The numbers in plain words
Its powertrain is the 3.5L 6-cylinder with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Who it is for
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
The Terraza in everyday use
It is the kind of vehicle that makes a family trip calmer.
A longer test drive
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A week with the Terraza answers more than any brochure. Rent the Terraza for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
Which one to look for
Within the 2006 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.22 in fuel. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
