Are smaller SUVs only for millennials? - Boston.com
I have seen some new small SUVs, some that I like are the Chevrolet Trax, the Jeep Renegade and Honda HR-V. My answer is buy the vehicle you like, regardless who it is marketed to. I recently drove the Chevy Trax and was impressed. The Trax was easy to get in and out of, but the seats got mixed reviews I found them to be reasonably comfortable my wife hated them and found them to be too short and generally lacking support. The other vehicle in that category that I drove recently was the Honda HR-V. The HR-V like the Chevy was also very versatile, returned great fuel economy and handled surprising well. I would rate the Honda HR-V as slightly better than the Chevy Trax. I haven’t driven the Jeep Renegade yet but all reports are favorable. The car sits in a very hot garage in the summer months, so we are concerned about tire dry rot. The front tires were purchased seven years ago, and the back tires must be over nine years old if not older. The tires look okay but we are concerned about possible blowouts, what should we do. . A. The service life of a tire is not. Source: www.boston.com
