Quality, Smooth Quiet Ride, Fun Acceleration, Useful and Useable Tech
In the Limited trim there is enough new Tech that it took a minute to find and configure the vehicle to our needs. Once done though, the safety and drivability tech has proven easy to use and great to have. We especially like that key audio and climate controls retain dedicated buttons, however, since they are touch screens rather than buttons, it can be distracting to put your finger in the right place. Some sort of texture or other clue would help. Blind spot monitoring is comprehensive with HUD, mirror, dash, and audible cues to avoid mistakes. Lane keeping is mostly unobtrusive and finds the right position. With lane keeping on, signalling a lane change results in what seems a somewhat abrupt move toward the selected lane. Seat comfort and custom positioning are good. Rear hip and leg room work for 3 adults on shorter drives. Storage behind the rear seat is a bit limited for this size car due to range improving batteries taking up space beneath most of the floor. Regen is just OK with fiddly controls. After four months, I’m still not entirely comfortable with it. It has four levels of regen. Increasing regen using the left paddle seems to hold back acceleration. Quickly tapping the left paddle increases the regen setting, while holding the left paddle temporarily increases regen to improve deceleration. It is too easy to inadvertently change your desired regen setting when that isn’t your intent.
