somewhat less pleased with the 2016 than with the 2011
I traded in my 2011 for the new model. Mileage is better! It did 39/mpg from Portland to Missoula. However, I find the steering wheel less comfortable on the hands, and less responsive it seems to me. The seats are less comfortable (they seem shorter and harder) and at times the air in the cabin seems stuffy, and I can't find a way to freshen it. In addition, I find the center console "bin" (between the front seats) is located too far back to be reached easily. I do not like how the center console has been changed. I am also not fond of the front dash design compared to the 2011. These are small things, I suppose, but comfort, especially in the driver's seat on long trips, is important to me.
