2022 Acura RDX

speed

The heads up display is perfect especially if you have the navigation going, it give the up coming turns right on your window shield, along with the current speed limit (which changes as soon as it recognizes a speed limit sign).

paddle

With the sport steering while, sport mode, shift mode and the sport paddles, it feels like you’re driving a race car.

interior

Really like it so far, interior is amazing when fully loaded!

I own a 2014 RDX and it is more luxurious than the newer interior.

cruise

Lots of convenience features like heated steering wheel, automatic dimming hi beams, adaptive cruise control, etc.

When the adaptive cruise control is set, the car keeps you centered in your lane.

feature

2021 Toyota Corolla

engine

Other than that the engine is smooth if not a little loud.

but for ease of recognition of engine status and use of controls the design is lacking compared to at least one other Japanese import.

This car handles well on the road with a smooth engine it has the basics for a safe car.The interior design needs improvement for example it doesn’t have pockets for the passengers.The sensors on the car are useless lane assist  works intermittently.

transmission

The transmission is rough when shifting out of launch gear to the CVT.

(not safe)

Transmission has a slight shudder similar to the terrible Fords issue, when you pull out and accelerate there is a delay.

Had a Ford Fiesta 2013 transmission absolutely garbage.

Problems already with transmission hard shift.

buttons hard to hit  dealership tells me I have to wait for a "repair bulliten" from Toyota to fix CVT problem apparently all of the CVTs 21 Corollas do the same thing I drove another 21' with Technition same thing clunky trans Teck heard it and felt it too.

phone

Phone connection is awful and unusable, people on the other end can understand a word you say.

There's no included apps in the Infotainment system, and navigation is available only through Android and Apple Carplay.

Me being a teenager I may or may not use my phone while driving,

acceleration

The only flaws with the CH is that while the acceleration gets the job done around town, you will struggle to keep up at freeway speeds, even in power mode.

I like that the dashboard also gives you the option to view your speed digitally, and displays speed-limit signs, brighten or dim control lights &#47; LCD screen.

The Car I got meets all my needs, great on gas, pick up speed, enough room and great radio and one owner me.

The CVT transmission with the paddle shift in sport mode helps you build that speed at 4000 rmps or more.

The paddle shifters make this a fun car to drive if like to change things up.

fuel

Pros: Great ride and decent handling (SE), fuel economy, comfy interior, nice styling and I get compliments on it's looks (SE)

Cons: Inconsistent and clunky transmission, lumpy idle and very light steering.

Good points - Great, I mean great fuel economy (62  mpg), fun to drive, lane keep assist is a hoot, roomy for compact, reasonably deep trunk.

The Audi had all the same some stuff as my corolla that I wanted; lane keep assist, apple car play, adaptive cruise control, good fuel economy and a great price!

Everything from my 64 miles per gallon, to the tightness of the car, to the reliability, to the audio system, and to the price of it.

Overall, it’s a great sporty and reliable car with great fuel economy.

Well made,transmission first class very smooth,excellent gas mileage.

This car met all my nets, good price, good gas mileage, the right  size.

comfortable

Compact car really good for 4 people and the comfort level is good, car is very smooth.

Comfortable, attractive, very smooth ride, easy to handle and 
spacious for a compact with excellent visibility.

The handling and grip is surprisingly potent, yet doesn't sacrifice ride quality and comfort to achieve this.

I just got a 2021 L model and being the most basic trim level I am very surprised how smooth and comfortable it is to drive it.

The Corolla is an extremely comfortable ride.

Great styling
Comfortable to sit in and I am 6ft tall

The value for the interior quality, safety features and of course.

And whenever you're inside, there's quite a good number of tech goodies that will keep you busy and informed.

Reliable vehicle built with comfort, great new looks, and loads of safety features.

Stereo is fabulous and the other amenities make it so fun to drive.

This car has plenty of leg room and is loaded with features.

I'm very pleased overall with the comfort , value of features, driving characteristics, and gas mileage.

2021 Honda CR-V Hybrid

screen

There are far too many display pages an at least  half of them are meaningless and useless.

If I must be critical the only thing I would say is the infotainment display and the cars backup camera system could be better quality considering how nice the rest of the car is put together.

Sport mode and paddle speed control perfect for Blue Ridge pkwy travel.

I enjoy my new car from Honda, like anything I recommend doing the research before buying to avoid disappointment, the one item that some people commented on I have noticed which is the acceleration issue to highway speeds.

Lane departure, Cruise assist, speed maintain auto, blind spot, back up camera with sensors and a few more!

Big car with plenty of room, beautiful inside and out.

Honda CRV interior quality superb, clean, simple, easy to use and stylish.

The leather interior is soft and stylish and is a great combination with the exterior paint color.

The car is a beautiful dark blue metallic with a gray interior.

I love everything about this vehicle inside and out.

I love the interior color and the leather seats.

room

Get the hybrid and drive conservatively, and beat this &#36;5 gas, and still have lots of room.

The spot for the "fix a flat" has a weird box thing that takes of space needlessly.

5) Honda is more roomy interior both seating and the truck space (except the under cover area in the trunk.

This car is roomy, plenty of leg space at the front and back.

Great space, storage, wireless charging, USB ports.

Beautiful , comfortable, and reliable with advanced and easy to use safety electronics.

Most important things, I like about car is comfort and sound.

3) Handling is fantastic: It’s a car for every day driving, quiet, comfortable and smooth handling vs. RAV4 is sporty and less quiet and smooth.

It is a beautiful car with great power (for the engine) and a comfortable ride.

We are very impressed with the smooth, comfortable ride and great performance.

A huge improvement in comfort and features over my 2005 model CR-V. Good integration of driver controls and safety monitors.

It is very comfy and came with all the extra features and safety equipment I wanted as standard equipment.

2021 Mazda Mazda3

noise

Dealership experience was good, and a service appointment to address some minor interior rattles was filmed and emailed to me, which was a pleasant surprise.

The safety warnings will make you jump at first: the noise is loud and scary, making you look at the dashboard to find out what you're doing wrong.

gear

The automatic is well tuned, and a mature design, so it's never hunting gears and matches the engine output perfectly.

Very little plastic pieces inside with the exception of the gear shift panel that will scratch if you’re not careful.

The heads-up display is excellent, showing current speed and speed limit, navigation directions, and blind spot monitoring -

The car also lets you know when you're speeding with a big red line along the speedometer, showing the difference in your speed and the legal speed.

Amazing speed right off the post, plenty of power to get you into (and out of) trouble.

Manual mode is well executed, and you can go from the paddles, to the gear shift, if you want.

I took delivery of my 2021 Mazda 3 Turbo Sedan premium plus package on February 19th of 2021 and I can say that the last year has been a satisfying experience with no surprises 1 way or the other.

She loves it because it is a great looking car with tons of safety features and drives great.

The safety features on this car are also fantastic.

Easy on gas and has lot's of options for the base model.

I really like the safety features, which were obviously selected to be the best, most unobtrusive ways to drive safely.

More power than you need, all-wheel drive without the look, lots of options included, very comfortable for touring or just a roundabout vehicle.

The car is fantastic, it is just a fine looking ride and has all the safety features you could want + I got the premium package !

The amenities, the drive, and the comfort is far superior. 10/10!

Safety features galore which was of top importance to me and the Mazda3 is rated a top safety pick.

I love zoom zooming around in it and feel very comfortable with my decision to go from high end luxury to fun and sporty.

Comfort you can literally see with your eyes.

This car is easy to drive and has extremely comfortable seats.

turn-handling

Handling is predictable, with far less body roll than previous generations.

Mazda 3 has the best car handling in its class.

For the first few days, you’ll want to drive it like you stole it because it seriously takes corners like no other car I’ve driven and has acceleration and passing power like something out of a luxury car.

It has a great turning radius and very good pickup.

So, I've previously owned two Mazdas: a Miata and a CX-5, both are fine handling, well made, well designed cars.

Check out any on-line YouTube video of professional test drivers and this great little car and see how impressed they all are with the handling, price, and looks of this top pick for 2021.

2021 Mazda CX-5

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

and the car is in passing gear and the tack  is at 6,000rpm the car is doing 72 mph and it just stays there it wont down shift into drive .

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.

keyless

buttons are hidden in the cup holder&#47;armrest compartment which should have been rethought and moved elsewhere.. Maybe the door perhaps or under the climate control vents.

buttons on the side that are difficult to see, the car is a gas guzzler with a small gas tank (I didn't like all the extra stops for gas and the flimsy gas lid), the turbo lags, the ride is bumpy, the interior paint around the inside doors is cheap and does not have a gloss coat like the car exterior, the wheel wells have cheap felt inside them making them difficult to clean, the interior lighting is poor even with the included floor lighting in the signature, and the driver's side leather seat was starting to wrinkle after only 2 months!

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.

backing

), the non-touch screen was frustrating, the cup holders were in a bad place, the armrest was too short that I couldn't use it--it's positioned too far back for a female driver, the seats are too straight that I would slide while making turns, the window line is too high--it's too small going through a drive-thru as there is not a good clearance to receive orders, the back windows do not fully roll down, it does not have knee airbags, the heated steering wheel only partially heats—I would touch cold parts during backing out, the key fob is a cheap quality with small

failure

My salesperson failed to tell me that the steering wheel is only partially heated, which for me is a big issue.

Several attempts to correct the issue have all failed.

The engine alone has amazing speed and the turbo equally rivals some other competitors.

I test drove a Rav4 and while it was a nice car as well, the dash reminded me of a space ship b/c there was so much going on at once and I struggled to even locate my current speed amongst everything else.

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

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.

The safety features are like nothing I've ever seen, gentle warnings when a car gets too close to your side, a car in front of you brakes quickly, and when you're changing lanes

Love the leather interior and sunroof on the preferred package!

Mazda offers plenty of safety features which is nice,

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

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

The CX-5 features starting getting on my nerves.

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.

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

The interior with leather heated seats is so very comfortable.

It’s comfortable, reliable, stylish and overall a car I would drive for years to come.

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

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.

The ride is excellent and it has a very quiet interior.

Although the interior has less bells and whistles then a CX-9 and is smaller it still has the perfect sporty feel.

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 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.

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

2021 Toyota Corolla Hybrid

Car is very reliable, comfortable  and gets great gas/electric gas mileage.

After testing other Corolla gas models, bought Corolla Hybrid!

mileage

This car has an extremely good MPG and is very fast on the road compared to other compact cars.

I was surprised this car is roomy, comfortable, and a little bit sporty.

If you are looking for a comfortable fun car to drive the corolla is it.

It was an extremely comfortable ride for a car of it's size.

but ever corolla come standard with all the safety features, but the blind spot mirrors which is a good price to pay for comfort and peace of mind.

2021 Nissan Altima

Brakes started squeaking while I turned slowly.

Smoother drive, less noise inside of the vehicle from the outside.

The steering wheel has paddle shifters like a race car.

but I am very pleased with my purchase, smooth, quiet, comfortable, great sound system.

The interior is very comfortable with more than ample leg room.

Very comfortable nice interior great design happy customer I will be back in three years for a new one

If you are looking for an everyday car with great ride and gas mileage this is the one for you.

Fuel economy seems excellent at this point in time.

Gas mileage is very good, 30+mpg in town, 35 hiway.

ride

This car rides like a much higher priced car even with the 19” wheels.

Altima rides smoothly is very spacious and has ample trunk space.

2021 Subaru Crosstrek

It is fine on the highway for noise at speeds of 70.

After buying the car, I tried all the modes: paddle shifters, intelligent&#47;sport mode, driving with all the eyesight, lane drift detection, lane centering, cruise control.

It's great for a family with a lot of room for packages in the back.

There are no markings in the engine bay the Limited has a 2.5L engine and the service department generally did not know there is a 2.5L option in the two models of 2021 Crosstrek, the Sport and Limited models.

Lots of safety features and excellent comfort if you are not over 6'2' inches or large person.

I like having the remote start option on my phone

The dashboard layout is convenient and android&#47;apple auto play is a great feature.

This wonderful "safety feature" is for your own good and cannot be turned off.

The features you get with Subaru at this price point is a great value when comparing to other crossovers.

traded my ‘18  Ltd for new 2.5 Ltd and wow what a pleasure!

Had the 2021 Crosstrek for roughly 3 months and I gotta say it’s the most fun car I’ve ever owned.

The 2.5 provides a much more enjoyable experience and less concern about merging into fast lanes and passing on two or four lane highways.

Took it for a test drive and it rides really nice.

Strengths are quiet  and serine ride for a small compact SUV.

The ride is the polar opposite of smooth.

It has poise and a reasonably smooth ride for its size and category.

2021 Kia Stinger

Fantastic handling, performance, speed, and comfort.

The automatic transmission shifts quickly and smoothly whether it does it on its own or you command it via the column paddles.

sporty

Put it in Sport mode and it gets nicely edgy.

This car is exactly what I was looking for reasonable price sporty look and all at the same time a family car for me and my children

but the comfort, performance, styling and practicality make it worth buying.

2020 Honda Civic

While I did like the older Civics, this is the first generation of Civic where I can say the ride and road noise is actually bearable for a long road trip.
