Got this as a rental - normally don't write these up but I liked this one so thought I would. It's a 2023 with 53k miles (and it shows). I think it's the Premium Plus trim - has leather, heated/cooled front seats, heated rear seats, sunroof, HUD, adaptive cruise. Only option it doesn't have is the tow package or the turbo engine.
Interior:
Overall, I enjoyed it.
Pros: The ride is excellent, smooth but not mushy and the handling is great. It's not BMW sharp, but still, much better to drive than an Equinox/Terrain or an escape or Rav4 (driven all of those recently). Very quiet on the highway. The AC works great as do the cooled seats. The refinement and equipment for the price (like $37k MSRP) are impressive.
Cons: Power - but the turbo would solve it. I had the 2.5T in a Mazda 3 rental earlier this year and that had some pep to it. Otherwise, my only complaint is no panoramic sunroof and the infotainment. I get some people like the iDrive thing, but at least make it touch screen too - like BMW does. In my wife's X3 I like having both options. The knob was also coming unattached from the center console, but probably just rental abuse.
Also for fun, put it up on ramps to test the flex. Of course, it'll never flex like my Wrangler, but it made it up easier than my old KL Cherokee did or my Rene Trailhawk did, kept all 4 on the ground, and the front has as much flex as the rear, so it stayed relatively flat.

Well done.
