So far I have no complaints about this SUV. I love how smooth the break system is. The look of the exterior and interior are amazing. The seats are comfortable and I love that it comes equipped with Apple car play and android auto so I don’t need a cord to connect it.

Cabin is a bit noisy, wished the S line had the blind spot indicator like the higher models. Had it for a week and it’s actually okay for what I need it for.
