A buyer's checks

Reading the spec sheet
It is powered by the 1.5L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 23 litres, from its 7.6 L/100 km rating. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $35.34 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Size and space
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. The EPA measures its luggage space at 311 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Rent it for a week first
A test week in the Summit tells you more than any review. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Picking a year and a trim
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$2,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.78 in fuel.
