than two miles to regenerate. Frustrating.

The acceleration is better than the NX and maybe even better than the RX 450h and the gas mileage is so much better.

Drives like a dream - and has excellent acceleration.

We love the heated seats and steering wheel.

Active lane steering with cruise on is long all the great.

The car has everything heated steering wheel, seats, ventilated seats, all the safety option (has a 5 safety rating), looks a lot like its cousin Lexus

So quiet, inside and out, the interior is plush, and comfy.

It fits me and I find it very comfortable.

The interior design feels and looks upscale and it is extremely comfortable and quiet.

Very comfortable for long trips, which was our principal need.

The ride and smooth and quiet and the interior is very comfortable and well laid out.

The Venza is quick sporty comfortable and a joy to drive

Good visibility, lots of room, comfortable, gas mileage okay

Very comfortable entry for keeping body posture always fit&  also when out of the vehicle

Good exterior styling- looks like an expensive high end SUV
Quiet engines, premium features such as stop hold, heated seats (select models), big screens (select models), kick trunk open, parking sensors, climate control.

I bought the LE trim has physical controls not all the great features of the limited

I look forward to discovering all other features!

I got a Limited with the the digital mirror and all the safety features I wanted (which were just about all).

Loaded with great technology and safety features.

Loaded with safety features, cameras, NAV.

Comfortable seats, nice tech features, AWD that you can even feel that it works like it should in poor road conditions.

- Latest technology
-Stargaze moonroof is a really clever and unique feature that everybody compliments.

It's beautiful with mega technology and features for the price.

The MPG was affected greatly by the ambient temperature as the gas engine kicked in to charge the battery more frequently on a cold day.

This car definitely looks great on paper-
Great MPG- saves you ton of gas money!

I have had no problems with the gas tank-again phony reviews.

The gas mileage is fantastic - always over 40 unless my lead foot steps in.

I find the size of this vehicle to fit my needs and look forward to driving it for many years providing excellent gas mileage.

This is car is extremely reliable and a money saver on gas.
