It's a good reliable little car, but even though it looks somewhat spacious, it's almost cramped now that we have 2 kids. We certainly can't take anyone else with us in the back seat between the two car seats. The back hatch is also a poor design - it stopped responding to our keyfobs and there is literally no other way of opening it on that year - 600 repair later they ripped open the whole door to get at the mechanism to fix what seized. Our year was the first it came out, so perhaps it was fixed on newer models. It gets good gas milage, which is a big plus, and that repair was the only one other than fairly normal wear and tear.
