I drove one as a rental. It's good. Steering is weighted at moderate speeds and light at parking speeds. Pedals have some weight to them, engine is responsive, transmission even downshifts quickly.

Gears are WIDE with the automatic but it didn't hesitate to accelerate or feel sluggish even with all seats occupied. It doesn't have any sort of manual shifting or MPG readouts like upper level cars. The upper trim is pretty basic anyway but it has the essentials. Too bad they're rare with manual in upper trim. Might have made a good fuel saver around town.

The front end noise is loud at anything but low speeds, eg <35mph.
