I would highly recommend this vehicle to any commuters looking for a good value vehicle. This is not a car that offers a ton of bells and whistles. It is not a luxury vehicle. Rather, it is more of a utility vehicle. I have driven it to work every day for 4 years, plus weekend driving and occasional road trips. It has 70,000+ miles, and the only problem I have ever had is a dead battery. It is built well, no rattles or squeaks after many years of driving. It handles well in small amounts of snow and rain. It cleans up easily, both interior and exterior. It is not a large vehicle, particularly the trunk. I once attempted to fit a large painting in the trunk, and it would not fit. It is comfortable to sit in for long periods of time, making it ideal for longer commutes.

I liked the look of this little four-door hatchback from the start. It has very clean lines, and the rear door handles are recessed to give a clean line to it. The LTZ model has a real nice interior, and the cabin is well designed. My personal favorite thing about this car is the turbo. You can feel the difference when trying to merge into traffic or have to pass someone. It handles well for a small car also. The On Star is a added bonus. The price was very reasonable also.
