This car is an absolute dream! It rides so beautifully and comfortably. The features are crazy…cooling seats too! Love it. It’s in immaculate condition and inside looks almost untouched. I just wish it had a remote start! But I honestly didn’t use it much anyway!

That mix helps it feel like more than just a practical family car, since it brings together design, engineering, and equipment in a way that makes the segment look especially competitive.
