New model, very comfortable cabin with highly adjustable seats, decent legroom for front-seat passengers and plenty of headroom. What you’ll notice most is the quietness: The engine itself is impressively muted, there is absolutely no wind noise even at highway speeds, and the road noise through the tires is hushed. It’s an astonishingly serene driving experience for a compact crossover, evidently the beneficiary of trickle-down design and technology from its bigger SUV brothers in the Mercedes-Benz showroom. Steering is heavily boosted, especially at lower speeds, but still stable and well-controlled, especially as speeds start to climb.
