NHTSA gave the 2019 model multiple a 5-star overall safety rating, making it the perfect family vehicle for soccer moms across the US.
The last changes for this generation came in 2020 and 2021. The first of which being dual-zone automatic climate control being added. The second was the addition of the standard 12-inch infotainment screen. This infotainment screen now comes with wireless phone connectivity. While 2020 was good for added features, it also removed the CD player on the model. While this won't affect most drivers, if you’re one who enjoys physical media, this is something to keep in mind.
