What other CUVs should we be considering?
Looking for a new CUV, non premium/luxury. My wife is very short and feels more comfortable in them. Initially this will be our only car so we both have to like it.
Test drove the Crosstrek, RAV4, and CX5.
Crosstrek: Disliked CVT, underpowered, crappy steering feel
RAV4: I enjoyed it but wife felt it was too big
CX5: My wife liked it the most, but I felt it was trying to be sporty when it truly isn't - for example the lack of side bolsters had me falling out of the seat when taking an on ramp.
My wife is very comfortable with a Rogue since she's familiar with it already as a previous family car but I'm hesitant based on CVT plus general Rogue hate.
Trying to avoid the CRV due to the oil dilution issue.
Are there any vehicles we should be considering? Or should I just go with a CX5 and call it a day.
