2023 Mazda CX-50

audio-system

but clarity and sound not great at low volumes.

Terrible AC system that can't keep up with 80F weather!

Don't love the audio and that's about it.

Outdated navigation and interactive system.

steering

Well put together at a plant shared with Toyota; responsive throttle, precise, heavy steering, practical interior layout with physical

turbo

Turbo mounted in the back - behind a motor, makes future service a headache and it makes engine bay super hot.

The turbo engine makes accelerating smooth, and before you know it, you are going 90, and it feels like 60.

engine

Acceleration ok at best given engine size.

speed

Very noisy at highway speeds with the 20" wheels/tires.

Even at high speeds, this little truck eats up the curves like a more expensive luxury vehicle.

fuel

Gas mileage (Measured by fill up) was 23.5 miles per gallon on a 360 mile round trip and the trip computer showed 27.6 mpg's Build quality seems okay

The fuel efficiency is not as advertised.

2022 Subaru Outback

First off the brown leather interior is beautiful, second vented seats, heated steering wheel and what a sound system! We're seniors and this will probably be our last car, talk about going out on top ;)

This model has the turbo engine where you sacrifice gas mileage for performance especially if you live in mountain states.

The turbo engine had an outrageous amount of power making it excellent for passing cars and climbing elevation.

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

And with the XT trim and the turbo 2.4 one of the quickest.

The Outback Touring XT has a rough-sounding turbo engine coupled to a jerky, inconsistent CVT transmission that makes smooth starts impossible.

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.

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.

Love the large screen and safety equipment.

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,

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

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

interior

The grey, twede, cloth interior is beautiful.

Love the Java brown interior .Chevy buyer the last 20 yrs.

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

The vehicle looks great on the exterior and the interior design was exceptional, including the large display screen which is extremely easy to use and quite intuitive.

2022 Nissan Rogue

Things like semi-autonomous steering, braking, and collision avoidance.

Heated leather seats, panoramic moonroof, Bose speakers, 202 horsepower with turbo, the cameras on it are neat, and remote start both from the fob and from the app on my phone to name just a few things I love about it.

Love the smooth ride and performance with the turbo charge engine and better gas mileage.

The car consumes much more fuel, than advertised, I do not know, how it is possible to cheat that much in adds, the average is 21, that is terrible.

feature

After my husband decided that he needed a car again vs. a truck we went back and found a Rogue Premium Package was perfect for us.

Kia and other model are definitely a better option.

The cruise  and navigation systems are outstanding as are the safety features.

Great styling, handling and lots of engine power.

Don’t care much for the new 3 cylinder engine:  it’s noisy

2022 Volkswagen Taos

lights

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

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

The stalling the engine does when you slow down makes it very dangerous because the car automatically wants to turn off when coming to a stop, the start/stop mode is supposed to help

Power seats have a lot of room for adjustments and the steering wheel telescopes.

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.

room

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

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

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

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

ride

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 colors are brighter, the options better and mine has a huge sun roof.

Electrical/Technology: Related to Start/Stop and other safety features, the vehicle has some bugs that I'm hoping can be resolved.

The features are great: wireless Apple CarPlay, heated front seats, and an app to control the car through.

2022 Cadillac CT4

Controls are thoughtfully located within reach whether on the steering wheel or on the touch screen.

The Turbo 4-cylinder engine is powerful and responsive.

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

large-size

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.

2022 Acura RDX

Sport mode changes how the car handles, accelerates, brakes, the steering becomes more responsive, and handles the curves.

but with the turbo, I think the RDX has better pick up, then my 2020 Blazer.

2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz

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.

child

Loved being the first to show this baby off.

I would never recommend it to a family with children.

it's very comfortable and with a power driver's seat & tilt/telescoping steering wheel you would have to be a one armed monkey if you can't find a sweet spot.

Better gas mileage, even with the turbo and uses regular gas.

I absolutely love it - it’s comfortable, handles well, the bed is really useful and the gas mileage is pretty good.

A recent 300 mile day trip confirmed that the seats are comfortable and well padded.

We love this trucklet, it's my wifes fav car ever, plenty of power and very comfy, low wind noise and bed comes in handy, mpg not super

I own a full size gas guzzling pick up so my interest in the Santa Cruz had little to do with hauling or towing.

As far as gas mileage, I have gotten 30+ MPG on occasion.

mileage

2022 Hyundai Kona N

The steering has a ton of feel, is quick, direct, and well weighted with minimal understeer.

The throttle response is instant, and I personally don’t pick up on much turbo lag.

It is the most fun vehicle I have ever owned after owning a string of great vehicles starting with a then-new 1968 Z28 Camaro.

But as far as pure driving joy for the money goes, look no further.

exhaust

Even in eco mode the exhaust has some nice notes.

I personally like to have everything cranked to the max other than the suspension, which I leave in its lowest setting, and the exhaust, which I keep in sport rather than sport +,

2022 Mazda CX-5

Headlights are very bright and adaptive with steering, I love the bulls audio speaker system.

The turbo is a bit thirsty and I only get 19 to 20mpg in the city and 22 struggling on the highway, It’s time for Mazda to be able to get better mileage with a modern turbo like other manufacturers, end of the day go for it it’s a great SUV!

The maintenance and repair costs are more for those engines.

Engine has more engine noise than the 2.0 engine.

Mazda has greatly improved this model in recent years with a better, quieter ride, more comfortable seating and better performance.

Decent ride and performance for a 4 cyl, compact SUV.

service

Everyone at Empire Mazda in Huntington was wonderful from start to finish. AZ & Mike Farina were both very helpful and patient - 10 stars for service :)

Always followed up with me, great customer service and the best choice for me

2021 Kia Seltos

noise

Road noise is very noticeable and having a conversation with a passenger can be a bit difficult.

This even after Techs from two different dealerships test drove and declared 1) "That is not right" (when he felt the vibration) and 2) described in his report to KIA as "Excessive Steering vibration".

Things I don’t like, only 2 proper cup holders, the front windshield wipers the lowest speed is too fast so if it’s drizzling out you have to keep turning the wipers on then turn them off.

The only true Con I have for this vehicle is the stiff jolt the vehicle occupants get when going over deep potholes and particularly bad speed bumps.

sensor

The only drawback I can truly say is the front collision sensor doesn't work too well when driving in heavy snow or slush.

I traded in a 2017 Sportage SX for the new 2021 Seltos SX.The styling and gas mileage were what sold me.I gave up some comforts like heated steering wheel and cooled seats

It handles very well, unlike most suv's, and the turbo gets up and going very quickly.

Plenty of legroom for a small CUV good power in the non turbo version and alot of cargo room for a small vehicle .

I love driving this seltos with the turbo.

The 1.6 turbo engine is very responsive and gets great gas mileage.

The SX Turbo is fun to drive and has great luck-up!

I went with the SX  and love the turbo and awd.

In SX turbo, the engine is quiet, responsive and ready to go.

but once the turbo kicks in it's very fast.

Other than those, I would recommend this car to anyone who is looking for a small SUV with power, comfort and safety.

AWD standard in the lower model plenty of visibility and confortable on long drives .

I love this car it is comfortable and roomy.

SMALL ENGINE BUT REALLY COMFORTABLE INSIDE, LOOKS LIKE A SMALL VERSION OF THE RANGE ROVER.

but, I'm 6'3 300 lbs and I fit in this Seltos LX comfortable.

It is comfortable, affordable, and drives very smooth.

but felt the new styling and mileage made up for those comforts but als picked up some new features such as the automatic cruise control,auto headlights and remote start.So far very impressed with the new Seltos

Also, because of the safety features, my insurance drop like a stone!! !

Great vehicle, no complaint, best warranty out there,good performance, nice features, safety ,compact color selection  are nice,interior nice features, exterior is great,handed great,  great on gas. .100%recommended

Very numerous safety features will actuallly help me become a better driver.

but Kia has a lot of videos to explain all the features.

It has all the safety features and amenities I wanted and needed.

but not too big, tons of safety features and I love the look of it.

Lots of safety features, great fuel economy, and value.

But that aside; this car has excellent responsiveness to driver demands, a very intuitive driver assistance package, a great sound system, comfortable seating all seating positions, great gas mileage (even in the thirsty Sport mode), and last

FOR THE PRICE & ALL OF THE OPTIONS ON IT & THE ROOM IN IT, IT WAS AN EXCELLENT BUY FOR THE PRICE OF IT .

Car all and beyond very reliable transportation and most of all space room to travel shopping sports gear with the children games and there team

but this is a game changer so easy to handle and the space is wonderful this definitely changed my mind

Perfect for traveling with my family and has plenty of room for all of my grandbabies stuff.

Plenty of upfront room for me which was hard to find coming from a roomy 09 Pilot!

I'm Surprise it has allot of Leg Space as for general it's not the biggest Interior space

Excellent car has plenty of room very nicely designed.

2021 Subaru Outback

as are the  Heated/Ventilated seats and heated steering wheel.

It seem that every Subaru I get seems to have wheel alignment problem always pulling the steering more to the right, yes every Subaru I got and this one does not defer from the previous ones I got.

The new Subaru Outback XT Series with the 2.4 liter Turbo engine is fun to drive, plenty of power and still good fuel economy.

The eye sight system is impressive the XT models with the turbo have good power!

This thing is like driving on air and the power in this XT turbo model is unbelievable.

Turbo charged engine has alot of power and I average 26.5 mpg so far.

Especially love the turbo that my Onyx has.

Mechanically, this is a nice car: good gas mileage, comfortable, good 4WD capability.

There’s plenty of leg room , so comfortable and has great safety features that you would love.

This vehicle has a very comfortable cabin.

The seats are some of the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in.

Very comfortable to drive and lots of room.

Needed something comfortable to drive with all of the necessary safety features as well as having enough power to tow my ATV.

Comfortable to drive, sporty exterior, great gas mileage, and plenty room for family and all the stuff that comes with life!!!

Smooth ride, quiet, lots of active monitoring systems.

but it drives easily and rides comfortably .

The ride Kandloff quite on a smooth road or highway

The ride of this car is great - soft and well-controlled.

So far great ride,  acceleration, and look.

I love the car, love the ride, so much quieter Don't love learning all the technology.

It has the ride of a luxury car and can still carry items when needed.

There are lots of convenient features including plenty of safety features and lots of space.

The Onyx features black exterior trim components and rims for more style.

It has all of the features of a luxury vehicle.

I love all the security features added to the Outback: I had a 2013 Outback which I loved

Their response "you have plenty of warranty left", as if the safety feature that has twice tried to kill me would ever be left on again.

It has most of the options that we wanted,

I am really enjoying Subaru's electronic accident avoidance features, which our previous car did not have.

Gorgeous automobile with all the safety features you could want.

2021 Mazda CX-5

touchscreen

The only drawback is no touchscreen once i got used to it - don’t even notice now and the way the design is in my signature turbo you don’t need to divert your eyes from the road - everything easy to use sleek and uncomplicated.

Only issues I have is the home screen- it's not a touch screen?

I don't mind not having a touch screen infotainment center since it would require leaning forward to touch it while the controls on the center console can be easily found with the hand without looking.

roof

The size of the sunroof was incredibly disappointing.

My only wish is that the sunroof extended farther back and was electric.

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.

The steering wheel can be set for comfort by pulling it out or pushing it in or moving it up or down.

The Mazda CX-5 AWD Grand Touring Reserve Turbo is the Best SUV I’ve had!

The CX-5 turbo has met or exceeded our expectations.
