Reading the spec sheet
The 4.7L 8-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
By the EPA's combined rating of 18.1 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 54 litres. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $84.18 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$5,150 a year for 15,000 miles.
Inside and out
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
A good match for
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Try before you buy
Rent first, buy later: a week with the LX answers the big questions. A test week in the LX tells you more than any review. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$5,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $280.60 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Choosing the right one
Within the 2001 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
