2022 Kia Forte

reliable

So far, knock on wood, the Forte has been perfectly reliable.

large-size

I can fit two large and one smal suitcase inside it.

The Kia is every bit as quiet as the bigger car, in spite of auto mag reports.

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.

Again, great gas mileage will cover a lot of deficiencies.

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

sporty

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

but it is smooth and will pick up nicely when you put it in Sport Mode.

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

Looks nice, preforms, over all recommend, i like the red trim, GT-line is the way to go, real sports car feel.

turn-handling

but the Kia makes up for it with sportier handling.

2022 Honda Civic

noise

I doubt the dashboard rattle will be fixed with a recall.

Now I can hear annoying rattling sound almost from every parts of the dashboard, which is driving me crazy.

Noise issues on highway or rough roadways, the 2022 is a bit quieter then the 2010

rear-view

Mazda3&#47;CX30 (big rear blind spot at rear of vehicle; infotainment screen too narrow and no touch screen), Hyundai Elantra (cheap plastic behind seats; rear view camera guidelines misleading), Hyundai Kona (abundance of cheap plastics), Toyota Corolla sedan&#38;hatchback (grille too big with ugly "angry look"; hatchback has "fake" exhaust pipe decorations and no spare tire; blind spot monitoring has no sound alert; seems like driving a cheap learner's vehicle), Toyota RAV4 (robotic look not my liking), Nissan Kicks (blind spot monitoring is not as responsive; everything looks cheap).

buttons illuminate indicating what the button is actually for- it just shows if it has been selected or not, there is no drop down divider&#47;cup holder in middle of back seat, rear-view mirror seems a bit small, and brake assist takes some time to get use to.

tire

Handles terrible during winter, highly recommend getting snow tires.

My one complaint is the defrost of the rear and side mirrors.

Cons: 
only 1 usb port in car, none of the features (defrost or ac)

audio-system

The lane departure system makes the steering feel forced if you go against it,

No real calling issue for me at least for calls on Android auto or Bluetooth as long as the other caller is not on speaker or Bluetooth as well, then its sometimes hard to hear.

Feels nothing like the 28 others cars I’ve had. Reliable!

but love how cheap gas is and reliable it is.

It’s a larger sedan compared to my 2019 altima and a comfier drive.

My honda civic hatchback sport is very stylish and youthful..The rear hatchback with the seats folded down makes a very large and useful cargo area to haul around stuff.The gas mileage is excellent.Love the led headlights and taillights which are standard.Apple carplay and Android auto standard too.I love the color which us sonic gray pearl.

Seats all 5 comfortably (even being large teenagers in backseats and driver being 6'2").

interior

I keep the car as clean as possible as well, and it’s impossible to keep it brand new, with the black interior seatings.

Interior looks amazing, seats are comfortable, and car handles like a dream.

I bought my car September 1st, 2021 and feel in love with the design of both interior and exterior.

Like the styling overall inside and out, Bose stereo sounds good
and great milage

I at least really like the look of this car the outside and interior, I don't mind the screen (thought I would more)

The interior design looks flat like a box, and the seats are not comfortable on long road trips.

The interior is almost Audi&#47;Mercedes like in fit and finish and quality and the materials are much better than the Mustang I previously had.

Super smooth ride, great handling, excellent sound system and very good gas mileage.

: Civic Honda 2022 LX
Pros: 
inexpensive, great handling, good gas mileage, and comfortable to drive.

I convinced my older sister to get a 2022 Black Sport model and she loves it.

Thank you Elvis Opoku, for making my car buying experience exceptional for my daughter first car purchase, her dream car a 2022 Honda Civic Sport Sonic Blue.

The Honda Civic sport touring hatchback is an outstanding car .

I wish there were power seat adjusters for the EX-trim, and they offered the sporty look with the higher engine.

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.

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.

Verdict: 
It's built worse than a Jeep Wranger, and no where near as fun to own.. 
Do yourself a favor, if you want a reliable hybrid, buy a prius.

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

It really feels like a much larger truck than it is.

My 2022 Ford Maverick XL AWD with tow Package
Powerful and proven 2.0 turbo charged motor mor torque than a Toyota Tacoma
Comfortable to drive and sit in on long trips, plenty of large widows for a good view of traffic.

ride

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

Handling is good, and the ride is very comfortable.

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.

comfortable

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.

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

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

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.

mileage

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 Hyundai Tucson

Also, the gloss black is not a finger print problem any more than your phone or ipad. I can say more

Occasionally won't connect to iPhone (but fixes itself the next time the car is restarted). 4.

Doesn’t remember what you use for phone or Bluetooth device if multiple devices are used.

Also on the base hybrid- heated seats, heated mirrors, all the safefy&#47;driving features, easy phone connectivity, power driver seat, 4 driving modes, low speed 4WD lock, automatic high beams that work great, tows small trailers with high MPG, 6 speed auto with paddle shifters.

Haven't been able to get Android Auto to work more than once, and dealer wasn't helpful in figuring out the issue.

From what I read the only real negatives should be the upgraded 10.25 touchscreen info system which will not have wireless apple Carplay&#47;Android Auto.

radio

While not having the radio, it affected Bluetooth, Siri etc.

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.

People complain about the piano black trim around the center (radio and HVAC controls)
I keep a microfiber in the center console, takes literally 30 seconds to wipe off any fingerprint smudges or dust.

Wish there were a spare tire and normal control knob for the radio.

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.

Also, the noises and beeps that the car makes are overwhelming.

At higher speeds it has more wind noise towards the rear

windshield

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

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.

In summary, if this vehicle stays as reliable and enjoyable in years to come, Hyundai has won a new fan! !

However I tend to keep my cars for over 15 years so it has to be reliable .

The Tucson model is a delight to drive with a large array of easy-to-use technology.

The cabin in the Tuscon is larger than the rav 4 and that's why i made my choice.

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.

but this is the most comfortable car we've ever had.

Amazing gas mileage, comfortable ride, amazing new design.

Very comfortable, quiet, powerful and extremely attractive.

my family loves the styling , ride and comfort

Did a bit of customization and it's a great all year type ride

The touch screen, the digital dials and the quiet ride remind me of a Mercedes in a South Korean skin, with a much lower price.

The ride it great, very smooth on these horrible Louisiana roads.

feature

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

The safety features standard on the Limited are numerous and cost a extra on a lot of SUVs, even more expensive ones.

I use this feature when there’s a lot of rain as it gives me extra confidence against possible skidding.

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

The warranties are amazing as are the safety features and Hyundai's after sales support.

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 .

Car drives nice and smooth, I just haven’t gotten 25 mpg yet, lots of very cool options

2022 Toyota RAV4

But if you are coming from a luxury car to Rav4 Hybrid, then you are like me to find more cabin noise, less classy things inside

I read some complaints about interior noise.

paint

The only minor complaint I have at this time is I have a few rock chips already so I question the paint quality&#47;thickness.

The RAV4 is the most reliable car I've ever had

It suits its purpose as a commuter rig due to high gas prices and it will hopefully be reliable since it is a Toyota.

One of the most reliable and popular sedans that is sold today, still.

It's comfy, nice leather heated&#47;cooling leather seats.

I would highly recommend this car to anyone who enjoys a comfortable, pleasant, economical driving experience combined with Toyota's proven reliability and dependability.

Pros: 
Handles well 
Good Sound Quality 
Multiple ports for charging
Comfortable Seats 
Good Storage Capacity

Cons:
Has zero power especially when navigating an incline.

Nice driving car and comfortable inside with all the bells and whistles.

We are very happy with the performance, style, and comfort ability.

The fronts seats are very comfortable in my opinion for the Adventure Trim I have.

but then my arms will probably be extended too far to be comfortable.

Super comfortable--and the mileage can't be beat.

I wished to get affordable car and I got amazing SUV in my RAV4 despite is not Hybrid , mpg is ok .

The car performed beautifully and throughout the trip we got 31-32
mpg&#47;city and 34 mpg&#47;Hwy.

The 4 cylinder gets awesome gas mileage !

I have gotten 37  mpg on long distance driving with perfect conditions.

We traded it for the Prime we have no regrets at all, on a bad day this car gets 60ish MPG's around town on a full charge 75 .

I could not be happier with the fuel mileage.

Responsive steering, different driving modes to choose from on this SE and the mileage. Amazing!

room

We love that the RAV4 LE has more ground clearance and head room than our Taurus.

It's as if you're in your living room enjoying quality music while driving.

The cargo space is sufficient and the controls are easy to use.

It feels great, it fits tall people well (I am 6'0") and I have PLENTY of room!

2022 Kia Sorento Plug-In Hybrid

I used to have a 2012 Kia Soul that I also really enjoyed and wanted another Kia because they're so reliable!

but bigger, there are so many out there, but I wanted to stick with Kia for reliability and value and I'm so glad I did!

I love the design, as well, which takes many cues from the bigger Telluride.

It rides nice ,we have had 2 trips in it that were over 1000 miles.

It’s spacious, safe, smooth ride, great gas mileage.

The ride quality is good and overall quality is quite good.

Excellent ride and handling with very quiet cabin.

The ride quality is immaculate to other competitors at this price point.

My step dad has the 2020 I have driven before and always liked how smooth the ride was,

This car is very comfortable and quiet both of which are very important to me plus great pick up when needed.

But the comfort of this car is wildly insane.

Inside is very comfortable and well thought out!

It’s so fun to drive and the seats are super comfortable for trips.

The 100,000 mile limited powertrain warranty gives me comfort, as does the bumper to bumper 60k warranty.

Very comfortable and roomy (even the third row if you’re a kid!

But the driving mileage is why I got this one.

I routinely achieve 4o MPG or better over local roads.

On the positive side:  It drives beautifully smooth, does get good mileage

The mileage is good for an AWD, at 22 city and 27 highway.

2022 Kia Sorento Hybrid

2022 Cadillac CT4

but if it is like the other new Cadillacs (and the numerous other GM brand cars) I have owned in the past, it will be trouble-free and very reliable.

The linear lines of its design, (that instantly identifies it as a Cadillac) with a touch of sculpturing make the CT4 appear longer and larger than it is.

Console is larger for necessary documents and very convenient.

Seat adjustments are comfortable and work well, even fitting a short person like myself.

Performance, and comfort is seriously lacking!

I find the modern definition of interior luxury to my liking and its quality and appearance on par, in my opinion, with its competitors which I've sat inside.

2022 Kia Sorento

Interior is stylish & spacious and the ride is as nice as my Cadillac.
