How it scores for you10 scores
Sharp styling and big-screen tech near $22k make it a budget standout, though the 137-hp three-cylinder and FWD-only layout cap its ambitions.
Recalled about half as often as cars of the same model years (over-the-air software recalls count half); none of its 2 recalls were serious. About 6% of its owner complaints describe a crash, fire or injury. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $2,150 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 67% of cars we track.
20.7 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 35% of other SUVs we track.
Good rear legroom for the class, but the coupe-like sloping roof trims rear headroom.
137-hp 1.2T three-cylinder is slow; light and tidy around town but strained on the highway.
Standard 11-inch touchscreen with wireless CarPlay/Android Auto is generous at this price point.
Stylish cabin and decent isolation for the money, but budget bones (torsion-beam rear) show on rough roads.
Luxury brands like Buick tend to lose value faster than average.
No published tow rating; front- or rear-wheel drive only.
