Hello. We're considering buying the 2014 RVR to replace our Mazda MPV. Pluses on the RVR are its tight dimensions vs. all other SUVs, which is very important to us as our parking arrangements require a smaller vehicle. We're considering the 2wd SE model with CVT. We took it for a test drive in town, and the reputed buzzyness of the motor and lack of power wasn't as bad as I'd read on reviews. However we haven't yet tried it on the highway.

What are the general thoughts here on the RVR vs. the below alternatives.
