The CVT isn’t bad, like stated, and much better than Nissan’s CVTs. I still enjoy driving the car. Fuel economy isn’t bad either, but it’s a turbo, and we know how that can lead to a heavy foot.
I have started to notice how it will stay in a “lower gear” at times, keeping the rpms up, when it’s not needed. The annoyance of it is all me because I pay attention to things like that. My wife doesn’t even notice. But other than that, no other issue.
