“Luxury at its finest” is what automotive critics have published. “This car is good-looking, well-powered, and an impressively mannered four-door…” stated by the Associated Press.
The list of standard features on the front-wheel drive vehicle is lengthy including a rearview camera, navigation system, and 18-inch wheels. If you guessed Toyota Avalon or the Buick LaCrosse you would be mistaken. In addition to the Avalon and LaCrosse measuring up; this vehicle comes standard with a free telematics system which among other things, it can save the parked car’s location and help guide the driver back to the vehicle via GPS after a day of shopping, weeklong vacation, or business trip.
Its generous warranty program provides powertrain coverage for 10 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first as well as limited basic warranty coverage for five years or 60,000 miles. Roadside assistance last for the same five years or 60,000 miles.
Are you thinking Cadillac? Think again.
At first glance after looking at the headlights, onlookers were surprised that this vehicle was not a BMW. As they viewed the rear end of this slick machine; they were shocked that it was not an Audi either.
Besides the attractive styling, a luxury vehicle has to handle great too. Right? This car is more than 16 feet long, so how would it take potholed city streets, winding country roads, or even gravel or dirt roads? Don’t you need a SUV to enjoy a smooth ride?
This transport carrier dominated the highways, and because it uses independent MacPherson struts up front and an independent multilink setup in back there was no jolting or unnecessary road noise in the cabin. Are you thinking Lexus? Now you are grasping at straws.
Although the motor vehicle comes standard with the usual safety equipment like eight air bags, traction, electronic stability, and hill descent control it also has other nice safety features as well. Some of these amenities are the side blind spot monitoring and lane departure warning.
If you are thinking you would be traveling in a Yukon, you would have made another wrong guess.
With federal government fuel economy ratings for this model being 19 miles per gallon in city driving and 28 miles per gallon on the highway with an average 22 mpg; this efficient test car averaged better than 24 miles per gallon during a range of 445 miles on a single 18.5 gallon tank. With that much time not having to make continuous pit-stops at the gas station; it is very nice to have all of the controls and buttons in perfect location to operate. Not to mention, the Infinity radio; this has an eyebrow-raising 550 watts of power, 12 speakers and surround sound which is all standard. Nope! It is not a Mercedes either.
OK, one more clue. Let’s talk about pricing. Are you thinking $45,000? With all of these options you are probably expecting a $55,000 sticker price. What if I were to tell you this beautiful, powerful, high performance vehicle’s base price is around $20,000 cheaper than its luxury counter-parts. That’s right. Estimated prices for a 2014 model are estimated at $34,000 to drive it off of the show-room floor.
