2023 Audi Q5

sporty

The sport seat option with ventilated seats are firm and comfortable and interior features are rich and functional; everything is where we want it to be which enhances the driving experience.

turn-handling

power to weight ratio is great with a smooth power curve during acceleration.

2022 Genesis GV70

tank

The fuel tank is only 18 gal so just under 400mi per fill.

The gas tank is pretty small, only a gallon larger than my previous Honda Accord, and with such a powerful engine, you can get under 300 miles on a full tank which isn't the best.

fuel

The only con I can identify at the moment is the fuel efficiency.

Lastly, the gas consumption &#38; mileage isn't the best.

The car is quiet, responsive, comfortable, sporty, gorgeous inside and out, and feels very sure-footed in inclement weather.

Looks great, sporty, comfortable, great technology.

In Comfort mode it's a lux cruiser, in Sport it really changes to a different vehicle,

Coming from Range Rover Sport , this Genesis has more than exceeded in many ways.

but needs an SUV and I am thrilled to say this is the sport sedan of suvs.

I purchased the GV 70 Sport Prestige addition, love it.

Love my 3.5 turbo sport prestige package.

3.5T Sport Advanced in the most gorgeous matte grey.

The turn signal with camera activates a screen view on the dashboard.

but with that comes great handling and style, I traded a Audi Q7 without batting an eye . .

I expected a little better, tighter handling than it has,

Buttery smooth acceleration &#38; down shifts, superb cabin noise isolation, adaptive and smooth handling--it puts it's German rivals that are at and even above it's price range to complete shame.

but it's amazing that it takes turns by itself. Crazy.

interior

I love the design, inside and out, fit and finish is Mercedes quality, and the tech is first class.

Wife loves elegance of interior and sound system.

So quiet on the inside and sound system is great.

I wish Genesis GV70 would offer heads-up display and heated rear seats in lesser packages, like the 2.5T Advanced, and offer the Beige interior with more gloss light exterior colors, like with the Savile Silver or Brunswick Green.

Nice finish inside and out,  and a great bang for the buck.

The interior is luxurious, the performance stunning and the tech element is out of this world.

I have been driving it for a week now and even my family and friends have been impressed with this inside and out.

It has fantastic exterior and interior styling, smooth yet quick 3.5TT engine, and all the bells and whistles to keep you excited to drive it ever time you get in.

feature

The options and amenities Genesis included in this vehicle is amazing.

AND the best part is the safety features!

Especially like the excess of heads up safety features .

But after seeing this car in person and driving it, I think it has more style, more features, more luxury, and more power than the competition.

For the same price or less, I can move into the others and have all the features that I wanted.

This a beautiful and luxurious vehicle with all the sporty and up greated features, as any suv on the market.

On top of all that it's exceptionally functional: all the safety features you can ask for, it can borderline drive itself, has remote and smart park features, and comes with Hyundai&#47;Genesis' unbeatable warranty and maintenance.

The tech package that is included is phenomenal compared to the other high end luxury brands.

comfortable

Wonderfull styling comfortable for long trips.

Blows away the X3, GLC300, F-Pace, Evoque, RDX and Q5 in comfort, ride and power of the same 2.0L-2.5L engine.

Rear passenger comfort is excellent-I only wish US spec cars had cooled rear seats.

Bold new design, beautiful style, outstanding comfort, great performance, cutting-edge technology &#38; class-leading warranty (+ extended lifetime drivetrain warranty at no additional charge through high-volume dealer).

Drive it in comfort mode and this thing is

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.

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.

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.

Car performs well getting on interstates, handling is incredible.

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

very fun car to drive, good handling, peppy with the 1.5L engine.

I think it's a fun drive took an 80 mile drive that's mostly sharp curves and turns higher and lower speeds Easy handling,  was fun driving it, if you like those types of drives.

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

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.

but love how cheap gas is and reliable it is.

mileage

2022 Volkswagen Taos

transmission

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.

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

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

Have to drive in Sport mode to keep up with traffic.

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

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.

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.

ride

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.

The soft touch makes resting the elbow more comfortable,

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 Ford Bronco Sport

The 2022 Ford Bronco Sport OBX, bought new, has been a gem so far!

My Bronco Sport Outer Banks has lots of technology, great ride and easy on fuel costs.

We have had our 2022 Ford Bronco Sport for about 7 months, and we love it!!

Very sporty look and great features with good highway comfort and mileage

I love my Bronco Sport Badlands, I'd hug it if I could get my arms around it.

The 2022 Ford Bronco Sport SUV is made by Ford

The Bronco Sport handles well and is very comfortable.

Note, if you change modes, it will turn it's self back on.

It has a decent ride, handles quite well, and the 1.5 gets way better mileage than stated.

Great fuel economy great ride and in the sport mode if you need power for big city interstate driving you've got it.

My dogs really enjoy the ride too as now they sit in the back and just look like Joe Cool Snoopy.

Loving the dash displays and interior features.

but you can't  turn it off

Get the premium package, it's well worth the price

If you like the "mini-SUV" vehicles, you'll love the Bronco Sport.

family

The technology in the vehicle is very user friendly and the overall experience has been positive for me and my family

FORD hit this one out of the ballpark with baby and big brother BRONCO IMO.

2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid

gear

Reverse Gear warning sound - It is much too loud and sounds like a backhoe backing up.

but at times the transmission seems to shudder into 3rd or 4th gears and almost lurches the passengers forward for a half second, but it's not consistent enough to be checked by the dealership.

The only cons are at very low speeds and very light acceleration it sometimes hunts for the correct gear.

backing

The whole parking lot doesn't need to know I'm backing out of a parking spot.

radio

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.

phone

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.

I’m also having issues with the check engine light and the mechanics can’t figure out why.

Styling - especially the front daytime running lights 
2.

Putting signal lights at the lowest point on a vehicle is just asking for trouble.

Plenty of power and handling is competent,  if not sporty.

I think the most fun I have is using the Sport mode while driving on mountain roads.

but so far can handle the Wisconsin winter.

This one handles great in all weather types.

Headlights are bright and consistent, and stretch wide enough to see the sides of the road without blinding others or turning on the brights.

The rear turn indicators are low and the bumper.

It handles well, is quiet at lower speeds;( with exception of noisy backup alert).

The car felt very stable cornering (sends power to rear wheels when cornering) even fully loaded.

but would have been nice to have adaptive headlights or fog lights for better cornering at night.

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

This car has more going for it in technology, comfort, and never feel a lack of power when needed.

Very comfortable, quiet, powerful and extremely attractive.

my family loves the styling , ride and comfort

Plenty of power, smooth ride, effortless to drive, and comfortable.

The interior is very comfortable &#38; with the Limited trim we also got the 10" screen.

Otherwise it is very comfortable and has a nice ride quality.

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

This Tucson is a much smoother ride than my previous version, and it has the styling that turns heads.

I'm overall very happy &#38; look forward to several years with my new ride!

People have complemented its looks on several occasions and it's a comfortable ride.

but the rest of the SUV has made it a very enjoyable ride.

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.

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

love all the safety features, the car almost drives itself.

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

So many great standard features, it's hard to believe.

For the price, value, and especially the maintenance package and warranty, I would definitely do it all over again.

Have the SEL premium package gas Tucson since November and I love the interior features of the car!

Selected this over the RAV4 mainly for the technology, features, and design.

Wireless CarPlay and all convenience package features are worth it.

2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz

port

Even using USB cable to connect Android Auto, the system has a hard time maintaining connection at 50&#37; of the time.

I was advised the items: tonneau cover, bed lights and electric cord in bed will take 3 to 4 months till dealers will be in stock. Bummer

heat/air-control

At night switch’s climate controls from whatever you have it set on to defrost and fogs windows up.

While driving the dual wet clutch transmission went into neutral while on a highway.

lane-assist

Even the SEL has electric seat adjustment, tilt steering wheel, heated seats, backup assistance, lane assist, blind spot and other alerts.

but the blind spot warning and various camera modes offset the issues.

child

Loved being the first to show this baby off.

I would never recommend it to a family with children.

but has a bed that's really useful for all the wet stuff when I go kayaking, as well as for other messy fun outdoor sports stuff.

Compared to the Bronco Sport, my Santa Cruz is a Luxury truck.
