Perfect size, great power!

The newest car we've owned before this was a 2008, so the tech in this Kia really is impressive to us. T/C, Stability control, back up camera, bluetooth, etc., etc. On top of that it is roomy, quiet and 290 horsepower strong! It really does hold 7 in reasonable comfort and still drives like a car. It is a great value for the money. We love it!

Best all around vehicle owned yet!

We looked at this vehicle first for room inside for transporting grandkids. We don't put a lot of miles on it but having a reliable, safe, economical and roomy vehicle like this in all kinds of weather is a major plus. It has great capabilities in the snow/ blizzard my wife was forced to travel in never having a wheel slip, great all wheel drive! I would highly suggest this car for any climate. Very comfortable and stylish interior with a leather stitched dash that really makes it rich looking. No third row seat but the back is cavernous for hauling a lot of things, two strollers, groceries and diy project. Love the Titanium Gray paint with a great finish that looks like an upgrade. Great family vehicle for two years now!

Great overall large car with third row seat

I like this car and I looked around a lot at models with a third row seat. This offers plenty of legroom in the third seat...enough for an adult, not just the kids. The interior looks luxury. Everything is great about this car so far (had it a year) except here are the negatives: cup holders aren't large enough for sports bottles second row seat is HEAVY when returning it to an upright position from using it as a flat cargo space...they NEED to put an automatic spring in it to help the person lift it. As a woman, it is really hard from me to lift it up and you need both hands for sure. Those are my only two negatives. ;-)

Lots of room

Great pick up and easy to tow with. Has a lot of leg room and comfort . Really wish it was all wheel drive....that is my only downfall with this car

Got Soul

Peppy little/big car. Great value for your money. Awesome gas mileage, tons of room and overall a really cool car. Never thought I would purchase this car, and now know it was the best decision for our family!
