 This is a 5-speed A/T. Mileage to date is 22K. We purchased this car as new. The only major problem encountered so far was on the rear brakes (factory defect) when about 3K miles. Longest trip was from Georgia to Ohio (500+ miles) with 3 adults, 1 child, and lots of baggage. With a combine load of about 800lbs, we traveled for 8hrs, 60- 80mph on highways. Fastest trip was for 2hrs, 70-90mph with 2 adults and a child. Acceleration from traffic stops, uphill and passing is slow. Combine mpg is about 30. A/C, heater, steering, braking, controls are fine. Enough spaces for front seats but cramped for 3 at the back. Overall, pretty good economy car for lower end buyers and small family.
