Worth knowing
- It is heavy, so performance and handling are modest, the trunk is small, and the infotainment feels dated.
The trim we'd park in our garage
The Premium trim adds front parking sensors, forward collision alert, and a heated steering wheel; the 2017 and later Sport Touring adds distinctive wheels and trim.
On the test drive
Cycle the power soft top fully and check for water leaks and wind noise around the side windows. Get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report before you buy.
Safety tech
