Good little city car
by RicoSellsCars on 3/13/2026 8:50:21 PM
I bought this vehicle used and have owned it 8 months. Its been a great compact city car. I drive it about 10 miles a day on city roads. It rides smooth over bumps and gets decent gas milage 30MPG combined. It fits a fullsized car seat in the back seat easily. I am 6'2 and feel like I have alot of room in the driver seat. Tons of head room. I would suggest this to anyone looking for a small suv!
