Saw this in Car and Driver... some varied similarities to the Vibe/Matrix... a little costlier, but seeing alot more of these vehicles coming in the next model year.Link: http://www.caranddriver.com/xp/Caranddr ... lander.xml

Interesting looking, but I still like the Vibe better!

140 hp in a AWD SUV i bet that engine doesn't last long....better stick with the road side service cause they'll be needing it

It's about half a foot longer and 800 lbs heavier, so this may be good for ride and durability at the expense of economy and handling. It looks like the interior uses nicer materials than the Vibe (hey its got carpets in the back!) and comes with a leather upholstery option.I have an aversion to Mitsubishi engines, since I have found myself stuck behind smoky Chrysler minivans with Mitsu engines far too often.
