How it scores for you10 scores
Affordable rear-drive purity with a dependable, simple powertrain — the price is a loud, firm cabin and rear seats fit only for luggage.
Reliability82

Recalled far less often than cars of the same model years; none of its 3 recalls were serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted +3 points for its wider reputation.

Safety50

Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.

Running costs33

About $3,000 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 33% of cars we track.

Cargo & utility20

6.9 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 20% of other coupes we track.

Passenger space15

2+2 rear seats are token; best treated as a two-seater with a parcel shelf.

Driving fun91

Light, balanced RWD coupe with superb steering; a perennial critics' pick for affordable handling purity.

Tech32

Basic small touchscreen, no modern driver-assist suite; bare-bones by 2017-2020 standards.

Comfort30

Stiff ride, loud cabin, thin seats; refinement was never the mission.

Value retention55

Typical resale value for a coupe.

Capability0

No published tow rating; front- or rear-wheel drive only.
