I liked the addition of the 'under the radar' section. It made a good point about good cars that aren't as popular.

My family has all Hondas now. My dad had a 2008 Honda Pilot that lasted quite well until he bought a 2019 Honda Pilot. The 2008 Pilot is now safely in my uncle's care and has take him and his wife from PA to GA multiple times. It's still going. I started with a 2016 Honda Pilot that was a lease and I loved it so much when my lease was almost up I upgraded again to a 2017 Pilot. I went down to FL with that Pilot and ended up with a 2019 Pilot that I now own. I haven't had any issues with my car nor has my dad had any with his. I've driven to FL multiple times and I love my car. My brother and daughter have Honda CRVs. We are truly the house of Honda. I don't see myself in anything else at this time.

The Kia Seltos is another alternative to the HR-V. Doesn't ride as nicely as my wife's 2018 Crosstrek, but I find the seats a little more comfortable and it has plenty of cargo area. Rides similarly to what my Soul did, perhaps a little smoother. The FWD version (available only in the S Trim) surpasses most competition in terms of gas mileage rating. Haven't had mine long enough to see how close it gets to the rating though.

Surprised not to see the Kia Seltos somewhere on the "under the radar" section. Fantastic small SUV with great mileage, and unlike the Kona which is more like a hatchback than an SUV, it has great ground clearance, suspension, and makes fantastic use of its interior space. It feels way bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside. Absolutely loving mine so far!

The Kia Telluride & Ford Edge Is Best Choice For Me

I own the Hyundai Kona for in-city daily use for almost 2 years. My review for this so far is Excellent in energy efficiency, quiet, quite spacious, great safety options and incomparable costumer service. My husband owned the Ford Fusion for 6 years then traded with the Mazda CX-5. No regret!!! Mazda feels more sturdy than Kona because it’s a bigger car I think. We both are big fans of Hyundai and Mazda.

I LOVE my 2018 HR-V.... Maybe because I have a rare 6 speed EX. More power would be nice, but i recently got nearly 44mpg on a 252 mile drive.
