We rented this for basically a one-day trip to deliver Zander to Warren Wilson College for his junior year. Unfortunately I didn't think to take a photo.

Overall, we were pretty happy with it. I'm making notes about 6 weeks after the actual rental, else I would probably have more to say.

Ignition is press-to-start.

Plusses

• Both rows of passenger seats can be easily folded down into the floor to make cargo space.
• 12v cig-lighter outlet in the back -- this was useful for our powered cooler.
  • The power to this outlet stayed on even when the ignition was off, which was also nice. (Hopefully power is cut if the battery starts to get low?)
• Media center has a USB-media socket (apparently this is standard now). It was able to play FLAC files.
• Dual cig-lighter outlets and dual USB-power outlets in dashboard
• Control center UI was well designed.
• key fob has control for opening/closing rear hatch
• rear-view camera when in reverse
• GPS was easy to use / intuitive
• front speakers located high up in door, for clearer audio

Minuses

• One of the cig-lighter outlets was dead. I replaced the blown fuse, but it just blew again, so apparently there was a short somewhere. Not clear if this reflects a car design/quality problem or just a maintenance issue.
