This car retails for very little money so I was skeptical about it at first. It seems very small and lightweight but can surprisingly hold its own with bigger cars and trucks on roads and highways. The car is really spacious inside. The seats move so I can fit my 6ft tall self into the car comfortably.The steering wheel also adjusts. I like that the controls on the car are for the most part very easy to use. The clock is simple to set for DST and back and the radio channels are easy to locate and preset. The volume control in a turn knob which is great for driving instead of pushing a button over and over again. I do not like that the lights are hard to turn on and off. The car also does not signal when the lights are on and the ignition is off. I have left my lights on for hours with no help from the car. This car starts easily and is very silent. My mother tends to forget it is on sometimes. The pedals are perfect distance so my foot does not get trapped between the gas and brake like some other cars. The gear shift is easy to read as well. I have never accidentally put my car in a gear in didn't mean to. i have done this with other cars before. The car has accessible cup holders and slots even a place to put your parking ticket stub to retrieve later which I thought was great. The back seats also slightly fold in to allow for mor storage but not a lot. The seatbelts tend to get stuck at the most inconvenient times which I do not like. This car s not for anyone who has anything to ship or move on a regular basis. Or anyone who does not like manual doors and windows. This car does not have a sunroof, I wish it did. This car is so not for very large people or carrying more than 2 or 3. It really feels too full. I dont have any memorable moments with this car yet but I hope to. This a great reliable car!
