On the right track, but...
With the tech package the vehicle reaches the basic level of functionality I would expect most modern cars to be at. I find it annoyingly frustrating the tech functions are an option, and even other basic items like floor mats have to be bought separately. It's a great way to antagonize customers, and it's one of the reasons I likely won't recommend this brand. That kind of marketing sleight of hand is not what I'd expect on a 45K vehicle. Other problems arise only in display menu organizations and layouts of the interior. My next most important personal gripe in layout is that the front seats don't recline much, the sensation almost as bad as in an airline seat. You can get a couple extra degrees removing the head rests on the back seats when they're folded down, but it's a big hassle for not that much gain. That leads to another big issue for me: when folded down, the seats don't create a flat surface...super annoying If you use the SUV to haul items. I ended up building my own rear deck which is just a flat plane. The final gripe is with the display system: (1) they use old fashioned touch screen tech which makes it hard to press options, (2) The GPS menus are badly designed making me wish they had simply created a GPS system which I could upgrade using apps from a third party vendor who specializes in GPS, like Garmin, (although even their designs aren't ideal, just much better than Hyundai's); (3) Why are there just 5 POI folders, and why can't one make their own? Why can't they be nested?; (4) The other super annoying problem are all the meaningless legal notifications which can't be turned off after you've read them once. Instead of a dumb battery discharge warning which cycles endlessly, just put in a battery meter and let owners turn off all the built in parasitic loads on the power system! Why can't the no-display option be the default? I ordinarily know there are private roads on a route and never need to be notified of it even if I don't know. It's idiotic to classify shopping mall drive lanes with that legal nagware about private routes. All these absurd dialogue response boxes are making the tech twice as dangerous to have in the car, especially since they use the old fashioned stiff respose touch screens, making it difficult and dangerous to interact with the displayof .
