2023 Kia Seltos

turbo

With the turbo motor it has very good acceleration and decent gas mileage.

compact

The transmission is also surprisingly smooth in heavy traffic considering that it's a DCT. Overall, I'm a big fan of this compact SUV(?)

comfortable

I have a spinal injury and I find the seats and suspension to be very comfortable even over longer drives, and when you use the driver assist features even longer trips aren't as tiring.

engine

The engine puts out plenty of HP and torque to make the car responsive and it's quick which is very important when merging onto highways or general overtaking.

feature

2022 Mazda CX-5

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!

Although I haven't had it for a long time yet, I can feel this compact suv is built well and runs smoothly.

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

The maintenance and repair costs are more for those engines.

Engine has more engine noise than the 2.0 engine.

ride

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

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

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

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's a very basic compact SUV that is outclassed by probably 9/10 of its competitors.

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.

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.

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".

speed

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.

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.

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

The styling is very good looking, Its a great driving sub compact that doesn't feel like one.

Nice compact car that comes with som many features that I’m still learning the car.

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!! !

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 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 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.

Love the CX5, and now with the Turbo engine, it definitely has the Zoom-Zoom factor.

Turbo feature provides a quick response when passing.

The new turbo engine give the car some added pep.

We went with the Touring w/ the Premium package which has nearly all of the most important features of the higher models - other than the turbo engine.

I purchased the Carbon Turbo CX5, and I adore my new car.

This compact SUV so far is great, I have had it for 4 weeks.

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.

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.

This vehicle is equipped with so many features.

It has plenty of fun entertainment features to make me happy without overwhelming me with too much on my dash at once.

There are so many safety features and it has higher ground clearance than my Honda CRV.

It’s got every feature you need and a few you never thought of.

Gas mileage is exceeding expectations now and the high tech features are fun and useful!

Bought the CX-5 Grand Touring with Premium Package and it has all the bells and whistles that I was looking for.

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

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.

It's stylish and comfortable with plenty of room.

It looks like it could handle any road conditions  without sacrificing a safe and  comfortable  ride.

the bells and whistles are fun and handy GPS and road noise better than my C class Mercedes.

It’s fun to drive and I’m hoping it has great reliability as the reviews say.

They have refined the screen, tweak the transmission to where it’s really a joy to drive now.

It is fun to drive and has good pickup for highway driving

2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer

but for me it is fine a little noisy but great.

On good roads it is quiet and drives smoothly, there is some Road noise over rough roads,

warranty

Not covered under warranty or extended warranty 😡 cost me 525.00 to fix.

Dealership tells me its in my head about trans ummm ok. and stripping isn't covered under warranty ans pushes it back in.

leather

The only things I noticed it doesn't have is leather seats and a heated steering wheel, which none of the packages offer.

Additionally it looks great has all the bells and whistles without the $$$ tag on I have an LS 3cycl no turbo.

with the 9 speed transmission and turbocharged.

The ride is good, it handles very well has plenty of power for a 1.3 turbo and the appearance is sporty.

It has a turbo engine so it accelerates quickly, it has great safety features, an amazing sound system and screen display, it is sleek and has the perfect room in the front (back is fairly roomy

Car has everything I need, it's comfortable and the 1.3 Turbo is surprisingly quick.

I researched many compact SUVs, it is actually a great value at an affordable price!

Comfortable roomy just a great bang for your buck.

comfortable ride and good value of the price that we paid

but this TrailBlazer Activ is already the best, most comfortable, sharpest car I've ever owned.

Drive is very comfortable, plenty of interior room, great looking exterior.

I am really impressed with all the features that come with the vehicle.

interior

Exterior is super  (its what got me to look at it), interior is fresh and nicely done.

inside is great I like being high up in the seat better then a car.

The design of the car catches your eye and makes a statement, and the interior design and comfort are unmatched by any type in its class.

Bottoms of inside as well as up the inside top as well.

2021 Acura RDX

Sleek and sporty design - turbo charged engine, all wheel drive.

Great acceleration from 4 cylinder turbo.

Great driving car with really good power with the turbo and Sport driving dynamics.

Edgy styling, ultimate comfort inside, handles effortlessly, good pick up for a turbo 4 cylinder (coming from a V6 engine car), perfect size if you don't want to go as big as a true SUV,

The RDX does not feel like a Compact SUV.

The car is peppy, comfy and the audio system is STELLAR.

Found that the comfort,  styling (externally and internally), performance and handling and price with options offered as standard provided the best in the vehicles we had considered.

I'm 6'2" and this car is extremely comfortable.

Stylish, fuel efficient, good handling and comfortable.

After about a week of driving we mastered the touch pad and the transmission shifts seamlessly while in comfort mode in city driving.

Car is roomy, comfortable, has lots of storage space and overall fun to drive.

It is a very comfortable car and is everything we were looking for.

Very comfortable seats that I have in the Advance Package.

It is so comfortable to sit in and drive.

The infotainment feature does take time to acclimate use,

I opted for a Standard level as it included everything I deemed essential and some features I would have thought available only with a higher echelon, such as leather upholstery which was really important to me.

This is a beautiful car and love all the features.

It’s stylish, comfortable, and has any option you would ever need.

As much as I liked the rest of the vehicle features, it was so bad I am unlikely to purchase any Acura that uses it.

The car is everything and more , great ride and lots of nice features , good handling , and lots of get up and go ! !

It has many safety features, lots of amenities, and is fun to drive.

I am pleased with the ease of handling and the smooth ride.

We felt the RDX had the best ride and most quiet engine especially under heavy acceleration.

Very stylish, nice looking and riding vehicle.

The ride is smooth and there is plenty of power.

This vehicle is miles  above the Honda CRV I have been driving for years..So happy I bought this car the ride is awesome, smooth all the extras you could want.

2021 Hyundai Kona

It has get up and go without even being a turbo and the gas mileage that my wife and I have achieved in this car on the highway is close to 36 miles to the gallon 😊😊😊😊😊

The  Turbo is super quick and you can add on performance upgrades like Front upper strut and rear strut bars , larger rotors and pads for additional structural performance and make the car a beast !

It's really great if you're looking for a sporty cool looking compact suv.

there are hardly any blind spots, it’s very spacious for being compact, and it drives soooo smooth.

It has a lot of features for a compact SUV and gets great gas mileage.

This car will meet all my needs and has a lot of options.

It has lots of convenient features, remote start, back-up camera and apple carplay, in SEL trim, and is roomy for 6'-1" tall man.

There are a couple of new features that we are enjoying and so far we love our new purchase.

I also love all the safety features on this vehicle.

..well that had the lovely auto start/stop feature.

Many of the features on this car are thousands more $ on other makes.

Great feature to help keep eyes on the road.

The vehicle is very sleek, highly technological and extremely comfortable.

..and their drivers seat is about as comfortable as sitting on a cardboard box in a railway car.

This is my first new car and I love it ❤️Very comfortable and stylish great gas mileage a very comfortable car to drive I get lots of compliments

Infotainment system, comfort and safety is number one .
