Our test model was a distinctive lime-green color that was easy to spot in a crowd of cars. It was very comfortable on the highway and on several short road trips. Judy commented about how attractive and functional the interior was for the driver and passengers. This is not a luxury vehicle, but it is very road-worthy and useful for day-to-day purposes.
