Reliability
This is my 2nd Ch-r and I absolutely love this car. My first one was a 2019. I traded it in and missed it so much that I had to find another one. I love the way it looks, drives, and the fact that it’s a Toyota makes me confident in its reliability. I wish Toyota kept making them. I will never get rid of this car. I love it.

Ride and Handling
everything about this car from the cool contour of the body to the cool blue interior molding and piano black dash.
Cargo Space
the cargo area is somewhat smaller than I like.
Reliability
Considering it’s a Toyota, I know I’m going to get some great mileage out of it with very little maintenance.
Value
I feel like I got a really reliable, versatile car for the price I paid for it. More spacious and stylish than a sedan style car.
Fuel Economy
Since it has a 4 cylinder, it has awesome MPG for a crossover. On long drives, it gets around 35MPG which is great for the fact that it is slightly larger. City driving still sees a respectable 28-30 MPG
Technology and Entertainment
The Apple CarPlay in this car is starting to show some issues. It is an earlier model, so there is still a USB A connection for the CarPlay, connectivity has some issues from my iPhone16. The screen is also a little lagging for a 2021. I’ve only had this vehicle for 3 months and have had issues with plugging the USB in the port and getting the infotainment system to respond or connect at times.
Power
On the flip side, it being a 4 cylinder, it doesn’t have a lot of horsepower for the increase in weight you’re carrying (versus a Corolla). Though the MPG can be good on steady drives, the torque on this car leaves much to be desired. I never drive my cars really hard, but this one seems to need it from 0-45 MPH.
Dashboard
Requires a lot of flipping through menus while driving to get other types of information or switch between Eco, Normal, or Sport modes

Great driving, great fuel economy,
