2022 Hyundai Kona N

engine

I have no idea how the N folks make a four cylinder sound this amazing,

golf

I used to daily a MK 7.5 GTI, and have been behind the wheel of some cool cars…including the current Camaro, several prominent German performance sedans and SUVs, a Golf R, a few Miatas, and others.

It is the most fun vehicle I have ever owned after owning a string of great vehicles starting with a then-new 1968 Z28 Camaro.

But as far as pure driving joy for the money goes, look no further.

exhaust

Even in eco mode the exhaust has some nice notes.

I personally like to have everything cranked to the max other than the suspension, which I leave in its lowest setting, and the exhaust, which I keep in sport rather than sport +,

2021 Kia K5

noise

And from the inflatable pillow in my seat something happened to that and I keep hearing a ticking noise in the back as if someone was kicking the backseat and it bumps a little bit towards the back.

I haven't experienced any of the nuances that others have pointed out, such as rattling and/or squeaking sounds.

It was all rattle and the engine made a lot of noise even when revving at 1500 rpm.

I'm a big fan of the turbo that Kia has put into all of the engines.

Turbo engine is awesome when you need power to get around big trucks on short stretches, and taking corners on winding roads is like dreaming.

many compliments and love the amber drl's engine is powerful for my needs and is very quiet.

You get so many gadgets, a great look, a smooth responsive ride, lots of storage (golf bag with a push cart fit easily), and a quick enough  acceleration with 30+ MPG.

feature

The car met all my needs, it’s smooth, has all the features that I need, big trunk, comfortable and has really surprisingly big leg room

Overall, as I rated it all 5 stars for the 6 features above, and it is definitely very well worth it, & I would highly recommend it to anyone who is considering buying a brand new Kia.

The Kia K5 is everything I wanted in a car it meets all of my needs and is so comfortable,it has so may options that have exceeded my expectations.

but my first Kia, decided on this when I saw their new K5 (formerly known as optima) when I test drove it I fell in love and this car has more features and more comfort as well as better looking over all than the competition

It has so many safety features that really sold me.

If you are looking for a new car that has all of the features, look no further than the K5!

It has lots of features, and I am sure there are some that I haven't figured out yet.

This car is so fun to drive and I love all the features!

comfortable

The seats in this base model were very comfortable.

What an awesome car, super comfortable, responsive, plenty of power and great mileage.

when I first test drove the K5 I was impressed right away, with the interior styling, ease of entry instrument cluster the seats are really comfortable.

Extremely smooth handling, comfortable ride.

the overall ride and how quiet it is has plenty of power and the interior is stylish and comfortable and it has plenty of cool tech

Reliable, comfortable  and very sporty for the GT line.

interior

I have been enjoying the sunroof and beautiful interior!

I wanted to get a car that looked good inside and out, was reliable and wasn't expensive.

I was totally impressed with the new line, both in its exterior structure and in the interior details.

2021 BMW X3 M

M40i engine and suspension make this a fun car to drive.

The engine is powerful with nice exhaust sound.

Ample room for vacation trips to take luggage and golf clubs.

Wife and I have always enjoyed performance vehicles and this X3 delivers the fun.

The panorama roof is very nice to have as it opens up the inside of the car and let’s so much better light in.

but this new X3M Competition has more interior space, better styling, and lightning performance.

room

2020 Subaru Outback

On the freeways i have to crank up the music to drown out road noise and the wistling from the sunroof.

To our disbelief 10 month after driving I heard a strange noise when shifting from low to higher gear.

Also there is some road noise around the front side windows.

Living in New England I've found moonroofs a waste of money (too noisy and hot to open up in the summer and totally useless the rest of the year).

The new platform feels more comfortable and cabin noise is less than before.

Huge difference in quietness on the highway 2020 much less noise.

lights

Turn signal, headlight, and wiper leavers and switches feel very cheap.

I like everything about this car except the lack of storage space inside the car and the rough engine stop and start at traffic lights.

And the engine on/off at stop lights feature has become annoying,

even though i don't have my high beams on -- very dangerous!

The engine start/stop feature at stop lights is nuts and will drive you crazy.

One annoying difference from prior years is the Auto Engine shut-off when stopped at a traffic light.

My other car is an 2018 Audi S5 Sportback and there are many things such as auto high beams and LED headlights that are similar to the Audi at $15 to $20 thousand less.

Purchased this 2020 Outback vehicle two weeks ago and am very impressed with everything so far with the exception of the auto engine stop - restart when I stop at a traffic light.

failure

The only negative is that the battery failed after just 3200 miles.

Immediately suspecting transmission we took the car to dealer and sure enough it was indeed transmission failure.

Where it falters (why 4 rather than 5) is in its electronics, sensors assistance that I find faulty, even annoying.

Now see from Torque magazine there are problems w/battery failure.

Calling Customer Service at MySubaru failed to produce any result.

pressure

it says some other stuff and then, "Noise is the high pressure pump for the transmission whis is normal sound."

A lighter pressure doesn’t shut off the engine.

The spare is mounted with the valve stem down, requiring the tire to be removed to check pressure.

battery

Evidently, it is either not charging, has a battery drain I can't find, or Subaru has a bunch of defective batteries.

Battery is inadequate to meet the electrical demands.

Subaru would have been MUCH better off keeping the six cylinder.

The 2.4L turbocharged engine is great and provides plenty of power when needed, and the car handles very well.

Wonderful design, responsive turbo engine, well matched cvt.

Love the car, great cargo space, comfortable, economical, good sound system, large screen in center of dash, navigation is cumbersome though and four cylinder is a little underpowered

Reviews have said base engine is underwhelming: I'm coming from a 8th gen Accord 4cyl 192hp which was fun to drive - Outback can't match that drive

Great gas mileage, great features, engine pickup is good.

Best by far, and the Dealership is wonderful at Baldwyn Motors in Covington, LA.

The engine is small so I don't get all the acceleration I want getting up to highway speed

It's very nice and comfortable, with a quietly smooth ride, and responsive turbocharged engine when needed!

I am an avid golfer and able to fit my clubs and others with no problem.

I see no car brand that can match it for just a good reliable performance and comfort.

The ride is refined, composed, comfortable and still very capable.

Seats are very comfortable with multiple adjustments in front.

Smooth intelligent ride and very comfortable.

but the rear seat backs are slightly adjustable when in the up position, which permits greater comfort for longer trips or different size/shape people.

Driver assist and safety features are well designed, work well and are appreciated.

Unknown in how tech features will hold up over time

I like the SUV version and it has all the features that I value.

Entertainment and connectivity options are great.

This computer controls all the safety features of the car, which is why i bought it in the first place.

It’s very sport looking, gets excellent gas mileage, very comfortable, and has a lot of safety features.

Comfort, ease of driving, safety features, style, functionality (the order of importance will change,

safety

I have always purchased Subaru vehicles for their safety, gas efficiency, and classy look.

But out of all the Subaru has been the best in performance, comfort, safety, handling, etc.

Eyesight Safety and Driver assistance system is excellent.

2020 Ford Explorer

The major complaint that I read on the Ford Explorer is that they claim that the shifting is not smooth or that the car is noisy.

It makes noises over an hour after I shut it off and get out of it. Crazy!!

Then it started making a metal rubbing noise apon acceleration,  and now it's giving me trouble in reverse.

There are a few sqeaks and the fit and finish of a $62K vehicle could be better.

Lots of cabin wind noise at 45mph and above.

Car makes strange noises after you shut it off for up to half hour later when you close any of the doors.

Grinding noise also at 5,000 miles, Replaced oil cooler.

The passenger door has developed a loud rattle that I can't seem to figure out.

but it is very noisy when accelerating then jumpy and shuddering in stop and go traffic.

The noise is loud and annoying while you drive.

windshield

Like dimming rear view mirror, dimming driver mirror, forward sensing, de-icer wipers, real leather seats (it’s now uncomfortable synthetic).

I was driving down the highway and a piece of the trim on my windshield flew off both sides are cracked they said my car is never been in an accident and I’ve never had the windshield replaced.

tire

Lifting the front for tire rotation requires two hydraulic jacks and pinch weld pucks because there is no crossmember reliable enough for lifting.

Cargo area floor above spare tire is flimsy and wouldn’t take any weight at all.

floor

Some thumping sound under the floor & what resembles a fuel pump noise before you start a car.

I do wish that there was a little more cargo room in the back and that the cup holders were not on the floor in the middle.

The moment I took this SUV off the lot I started having transmission issues, a very loud and present knocking came from the floor of the vehicle.

It has dumped the trans fluid 2 times and has had multiple transmission failures and irratic hard shifting.

.must have been malfunction with lane assist when I didn’t even have it on.

The 2.3 eco boost engine is plenty powerful and the gas mileage is exceptional.

The V6 engine and the towing capacity were a necessity that not very many manufacturers are building these days.

The twin turbo 4 cylinder exceeds all my expectations on performance.

This SUV is both stylish and rugged looking .The ECOBoost 4 cylinder is responsive with plenty of power.

It handles well, quite on the highways despite it's power and engine size.

New engine design and captains chairs are great additions.

Super comfortable with a speedy engine and great look!

I am not a techy “  We just want a rear wheel drive vehicle  with a 6 cyl engine the That has a  Moderate  towing  capacity(   SemperFidelis  )

Love the advanced features especially adaptive speed control.works well for my golf clubs.

I considered this a downgrade in comfort and luxury.

It is stylish and comfortable and gets great gas mileage.

Recently traded over of the 2017s for a 2020, what a difference, comfort, fuel economy, power/acceleration, 10 speed transmission, REAR WHEEL DRIVE now.

It’s comfortable, drives smooth and looks AMAZING. I’m extremely happy with my purchase :)

Most comfortable with everything at my fingertips.

This car is super comfortable and love all the features it has to offer!

It is powerful,  comfortable ,safe and reliable.

Still getting comfortable with all of the technology though.

Love the factory tow package, the heated seats, the heated steering wheel (you don’t know what you are missing if you have never had it), & the Apple car play is great for navigation using our IPhones .

Tow package, 4wheel drive, fuel economy, power seats, heated seats ,steering wheel and much more.

Still learning to use all the features it has .

Great features, love the Platinum edition.

It is a loaded up vehicle with about all the options you can get on an Explorer.

Was a great price And towing package was a plus too.

I enjoy the comfort, the speed, the control and all the extra options it offers.

Seat massage, leather interiors, heat/cool seats, plenty plugs for my grandkids electronics, heated steering wheel (would love to see the same feature with a cool setting for the steering wheel, that would be awsome), there are more features that I like,

I love the look inside and out and all the “bells & whistles” that came with this model.

My wife and I traded in our 2017 ford explorer for a new 2020 4x4 xlt its beautiful inside and out plenty of room comfortable and classy !

The big difference, the interior of the car.

The interior is spacious, comfortable, good climate control, so many new electronic features along with the safety features.

2020 Kia Soul

This has the good old set your temperature out of the vents and that’s what the cabin temperature will be.

Wasn't sure I would be a fan of the cvt transmission,but very smooth.Seats are comfortable than some bigger subs I set in.

.. first i'm not a fan of the elongated hood, the car is 3 inches lower than the 2015, the lane detection software only works 50% of the time,

The only thing that I can be critical of is that it seems to have a lot of road noise,

Here's why: The 147 HP 2.0 Litre engine is, let's be real, ho-hum.

The 2020 S model has a more powerful engine, sportier exterior, and quieter ride.

but in summary,  this is a great vehicle if you want a car that has a powerful engine, lots of safety features and looks unique.

The acceleration was better than expected with the standard 2.0L engine mounted to a 6-speed automatic transmission on the LX model.

It has more engine power than my last car and I am enjoying the color!

This suv handles very well and I don't baby it the 2 litre engine is all anyone would really need!!

It has great exceleration, The 1.6 liter engine with turbo is fast and the handling is great !

UVO was supposed to do it all including starting seat warmers, heated steering, lock and unlock doors, starting engine and more.

The 2020 was totally redesigned and gets better mileage ever with the bigger engine.

With the back seats up there is room behind them for my golf clubs and pull cart.

Toyota would be a better option, likely with more room.

It is a great car the trunk amazing and the space in the back is perfect for children .The drive is very smooth .

Car has a lot of leg and body room for my size.

Safety features, right size of the vehicle, cargo space, and right price.

Love the additional room and higher sitting position.

I am not a small man and it has plenty of room front and rear.

fuel

It's smooth and quiet and I didn't put gas in for two weeks.

Fuel economy is way better than my ole 1.6 L w/Manuel transmission, 29-30 city and 33-35 Hwy of course it all depends on your driving habits.

Note that the gas mileage (up to 33 MPG highway) is pretty impressive for a vehicle weighing 4,000 lbs.

I love my new car it is excellent its the perfect size I love all the cool features its excellent on gas I have no complaints I love it!

I appreciate the safety tech and I'm getting excellent gas mileage

The cars drives like a dream, has great safety features and the gas mileage is wonderful.

This car is exactly what I need I have back problems and it has very easy access in and out and plenty of comfort and legroom I really enjoy the car

The  back seats were just as comfy as the front ones.

The interior is comfortable and very entertaining to my grandchildren who sit in the spacious back seats.

SO FAR THIS KIA SOUL MEETS OUR NEEDS, COMFORTABLE, GOOD SIZE AND LOVE DRIVING IT.

The 60/40 split back seat is comfortable for 3 adults

This car has fantastic leg room, is comfortable and has great performance!

This little car is just as comfortable with many safety and tech upgrades.

Controls well laid out and easy-to-reach. Comfortable.

2020 Chevrolet Equinox

brake

This is absolutely the worst vehicle I have ever driven, the “front end collision prevention” should honestly be called the “rear end collision guarantee.” It will locked your brakes dead stop in the middle of an intersection.

but I knew that before signing papers and chevy covered it all also electric break module had to be replaced at the same time but my salesman came to my work on his day off and swapped my car out for a rental to get all of that fixed while I was at work.

In the first 500 mi was back to dealer 2 times for three different issues.Brakes squeal traveling in reverse(backing down driveway )dealer found broken brake pad on rear , said it looked like it was dropped at plant in Mexico and installed.

I already have grinding brakes, engine rattling, shifting issue, oil smell, and issues with the link to ApplePlay.

The car has so much power even with a small engine 1.5L I guess the turbo is doing it’s job.

I have a 2020 Premier with the redline package and 2.0 engine, I bought it in November 2019 and it now has 27,000 miles, no problems so far.

Unless you have a few extra grand for one step up engine!

Love the 4 cylinder Turbo engine, the seats are very comfortable and it is easy to get in and out.

Liked that this car’s motor and transmission were made in the USA and not China.I liked the color of this car all the safety features and censors were just what I was looking for.
