2022 Subaru Outback

navigation

With my vehicle it was that the voice activation of the nav and search systems simply didn't work.

Unfortunately the infotainment screen is laggy and shuts off randomly shutting down everything except the engine,, safety systems, radio, gps, ac are all used through the laggy screen.

Infotainment can be a little touchy, wish nav used Google maps.

Electronics are consistently awful, from the (not really) voice-activated navigation to the slow, finicky touch-screen that controls nearly everything.

button is almost impossible to find&#47;use. The voice-activated navigation is unreliable - try entering a local address and the system responds "Would you like to navigate to the center of Lenox Iowa?"

Electronics are awful - voice navigation pretty much impossible to use; touch screen very slow to react; some

audio-system

The infotainment system can be a little confusing (mainly around profile management),

cons: HORRIBLE dash system, get RID OF the Screen!

I really do not understand all the reviews with hatred for the touch pad&#47;infotainment system, in fact for me it is a high point of the car!

failure

Subaru driver recognition works sometimes and in a repair order they say it’s designed to fail.

The electronics are annoying, faulty and poorly designed.

voice-command

transmission

The cvt transmission is awful, sucking the life out of the engine.

The Wilderness is quicker off the line, faster overall, with much smoother shifts from the revised transmission, with little body roll compromise when cornering at speed.

The CVT transmission is the worst ever - jumpy, jerky, and unable to match power requirements to transmission gearing.

function

Some useful functions are buried layers deep in the touch screen, which is slow-responding and washes out from reflected sunlight.

turn-handling

Try going around a corner using driver assist to get a idea of how a ping pong ball feels.

The best is cars turning Radius! Awesome.

Seat heater, can't turn it on from the screen, have to hit it, open another screen and then click again.

It rides incredible and handles beautifully too.

It gives you so much confidence as you enter the curves.

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,

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

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

The seats may very well be the most comfortable I've ever had in a car.

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

ride

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

Ride is great , gas mileage is 33mpg and Subaru reliability
 Really love this car and we feel so safe in it .

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.

However, I dare you to find another car that offers so much standard safety features.

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.

2022 Volkswagen Taos

The transmission shifts inconsistently causing either jerking of vehicle at low speeds or inadequate acceleration when needed to merge into traffic.

I would rate this vehicle at least 4 stars if the transmission did not make driving this vehicle Work and tiresome.

The DSG transmission is a very poor choice for this vehicle.

The transmission is a bit laggy from a start

but until the embarrassing 7-speed transmission gets addressed, I wouldn't recommend the Taos to someone.

The only negative comments I have is about the transmission.

but the uneven power delivery is a hazard and I would warn others to avoid the AWD version until a future time when VW either fixes this condition or uses a different transmission in the next version.

lights

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

I purchased this in January and at only 4000 miles has been to the dealer multiple times for stop start stalling, EPC code, check engine light and other electronic issues.

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

A vehicle has to perform the basic functions well or the vehicle has no purpose.

To the Taos' credit, it does handle mountain passes very well, I've driven over 3 of them in Colorado so far and the Taos has performed well in that aspect, you can feel the turbo kick in as you begin to climb and it's a satisfying feeling.

It has a very comfortable ride (a little on the firmer side) and it handles very well for a CUV.

Great fuel economy, handles like a sports car and plenty of room on the in the cabin.

The handling and increased gas mileage is superior.

The Taos is very light on it's feet, responsive, good turning radius and holds the road through corners very well, surprisingly well.

but gained AWD, way more passenger space for family and friends and a more comfortable riding position for when I feel like running about.

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.

The car is beautiful on the outside and such a smooth ride.

Acceleration is not bad, better in Sport mode, ride is good, and handling surprisingly nimble.

The soft touch makes resting the elbow more comfortable,

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

On our first road trip we averaged almost 42 MPG in great comfort and safety.

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

but nice, and the seats are super comfortable.

room

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

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

I'm 6'4, and I have ample leg and head room.

2022 Honda Insight

I enjoy all the infotainment screens regarding hybrid functions, and think Honda should continue building this excellent sedan.

Performance is good too because it uses the civic platform and handles great.

It feels solid, handles well, gas mileage is great.

mileage

I get excellent mpg,
around 55mpg so far.

The faster you go, the worse the mileage gets.

I have only driven a short time and find my mpg about 40, not 55 like the sticker indicates.

My goal was to get a car that would get me better gas mileage.

Comfortable ride and roomy with a large trunk.

The car is quick, and it rides very smoothly.

Overall, I like the appearance and ride of this vehicle.

We have not really had the car long enough for a good review.The car handles well and the ride is pretty smooth.We need to take it for a longer ride.There are plenty of features included with the ex model.The engine does get noisy when you stand on it

So far it rides smoothly and get good gas mileage.

fuel

I have driven several hybrids and found this car to be the most comfortable,
the most stylish, and the most fuel efficient sedan I tested.

Yes if you drive with a lead foot the gas engine can feel loud.

2022 Ford Maverick

Fords ordering system is the worst thing I have ever seen.

When I roll four passengers deep, everyone has plenty of space for ergonomically correct natural resting positions (they don't have to contort and twist to fit for the ride), decent audio from the base factory radio, a place for their small personal belongings in the convenient door pockets, convenient cupholders for beverages, plentiful and easily accessible ports for charging their phones and tablets, and - to top it off - in-vehicle WiFi (which has excellent bandwidth in my area - only &#36;25 a month through AT

The EV sound is annoying, since they forgot to add any insulation from the factory, it's loud.

The hybrid sound is too loud,
The horn makes more noise in the cabin than it does outside.

noise

The only issue so far is a clicking type rattle in my dash that only happens on certain slow bumps in my neighborhood, once I am on the highway it goes away. Strange.

My first impression during the test drive was that nearly everything about it seemed well-refined for the price point except for the engine noise.

The Panels all rattle
The dash rattles
The Gas engine is loud and unrefined
The Hybrid brake system was an after thought..

port

Ford needs to eliminate the small storage compartment on the right of the screen since it is useless and in my view eliminate the electrical outlet in the rear seating area to be replaced with an AC vent.

phone

The only thing you have to move eye focus to is the touch screen radio--unless you have your phone connected and can just use CarPlay to do everything.

brake

Like everything except the brakes, very touchy at the bottom of the pedal.

The safety features have kept me clear of several potentially dangerous situations, and I am mostly pleased with how the systems function together.

Handling is good, and the ride is very comfortable.

the vehicle handles like a small, has a comfortable driving position lots of options and nothing else out there looks like it!

It has plenty of pep and handles very well.

4 can ride nicely,back seat has just enough room.

the vehicle is fun to drive the ride is smooth and the build quality seems to be very good, no squeaks or rattles.

It rides great, accelerates just fine, and has more than adequate room for 4.

the truck rides great, it's very smooth and extremely quiet.

The ride is much better than my 2019 Civic.

Solid, roomy,  great performance,  nice smooth and quiet ride for a pickup.

Enough room for a 6'1" man at 260 to enjoy driving or riding in the Maverick.

The ride us much smoother and quieter than the Tacoma it has replaced and I'm using less than half the gas.

but when I sat in one at a local car show,  I realized my Maverick was much more roomier and comfortable than the full size Bronco.

Exceeds expectations: Beautiful design, perfect size, drives fantastic, comfortable on long trips, great visibilty, and its QUIET.

but big uses, no issues at 12k, very comfortable and drives great!

The seats are very comfortable even for the large and tall.

The interior is probably the most comfortable I've enjoyed in a utility vehicle to date.

It is actually very comfortable and the interior is very functional and I can park it in my garage.

but the dealer was able to take care of them  it delivers great MPG, of 45-50, around town, 32-34 on ths open road.

Overall happy with the performance and gas mileage (34mpg).

First edition carbonized gray
Mileage after 7 months of driving is 22 mpg.

It is so nice to get 40 plus mpg daily and run to the hardware store and pick up a load of mulch or haul bicycles and never.

So far, I am impressed with the little truck. Fuel economy is on par with what I was getting avg in my fusion (usually 40 - 43 mpg.)

The aerodynamics of the vehicle means you blow all over the place over 70mph
Highway MPG is less than the GTI i owned and that was way better built and more fun to drive.

It’s comfortable, easy to drive,  surprisingly peppy, and I am getting 43 MPG.

It gets amazing gas mileage,
Everyone looks at it..
Cons:
Build quality it appalling,
It’s useless on a highway, you’ll need miles to gain enough speed to pass someone.

Very impressed with the mileage, as about 60% was freeway driving, and I still averaged like 44mpg!

Went over 120 mph on the freeway, very sturdy! Ps.

2022 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF

The 181 HP is a definite upgrade from the 155 HP version I had in the 2018 model and overall, it is is smooth and quick in its function.

It’s the most fun to drive of any car I have owned and it definitely turns heads.

but even with that it is still the most fun I have ever had with a car.

2022 Subaru Forester

but it does cut down on any reflection from the dash to the windshield. All the switchgear work with ease and the function of the various buttons and knobs (so many of them !)

This car is comfortable, handles very nicely, the HK stereo is fantastic and the auto dimming side mirrors are amazing.

feature

I’ve never felt so safe in a car, not to mention all the safety features it comes with and the windshield views are amazing.

We opted for the Harmon Karden sound system package and the sound quality is incredible.

All the features are very convenient and ergonomic.

Ease and safety features on trip were amazing.

A little over $28K gets you a basketful of features plus AWD that you would have to pay extra for in most other cars.

Seems like I should have the option to set it up to automatically connect by bluetooth.

Lots of security features, some confusing.

Love the comfort, features and everything else about the Sport.

We are very proud of the look & comfort of the ride.

It gets great gas mileage and is super comfortable on quick trips around town and long road trips!

So far, here is my experience with the 2022 Subaru Forester Premium:

Pros
- Fantastic visibility 
- Spacious and high quality interior, back seat guests have commented on how comfortable and roomy it is
- Moonroof is a huge plus and makes the car feel like a big glass house (passengers have also commented on that)
- Easy, intuitive infotainment system with Apple Car Play
- Responsive performance and amazingly smooth ride (except some cold days, see above)
- Super cool updated exterior and beautiful color (I have Cascade Green Silica)

Cons
- Winter MPG (see above)
- Seats are a bit stiff, can be tough for long rides
- Standard sound system is underwhelming

Love this car because it is comfortable with plenty of room and stylish.

Mileage was so much appreciated at today costs.

IT ALSO HAS REDUCED EMISSIONS AND AND GETS GOOD GAS MILEAGE.

In the cold, driving performance and MPG are noticeably worse.

Wish Subaru would come out with a hybrid model for better gas mileage.

2022 Toyota Corolla Hatchback

speed

Cruise control is somewhat difficult to set as you have to scroll through settings, and it rarely keeps the exact speed it’s set at.

Radar cruise control will keep a certain distance away from the car in front of you, speed up or slow down depending on how fast the car is going, and assist keeping you in your lane.

heat/air-control

Auto climate control means I can just set the temperature and never have to worry about getting too hot or cold again.

cruise

I was very happily surprised, at all the standard features, both safety and function.

So many nice curves that make it fun to hand wash.

interior

however my issues with its excessive alerts, beeps, and fragile interior have outweighed how the vehicle performs.

Interior quality is quite surprising for a corolla.

The standard features on this SE model are really blowing me away compared to the other cars I've driven.

The color changes depending on the lighting and is always a pleasure to look at.

Economy is great and I have been having fun zipping around town in this little sporty hatchback.

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.

but they otherwise function well and look fine.

It handles great fun to drive, roomy and the added features are amazing the detail in mine is over the top!!!

It has all the new safety features and is very quick and handles nicely.

Fun to drive, speeds up quickly, turns tight on corners and curves, and looks really great interior/exterior-wise.

The ride is good, it handles very well has plenty of power for a 1.3 turbo and the appearance is sporty.

Love the size, the handling and the look.

It handles so well on the road as well as the snow.

I also like the handling, acceleration, and economy of the Trailblazer, though the suspension is slightly stiff,

It brakes and turns on a dime and has beautiful interior and exterior finishes.

Gas mileage is better then most cars out on the road.

Gas milage is good, and as someone wrote in an early 
review, the vehicle is deceivingly all around quick.

Mine has 35,000 miles and the fuel purge pump went out!

Bose speakers… lots of cargo space and still great on gas, especially with the prices.

Me and my girlfriend couldn't be happier with our car it's great on gas and has plenty of room for our soon to be family.

Great gas mileage and lots of get up and go! !

The fuel mileage is much better that shown with average 33 mpg in town.
