2023 Kia Seltos

engine

With the turbo motor it has very good acceleration and decent gas mileage.

The engine puts out plenty of HP and torque to make the car responsive and it's quick which is very important when merging onto highways or general overtaking.

compact

The transmission is also surprisingly smooth in heavy traffic considering that it's a DCT. Overall, I'm a big fan of this compact SUV(?)

comfortable

I have a spinal injury and I find the seats and suspension to be very comfortable even over longer drives, and when you use the driver assist features even longer trips aren't as tiring.

feature

interior

It has a LOT of room on the inside, never would have figured on that just by looking at the outside.

As far as exterior and interior styling, I'm very pleased with the quality of the interior as well as the great touch points and an overall ergonomic design.

2022 Mazda CX-5

The maintenance and repair costs are more for those engines.

Engine has more engine noise than the 2.0 engine.

Although I haven't had it for a long time yet, I can feel this compact suv is built well and runs smoothly.

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

ride

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

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

mileage

Otherwise I do really like the car and the fuel mileage is better than what I used to get in my Rogue.

The turbo is a bit thirsty and I only get 19 to 20mpg in the city and 22 struggling on the highway, It’s time for Mazda to be able to get better mileage with a modern turbo like other manufacturers, end of the day go for it it’s a great SUV!

2022 Hyundai Tucson

noise

I have gone through 2 windshields due to rock chips cracking(hopefully just bad luck)

3 weeks since they "fixed" my car, it  has cutoff on me 3 times and has a hard knocking noise.

There is this little noise coming from somewhere around the passenger side panoramic sun roof when starting forward or reverse and it sounds like something sliding back and forth in a metal channel.

windshield

The materials in the cabin feel first rate, from the ridged volume and signal and wiper

sporty

but it was never meant to be a sports car.

brake

After vigorously stepping on the brake it started.

The auto hold feature, which allows the car to brake itself after stop without holding the brake pedal, was one I didn't think I would use.

panoramic

The panorama roof makes for a low ceiling

I have had knobs that are confusing like my Mercedes cursor and engine control knobs next to each other.

You’ll not find more car for the money anywhere stop looking if you want the best compact SUV out there, and head to the Hyundai dealership.

Ride comfort is very good, even with the 19” rims.

I believe that this Tucson has more tech, comfort and luxury than comparable cars costing 50% more.

Amazing gas mileage, comfortable ride, amazing new design.

Looks great and very comfortable front and rear seats.

A very modern design that is comfortable roomy and full of technology I am very satisfied and please that I purchased this vehicle.

It has so much comfort, style and latest technology.

The interior looks great and feels comfortable.

This is my third Tucson and each generation keeps getting better. The exterior styling and interior comfort is exceptional; and the "Limited" trim has all the "bells & whistles."

overall I am extremely happy with my Tuscon, great gas mileage even around town, 30mpg.

Gas mileage is better than expected, my daily (mostly highway) commute averages around 28-29 mpg at 80-85 MPH.

It has lots of pep and I get anywhere from 32 mpg, all the way up to 41mpg.

Gas mileage has gone up with every tank of gas and the car is very smoth on the highway!

I love many of the features and the gas milage is good.

Great gas millage and lots of bells and whistles.

of more concern, the audio affects all of the safety feature warnings.

Outstanding, loaded with great options, reliability record and can’t beat Hyundai warranty!

Many of the features have been great to use.

I love a lot of the features in this model.

A good idea in theory, BUT, this creates a dangerous issue if you are driving on a dark country road or on a main divided highway and your vision to the side is partially obscured by this feature.

button geari changes, but it seems to work
 it has a host of safety features that seem to work well .

Personal opinion here is the fact that this car has virtually everything option wise

This vehicle has more features than any other vehicle I have owned.

This is a great car for a great price if you’re looking for a vehicle that’s surely to be “Best in Class” and full of features I highly recommend the 2022 Hyundai Tucson.

2022 Kia Forte

Car has outstanding pick up for a 147hp engine.

fuel

The 2022 Kia Forte LXS offers very nice styling and design, a good set of convenient features and technology, excellent fuel economy, and decent power, handling and performance.

One of a kind car with great performance and fuel economy.

super comfortable, very fuel efficient good value for the price.reliable, comfortable a very good car for commute 100% Recommended,value for your money GT Line. 22

Great car, great gas mileage, sporty look and interior, all in all its been great so far and the gas mileage really helps out the price

Overall I would recommend this car to anyone seeking something fun to drive that is both sporty and also economical at the same time.

It's the GT line, so it has a definite sporty look.

power

but I will forgive the power for the reliability.)

Looks & drives good adequate power and smooth ride.

2021 Subaru Crosstrek

Four cylinder engine is more than sufficient for excellent acceleration and superior MPG.

My car is very comfortable and has suprising amount of power for a 4 cylinder.

Plenty of leg room and engine has plenty of power.

I got the 2.0L engine, and I feel the power is enough since I'm not looking for a race car.

I'm glad I purchased the Sport for the 2.5 motor.

With the new 2.5 L engine and the Subaru Cross Trek  Sport.

This is the lowest model with a 2.5 liter engine, which is very smooth and delivers a good amount of power.

With the 2.5 engine, it performs very well.

Lots of fun to drive with the new bigger engine have plenty of power.

The Crosstrek Sport edition with the 2.5 liter engine is great.

So far, extremely pleased with this compact SUV.

Roomier than most similar compact cars and crossovers.

but still be comfortable and have something more fun to drive.

It’s very comfortable, and easy to drive.

It is comfortable on long trips as well as staying local.

Comfortable driving and reliable safety system.

I am 6'3" and find it ample in space and comfort.

If hindsight was 20/20, I would pay for the option and I would highly recommend you do the same if your thinking of purchasing the Crosstrek.

There are some differences that I like such as the added eyesight features (adaptive cruise control, lane assist, etc.

We love the smart-driving options, especially the lane deviation beeper!

This car is everything I was looking for,style,features, especially safety features, comfort for seating, legroom, roof racks for my kayak, beautiful to drive and so smooth, excellent gas mileage

but driving fun, economy and size more than makes for it.

Would and will be buying another on for our other son and now for my wife as she is have lots of fun with it.

This car is fantastic, overall I enjoy the ride, how it handles, and such.

2021 Kia Seltos

Road noise is very noticeable and having a conversation with a passenger can be a bit difficult.

This even after Techs from two different dealerships test drove and declared 1) "That is not right" (when he felt the vibration) and 2) described in his report to KIA as "Excessive Steering vibration".

speed

Things I don’t like, only 2 proper cup holders, the front windshield wipers the lowest speed is too fast so if it’s drizzling out you have to keep turning the wipers on then turn them off.

The only true Con I have for this vehicle is the stiff jolt the vehicle occupants get when going over deep potholes and particularly bad speed bumps.

sensor

The only drawback I can truly say is the front collision sensor doesn't work too well when driving in heavy snow or slush.

The 1.6 turbo engine is very responsive and gets great gas mileage.

SMALL ENGINE BUT REALLY COMFORTABLE INSIDE, LOOKS LIKE A SMALL VERSION OF THE RANGE ROVER.

the 2.0 engine is exceptionally quiet when first started and both the engine and IVT is a perfect combo with very good 30 MPG in mixed driving.

In SX turbo, the engine is quiet, responsive and ready to go.

is amazing and on the highway you don't even feel like the engine is on as it is ultra quiet and the ride is like you are driving on glass smooth  as silk.

Space is just right & the motor is sweet!

Great vehicle, no complaint, best warranty out there,good performance, nice features, safety ,compact color selection  are nice,interior nice features, exterior is great,handed great,  great on gas. .100%recommended

The styling is very good looking, Its a great driving sub compact that doesn't feel like one.

Nice compact car that comes with som many features that I’m still learning the car.

Other than those, I would recommend this car to anyone who is looking for a small SUV with power, comfort and safety.

AWD standard in the lower model plenty of visibility and confortable on long drives .

I love this car it is comfortable and roomy.

but, I'm 6'3 300 lbs and I fit in this Seltos LX comfortable.

It is comfortable, affordable, and drives very smooth.

but felt the new styling and mileage made up for those comforts but als picked up some new features such as the automatic cruise control,auto headlights and remote start.So far very impressed with the new Seltos

Also, because of the safety features, my insurance drop like a stone!! !

Very numerous safety features will actuallly help me become a better driver.

but Kia has a lot of videos to explain all the features.

It has all the safety features and amenities I wanted and needed.

but not too big, tons of safety features and I love the look of it.

Lots of safety features, great fuel economy, and value.

But that aside; this car has excellent responsiveness to driver demands, a very intuitive driver assistance package, a great sound system, comfortable seating all seating positions, great gas mileage (even in the thirsty Sport mode), and last

FOR THE PRICE & ALL OF THE OPTIONS ON IT & THE ROOM IN IT, IT WAS AN EXCELLENT BUY FOR THE PRICE OF IT .

room

Plenty of legroom for a small CUV good power in the non turbo version and alot of cargo room for a small vehicle .

Car all and beyond very reliable transportation and most of all space room to travel shopping sports gear with the children games and there team

but this is a game changer so easy to handle and the space is wonderful this definitely changed my mind

Perfect for traveling with my family and has plenty of room for all of my grandbabies stuff.

Plenty of upfront room for me which was hard to find coming from a roomy 09 Pilot!

I'm Surprise it has allot of Leg Space as for general it's not the biggest Interior space

Excellent car has plenty of room very nicely designed.

2021 Mazda CX-5

touchscreen

The only drawback is no touchscreen once i got used to it - don’t even notice now and the way the design is in my signature turbo you don’t need to divert your eyes from the road - everything easy to use sleek and uncomplicated.

Only issues I have is the home screen- it's not a touch screen?

I don't mind not having a touch screen infotainment center since it would require leaning forward to touch it while the controls on the center console can be easily found with the hand without looking.

roof

The size of the sunroof was incredibly disappointing.

My only wish is that the sunroof extended farther back and was electric.

tire

Never sure if it's just cold or actually a low tire, have to always check it to be safe.

The only disappointment so far is the Yokohama Geolander tires that are not well rated.

The code was CA126, engine not reaching temperature.

Drives smooth, great pickup for the engine size, crisp interior, stylish exterior.

Love the CX5, and now with the Turbo engine, it definitely has the Zoom-Zoom factor.

Thinking that my old BMW could have potential engine problems, I traded it for the CX-5 signature thinking that is was a good choice and great value for all the features.

The new turbo engine give the car some added pep.

The non-turbo engine is surprisingly peppy and punchy, especially when used with the manual / paddle shifters in Sport mode.

We went with the Touring w/ the Premium package which has nearly all of the most important features of the higher models - other than the turbo engine.

The engine has more zip and is noticeably smoother.

This compact SUV so far is great, I have had it for 4 weeks.

For the 2nd time in 10 months I have found a CX-5 GT Premium Pkg sold as "Certified pre-owned" with very low miles and a better-than-new warranty.

Not only is it stylish and fun to drive, it's safety ratings,  exterior and interior features give me a feeling of confidence.

Had the car for 4 days and so far, it has exceeded our expectations.so many safety features and entertainment options.

My 2019 and 2021 CX-5s have the all-around safety features.

This vehicle is equipped with so many features.

It has plenty of fun entertainment features to make me happy without overwhelming me with too much on my dash at once.

There are so many safety features and it has higher ground clearance than my Honda CRV.

It’s got every feature you need and a few you never thought of.

Gas mileage is exceeding expectations now and the high tech features are fun and useful!

Bought the CX-5 Grand Touring with Premium Package and it has all the bells and whistles that I was looking for.

Comparable in style, ride and comfort we were both shocked .

The ride is comfortable, stable, and QUIET.

I bought the Signature trim which has the Napa leather interior, very comfortable and I love driving it.

It’s also easy to drive and comfortable.

The CX-5s are comfortable, stylish inside and out, powerful when you need it, reliable, great on gas mileage, easy to handle.

It's stylish and comfortable with plenty of room.

It looks like it could handle any road conditions  without sacrificing a safe and  comfortable  ride.

the bells and whistles are fun and handy GPS and road noise better than my C class Mercedes.

It’s fun to drive and I’m hoping it has great reliability as the reviews say.

They have refined the screen, tweak the transmission to where it’s really a joy to drive now.

It is fun to drive and has good pickup for highway driving

2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer

but for me it is fine a little noisy but great.

On good roads it is quiet and drives smoothly, there is some Road noise over rough roads,

warranty

Not covered under warranty or extended warranty 😡 cost me 525.00 to fix.

Dealership tells me its in my head about trans ummm ok. and stripping isn't covered under warranty ans pushes it back in.

leather

The only things I noticed it doesn't have is leather seats and a heated steering wheel, which none of the packages offer.

Surprisingly fun to drive for such a small engine - both in town and on the highway.

Car has everything we need , Great styling, for a 3 cylinder very pepping,
totally surprised.

It has a turbo engine so it accelerates quickly, it has great safety features, an amazing sound system and screen display, it is sleek and has the perfect room in the front (back is fairly roomy

Snappy engine, great handling, nice ride and beat all the competitors (CR-V, HR-V, Rav4, Tuscon, Santa Fe, CX-5) hands down.

I like the styling and the engine - transmission combination.

The little 3cyl engine is surprising peppy for it's size and the gas mileage is also pretty good.

Finally Chevy gives me an AWD with all the tech I want, smooth quiet strong motor (Better than the fiat and soul)  and for less money than the fiat and not that much more than the 2wd soul.

I am very impressed with the engine and its smoothness and quiet response.

I researched many compact SUVs, it is actually a great value at an affordable price!

Comfortable roomy just a great bang for your buck.

comfortable ride and good value of the price that we paid

but this TrailBlazer Activ is already the best, most comfortable, sharpest car I've ever owned.
