I viewed the video earlier. I'm highly annoyed they keep bringing up the HUD issue while wearing polarized sunglass... this is the same case for EVERY HUD car enabled out there. Literally took me 10 minutes to master the presets of the steering wheel control, same time it look my brain to memorize the exact location of the volume **** to be able to reach it without needing to look (if I want to instead of the volume button on the sterring wheel). I guess these influencers needs something negative to bring up about the car and these are the only ones they can come up with.

Well, it is a problem that didn't need solving. They should offer the base model steering wheel and have the capacity touch as an option an all models.

Nice! Looks like it passed that trail with flying colors, although I kept wincing when it came to huge ups and downs.

And yeah, Consumer Reports harped on about the same things (HUD and polarized sunglass, as well as unmarked steering wheel buttons). Other than that they had no problems with it

I love the HUD and use it all the time. Also am fine with steering wheel buttons and the ability to customize them

My major gripe is the fact the 2nd row seats don't go flat when folded.

And yeah may need to take this pricey thing someday off pavement
