Trim selection also changes the starting MSRP and cargo figure behind the rear seats. Comparing the five trims helps clarify whether the Premium’s $40,795 starting point or a higher-priced configuration better fits the intended budget and equipment priorities.
Daily driving patterns matter in Thornton and the surrounding Denver suburbs. A vehicle used for commuting, family errands, winter travel, and trips toward the foothills should be considered alongside seating needs, fuel type, cargo requirements, and the way towing capacity fits into regular use.
