Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Thoroughly livable ride,
vast configurability,
multiple advantages over the Jeep Wrangler.

Cons
Interior skews more farmhand than fancy,
exhaust note doesn't live up to the excitement of driving one,
epic wind noise on the highway.

By:

Pros
Dapper exterior design,
multiple parsimonious powertrain choices,
driver-assistance features come standard.

Cons
Entry-level engine sounds coarse,
too much cheap plastic cabin trim,
unexceptional driving character.
