Before you sign for the MPV
NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 47 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, service brakes and seat belts; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
The numbers in plain words
Its 2.6L 4-cylinder drives through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 37 litres, from its 12.4 L/100 km rating. In money, 1,000 km costs about $192.20 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles.
How big it is
It is the kind of vehicle that makes a family trip calmer.
Best uses
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
A longer test drive
A week with the MPV answers more than any brochure. Rent first, buy later: a week with the MPV answers the big questions. Rent the MPV first, and buy only if it fits your life.
The cost of driving it
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.22 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Which one to look for
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Over to you
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
Rent it for a week before you buy
