The seats fold down to open up 69 cubic feet of space, although the surface is not perfectly flat. Rear access is nifty. The Liberty's rear hatch opens sideways away from the curb for convenient loading, and the upper glass portion automatically opens at the same time. The glass can also be operated separately by the remote control. The Liberty runs on regular gas.
Handles have satisfyingly large grips.
Rear side windows go all the way down. To open a window, you have to bump your passenger's arm out of the way. Shifting in and out of 4WD low takes brute strength and a little luck. A dashboard pushbutton would be a huge improvement. There is no locking, concealed, storage.
