What were your needs when you bought this car? Has it fulfilled those needs?
My requirements for the car were 7 seats, powerful engine, ability to tow, large boot for dog.not diesel. Car has been great fulfilling all the requirements.
What were your initial thoughts about the car? Tell us why it appealed to you.
I liked the looks of the car, but also had a better feature set than its competition. We compared with Toyota Highlander, Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Sorento. Mazda offered. Best value for money in the budget range we were shopping.
What have you discovered since owning the car?
It is very refined and the 2.5 ltr turbo engine is powerful and quiet. It is large inside and can easily seat 7 adults.
What do you like/dislike about the car?
Like: Adaptive cruise control Heads up display Large Boot size Long distance comfort Easy to drive Dislike: Access to 3rd row of seats is tricky No apple car play in this year model Engine stop/start technology is slow to start up
Any other comments on the car?
Did extensive research when buying this car and think it was the best family 7 seater SUV under $50k at the time. Probably still one of the best 7 seaters SUVs (excl luxury European models) although model needs update now as 6-7 years old.
