BASE PRICE RANGE: $35,200-$39,000*
WHAT'S NEW: Largely carryover, the sporty RWD/AWD compact EX (base/Journey) crossover gets revamps to various option packages, adds heated front seats to AWD models, Bluetooth to Journey trim, and USB/iPod inputs to all versions. Navigation becomes a stand-alone option, also with new features, while the Bose Package gains the Around View Monitor.
BEST BUY: Available---and more-affordable---navigation upgrade makes the already well-appointed "base" EX an even more compelling choice.
SUM UP: Style still trumps utility.
