• Transmission: 4-speed automatic or 5-speed manual (manual versions featured low-range gearing).

• Acceleration: 0 to 60 mph takes roughly 8.8 to 10 seconds depending on the transmission.

Pros & Strengths
• All-Wheel-Drive Traction: Widely praised for its stability and grip in heavy snow, rain, and slick surfaces.
• Visibility & Packaging: Great 360-degree windows, easy step-in height, and an airy cabin feel compared to top-heavy traditional SUVs of the era.
• Car-Like Agility: Uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension that drives more like a nimble family wagon than a truck
