SR Features

The SR adds paddle shifters and sports seats. The available SR Premium package ($1,200) adds a moonroof, heated front seats, and heated mirrors. Otherwise, it has the features from the S and SV trims, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, an 8-inch touchscreen, blind spot monitoring with rear cross traffic alert, remote start, forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection, and more. See our S vs SV comparison for the full list.

The SR trim also has a performance variant, the SR VC-Turbo, with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder. With regular fuel, it produces 236 horsepower and 267 lb-ft torque. With premium fuel, those numbers go up to 248 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque.

Platinum Features

The top-tier Platinum trim is the cherry on top. It has a standard surround-view parking camera system, as well as adding a memory bank that remembers settings for the power-adjustable driver’s seat and outside mirrors. And like the baseline S trim, the Platinum only comes in drivetrain: AWD.
