TCC’s Bottom Line

Think of the 2017 Honda HR-V as a Fit with all-wheel drive and a little more headroom. It's not as fun as it could be, but it makes a lot of sense.

Feeling like a modern, but not as rugged incarnation of the classic '80s and '90s Jeep Cherokee, the Jeep Patriot is a simple crossover that makes a decent budget choice.

TCC Likes

Perky body
Clever Magic Seat offers great flexibility
High level of standard features

Boxy exterior reminds us of the old Cherokee (in a good way)
Pint-size dimensions are great in town
Decent off road

TCC Dislikes

Won't win a drag race
So-so safety scores
Lacks some safety tech

Interior is tight and dated
Surprisingly mediocre fuel economy
Awful CVT
