This model performs considerably well off road though it is limited due to its ground clearance. The shorter height does provide for a lowered center of gravity making rolling less likely, allowing for better cornering and speed. The feel of the ride reminds drivers of a sedan experience. The horsepower is 165 on all models with four-wheel strut suspension. Off-road performance rivals more proven names. A recurring issue involves failure of cylinder head gaskets, which can lead to overheating. The repairs involved are not substantial.
