This is a great family car. It is very good in the snow. At the press of a button you can engage four-wheel drive, otherwise It's front-wheel drive. It still gets 20 miles per gallon. Four-cylinder engine has good power. Huge storage space. Big trunk area, with an extra storage compartment underneath. The back seats slide forward and back to extend rear seat leg room or make more trunk space. It also has a roof rack. Tire mounted on the back so it doesn't take up interior space. It consumes a bit of oil between the oil changes, so keep an eye on the oil level. The trunk door opens towards the curb not away, so loading or unloading while parallel parked can be tricky.
