the motor very zippy-the interior comfy and overall look is really cool
Least favorite feature:
the AWD performance was very disappointing
Advice to buyer:
test drive the AWD in the snow before you buy
Detailed review:
We bought our Torrent NEW in 2006--I like the general look, color and the interior is comfy--great little zippy motor with lots of power--BUT the AWD is the WORST EVER--we have had other AWD vehicles that went like tanks BUT NOT THE TORRENT--we live in snow country and I have been stuck more times than I can count and when the AWD kicks in for no reason it throws the car sideways in the road--this is the first vehicle I am afraid to drive in the winter it makes a great summer car but I got the AWD for the winter months! Considered buying a Trailblazer then and now we are trading our Torrent in on one before winter comes again!
Also considered:
2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee
