Our emergency handling tests include pushing a vehicle to its limits on the track and in our zigzag emergency avoidance maneuver. Turning circle is the bumper clearance needed to make a U-turn. Ride judgments assess ride comfort under normal and full load. Convenience and comfort scores assess cabin noise under normal driving conditions as well as driving-position comfort. Cargo volume is not measured on pickups since height is unlimited.
Maximum load is as specified by the manufacturer for the version tested.
We give seating judgments and measurements for all seats. Front leg room is the distance from the heel of the tester's accelerator foot to the seatback. Fuel economy numbers come from our measurements using a precision flow meter and are rounded to the nearest mile. Cruising range is calculated based on CU's overall mileage. These data are derived from annual surveys of Consumer Reports ' subscribers, covering experiences with more than 500,000 vehicles.
