2021 Honda Civic

reliable

I, like having a nice car that is reliable and easy going.

Talk about having a nice reliable vehicle.

Really nice dependable car. Nothing to worry about.. "Full warranty"

I, really like having apple car play and also having a dependable vehicle as my daily driver.

One of the most reliable vehicle's out there.

Really dependable car these are, especially when there's a full fantastic warranty.

Reliable transportation without any concerns.

quality

These car's are nicely made with quality.

Good quality car that also has a turbo engine.

Nice looking quality car with newer technology.

Just a nice quality car with a lot to offer.

Nice interior, and good quality condition.

Just keep your car nice and good quality condition.

fuel

I, bought this car just to get good gas mileage and to have a nice car that is low maintenance cost.

mileage

It's a fun car to drive being a small turbo type of car.

Nice stereo system with apple car play to enjoy the music.

Definitely affordable and it's a fun car to drive.

This car is fantastic and it's been fun driving it.

These cars are alot of fun driving around.

2021 Toyota Venza

noise

But I wasn't crazy for the stiff rides and the wind noise due to the height.

It is almost like metal piece rattling in the cargo area.

On highways, I noticed very little wind noise,

It make very very little sound or vibration when the gas motor starts/stops.

A little more road noise than I would;d like.

I noticed that when I play the radio a little too loud, the bass makes the dashboard buzz.

I am very disappointing with the 2021 Venza Driving Feel, I bought my Venza in December 17, 2020 and from the very beginning I heard the noise produced by the hybrid system (dealer technician said),

I have had  my car insulated to cut down on the road noise, thinking that was the issue.

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

engine

though this car is a 4 cylinder, it does not feel underpowered at all and it zips around town with no issues.

I like how the engine shuts off coasting, braking, or stopped at a light.

no clunk when the engine turns off at a light like my wife's E350.

Perhaps the biggest compliment other than a droning engine when pushed hard is that you don't even realize you're driving a hybrid most of the time.

The start/stop of the engine does not bother me at all,

Not powerful or refined engine under hard acceleration as my 2014 Toyota Highlander XLE.

I have the 2021 Venza XLE I cannot get anymore than 41 liters of gas in it, and I run it down to where it says 20 KL left, anyone else have this problem, Toyota is doing nothing

navigation

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.

Also, nav & upgraded audio not worth the upcharges.

It’s NOT as quiet as a Lexus  

Cons:
#Worst navigation system I’ve ever seen.

brake

We love everything about our Venza except , occasionally upon applying the brakes we hear a loud sound like metal banging.

The wind noise breaks into the interior just after 40mph and driving 70 on a highway in addition to buzzing from the wheels on a large-fraction asphalt or whistling on a concrete will make you head blow in just couple of hours.

After several failed attempts and the brake pedal going to the floor, I got out of the car, locked it, then re-entered and this time it worked properly.

A few times the Venza does not going to gear and I had to press the brake pedal again.

From the first week I had the BMW, I had issues with the brakes, the electronics, total engine shutdown, and the list goes on.

tire

In the owner's manual, it says that the Venza is not designed for off-roading (off-road only if unavoidable) and that snow chains cannot be mounted (mine has the bigger tires).

It's not bothered by extreme cross winds, snow, ice, slush, heavy rain - if you have the right tires.

It may be the Bridgestone eco tires, which I’ll eventually switch out to a better riding tire.

We are in our 60's and wanted a reliable, comfortable, all wheel drive vehicle.

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

Other than above it looks nice, drives like you expect and feels reliable.

Non-exciting, efficient, highly dependable cars.

Lexus with a Toyota nameplate, the quality made in Japan is unbelievable.

Overall, this is an excellent SUV in quality, comfort, ride and style.

but I haven't had any quality or design issues at all.

The Venza features checked most boxes for me near luxury features, unique styling more Lexus than Toyota and yes Jaguar like rear, quality construction, quiet, and comfortable ride, latest safety features and infotainment tech. .

They are only made in Japan so the quality is tops and evident.

The quality and features of this car are fantastic, near luxury without snobbery.

As a former Acura TSX owner, another car made in Japan, I enjoyed the clearly superior quality of cars made in Japan.

2) Ride Quality: The Venza seems to ride harshly for a $42K SUV.

- Upgraded stereo is definitely better than the base stereo, and has decent sound quality.

comfortable

It’s a comfortable ride, gets phenomenal gas mileage and love my stargaze roof.

the inside is luxurious, so comfortable and very quiet.

It is quiet, rides exceptionally smooth, 45.4 MPG, Sirius XM radio, 1st class power hatch, nice wheels, very comfortable seats, nice leather steering wheel, ect. .

The heated, ventilated seats are comfortable the vehicle is sharper in appearance than a Lexus and I just can't get over how much fun it is to drive.

The front seats are very comfortable and I love the ventilated seat option.

Smooth ride, comfortable with great features.

Feels roomier inside than the Limited Rav and most definitely a more comfortable ride.

The interior looks amazing and feels comfortable.

The seats are the most comfortable I ever sat in.

A comfortable and quiet ride was a priority, as we were coming from a Lexus RX350.

Although I got 55 mpg, in eco mode, going 7 miles to my grocery store in flat terrain, it was a boring ride.

Great gas mileage, avg 39 miles per gallon

Buy it because it's a hybrid, love it if you're willing to give up some gas mileage and have some real fun.

Great mileage so far, do not visit the gas station every week.

My overall gas mileage is 46.7 which is outstanding.

feature

You have three options economy 39.8 miles to the gallon without trying.

I knew I would never use moonroof, I was really happy to find a car with so many features without moonroof.

This vehicle is packed with luxury features like parking sensors, power folding mirrors, and memory seat.

Many of the tech features are easier to understand after reading the manual and/or watching the tips/tricks videos online.

2021 Toyota Highlander

Go online and see how many people complain
About rattling noises with Highlanders !

Buyer beware don’t let the salesman crank up the AC or heat to try and drown out the terrible whistling noise that occurs between 35-45 MPH on 2021 Highlander.

Brand new 2021 with ONLY 800 miles, every time i drive on barely rough roads i hear rattle and buzz noise from driver side, dash and passenger side, also wind noise on 40MPH!!!

Replaced front hood molding, placed weatherstripping under the hood molding and whistling noise continues intermittently.

Been back to the dealer X3 already due to whistling noise stemming from front hood molding.

When I asked the dealership why mine was noisy and her car was not, they told me to bring it in and they would check it out.

Perhaps Toyota will do more in their vehicles to isolate road noises.

but uphill driving around 90-95km/hr the car is vibrating.

but i may get over it , fit and finish not very good , you put that volume up things are shaking and squeaking again something i don’t expect after spending all that money , 8 inch screen and backup camera are bad like graphics !

My brand new 2021 Toyota Highlander has very bad wind noise specially 40 mph.

windshield

A few days later it was raining lightly and now I noticed the intermittent auto sensing wipers no longer worked.

Also the limited Highlander is lacking auto wipers and thigh extensions found in my previous car of the same trim.

In addition, adhesive on the front windshield panel is starting to peel off.

The windshield has some reflections of the dash if your facing the sun.

lights

Just picked up a 2021 Platinum a $63,000 vehicle and didn't even get it off the lot before I had a warning light about faulty brakes.

They have a very harsh line on low beam that makes it a difficult to see in certain situation like when I am driving down hill on an up and down place in the road.

radio

The car has a 12.5 inch navigation and radio display system.

however, with the radio on even at low volume, you won’t notice it at all.

The noise in the cabin at speeds over 55 mph are so loud even the radio is unable to cover the distraction of the tire noise.

Toyota is a proven reliable manufacturer.

All have been very reliable and only needed regular maintenance.

XSE model, Sporty, lots of upgrades, reliable, V6, smooth drive, leather seats.

Stylish, reliable, with all of the modern technology.

The quality from the interior, to the exterior is very appealing.

Solid ride, tangibly better than others in class with ride quality and noise insulation.

Great standard features , excellent ride and interior is all quality materials  , perfect for family use and a long trip, definitely recommend this vehicle

Initial quality and vehicle first impression has exceeded our expectations.

But I do still love the car just disappointed in the build

Ride quality comfort and safety features.

Great ride quality and very quite plenty of power when needed mpg is great too for this size of suv

I think this latest Highlander version has hit the sweet spot for comfort and handling.

The car is very comfortable and I have a bad back so I am also picky about the ride.

The Highlander is a very comfortable ride!! !

The features and comfort of the vehicle are great and after having the vehicle for a week I keep finding things that make me more satisfied.

The comfort and drive is also very satisfying.

Beautiful ride roomy and comfortable fits 6 people big trunk I recommend it to any one wants a beautiful big family car all my Friends and family loves my new ride

Very comfortable ride, great performance, interior styling is very attractive, plenty of features and well thought out creature comforts.

ride

The car-like ride and handling and the refinement sold us on the Toyota.

The car rides incredibly smoothly; I don’t think there is a smoother driving car out there if that is what you’re looking for.

Ride is incredible with a beautiful and very comfortable interior.

I like the riding comfort & back support of the seats as well as the visibility is better on an SUV as it sits up higher.

but I like the ride and maneuverability of vehicle.

specially because I have a big family, on plus , I love the smoothly ride and comfort

The platinum package is incredibly loaded with all the latest technology.

The technology package is also great, what a difference makes to jump from a 2015 car to a 2021 model, this car knows what you need to do next and just does it for you automatically.

The safety features, reliability and reputation of the Toyota brand is 2nd to none.

The added safety features and larger screen make this car especially easy to drive.

Smooth traction drive and smart acceleration, many useful features.

2021 Mazda CX-5

transmission

Feels like the motor is winding while the transmission waits too long to up-shift.

I also find the engine noisy under acceleration with transmission shift hesitancy and roar.

The transmission hesitates and thumps (in lower gears), making cornering, stopping and starting terrible.

The main problem is the automatic transmission.

but the transmission .it some times shifts hard .

The BMW drives like a dream with a smoother transmission and ride, much better build quality, has a light interior, a panoramic sunroof, and a bigger gas tank with better gas mileage.

Not as good as we had hoped, I could change gear in a manual gearbox car quicker than this car changes, also for the money not at all good value, sad to say we are already talking about changing it for something else.

My only complaint would be the budget tires they use.

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

Wind noise while driving with windows down very irritable, Gas mileable ok

but I suspect better tires could bring road noise in the cabin down even further.

However, the CX-5 transmission is solid and dependable with smooth shifts.

It’s classy, reliable, attractive and a steal at $30k.

I’m hoping it will be as reliable as three trusted mechanics (and Consumer Reports) told me it will be.

just a solid, reliable, small SUV with enough cargo space for groceries and the occasional small furniture purchase.

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

Good looking, reliable, great performing vehicle.

Car is a rhe smoothest car insurance have owned and is super reliable on the road.

Plenty of head/leg room, extraordinary amount of standard safety features, good gas mileage, luxurious interior, unique exterior styling, sturdy build, comfortable, and fun to drive.

No other car manufacturer comes close to the quality.

The power is fantastic, the ride is soooo much smoother , and the build quality is in a different universe from the GMC.

The BMW drives like a dream with a smoother transmission and ride, much better build quality, has a light interior with lots of lighting including ambient, a panoramic sunroof, and a bigger gas tank with better gas mileage.

Great quality vehicles, great sales, and great service!

Fit and finish is phenomenal, no rattles, no noises, you can just tell it is build well.

This is my third Mazda, and I really appreciate the value and quality this brand delivers.

I was happy with the interior styling and the quality of the upholstery.

For the money, you can not beat the quality.

We like the stability of the AWD, the safety features, the responsive steering and the seats.

I’m absolutely loving my cx-5, there are so many safety features and it’s purely luxury

but gained a multitude of safety features, gas usage reduction  and it is as much fun to drive as the Acura.

but also tilts side to side, making selecting options easier than a touch screen.

The high tech features are a continuing irritation.

Smooth, quiet, peppy, responsive with awesome safety features.

This could have been added as an option in a package without paying an extra $2000 to go up into another trim for other stuff not needed.

I really like the cylinder cut-off feature.

I purchased this vehicle mostly based on its safety features,

The CX-5 Touring is recommended by Consumer Reports, is comfortable, quick and economical enough without the turbo engine.

At a glance, it’s very polished and riding around in it is plenty comfortable and seems luxurious.

The attention to detail in the inner cabin and the comfort level is far superior.

Comfortable, packed with tech & safety and stylish.

but I'm now in a car that I thoroughly enjoy, we can get in and out of it with no problem at all and the seats are very comfortable

Sensing wipers, levelling headlights and a nice comfortable ride.

interior

The interior is upscale, the exterior is classier than the competition.

Mazda cuts corners with tech (especially) and cheaps out on some finishes to give you a 4-turbo and "soft touch" interior.

The interior seems plush and refined compared to other models

It had the best looking interior without going into the premium market.

I got the Soul Red Crystal with the white interior and I couldn't appreciate more how fun this is to drive.

Looks very classy and I love the interior of the CX5.

The interior design is very luxurious for a car that is inexpensive.

2021 Subaru Outback

but as soon as I got it home, I realized there was a very loud rattle above the driver's head.

My previous Outback had absolutely no rattles or squeaks,
