45-50mpg, nice modern tech, and it looks great now. It’s a win. I did see a photo of the XSE with a black lower grille instead of color matching and I thought it looked wayyy better. With that little Change, I’d get one as a daily
Without the tu-tone roof treatment that XSE is a looker! Plus Toyota really brought it with the additional HP, available AWD, available pano glass, and standard rear air/heating vents. If only they would have changed up that exterior rear window line to make it at least seem "all new".
What's interesting is that most people, myself included, don't like new designs when they are introduced. However, after a few months, opinion generally shifts to more positive. I was pretty lukewarm on the new M2, until I saw it in person.
