Throttle tip in was very abrupt but can be adjusted at the dealership (electronic throttle)
Access to third row seat is a bit tight
With 3rd row up cargo space is minimal
Long legged second row passengers can feel a bit cramped on long trips
Sliding doors are easy to operate
Seat height, even for the inseam challenged is great
Relaxing to drive
