Pros
Fuel Economy
We hit 30 mpg. About double overall from the 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee we had.
Dashboard
The display is great. All the indicators for oil change indicator, tires air, air filter % use, GPS, phone, and etc.
Cabin Noise
It is quiet. Better than other recent vehicles I have had or test drove.
Cons
Power
Has decent acceleration. It is a 3 cylinder turbo. Important on start up, and shut down. Turbos get hot. Start up idle for a couple of minutes to get oil flowing through turbo. Turbos get hot. Before shutting car off idle for a couple of minutes to let oil cool turbo down, or oil bakes.
Cargo Space
Just a note on cargo space. Vehicle is what it is in size. Has plenty of cargo space for my wife and I. If you don't like the cargo space, buy a bigger vehicle.
Weather Versatility
Ours is a FWD which works well. No problems in snow. There is a 4WD version if you want it. I avoid the 4WD because I don't like the long-range expenses of repairing it. I had 4WD on our Jeep Grand Cherokee. Had to rebuild transmission, and 4WD drive shaft before 120,000 miles.
