Most comfortable car that I have ever had.

Plenty of leg room, excellent experience with driving the car, great experience with the Sales Associate that I worked with in getting my car. Everyone at The Greenbrier Dodge Dealership was extremely helpful and courteous with Me and My Husband. I highly recommend this Dealership.

every nice car. Very good on gas

it is very economical. Great on gas. Comfortable seating. I like the sun roof and backup camera. Plenty of leg room. Plus the back seats can lay down for hauling larger items.

Alot of Bang for your buck!

The gas milage is alright. I wish it was alittle better... The power of the csr is okay but not amazing at a dead stop. But the interior and the connectivity of the vehicle is Amazing. All thr bells and whistles this car has to offer for price is Incredible.

Love it!

Love the car! I never thought it would have all these little features. Side ground lights, red soul on the door jam. Great fuel economy.

Good for my Soul

This car meets all my needs that I was looking for. I wanted a crossover that had everything my previous vehicle had and got better gas mileage. I also wanted something that was better in ice and snow. The Soul gave me just what I was looking for. I didn't need anything more than the base model and I got a little more than I was expecting.

Lowest cost for maintenance

Roomy, great for tall person. Handles good, decent gas mileage. I have the car over 3 years, have had the ball shocks changed and routine maintenance. That's all
