• “The faux wood-grain interior trim looks like it came off a prison lunch tray.” — Los Angeles Times
• “The high driving position makes it feel more like an SUV than a car, nice and high up, with wonderful outward vision.” — New Car Test Drive
• “We do expect that eventual owners will wish for a little extra midrange torque for passing at highway speeds and climbing grades, particularly when carrying a full load of family members and luggage (we had neither with us during our brief test-drive).” — Edmunds.com
• “...the Montego turned out a bit bland...” — MSN Autos
• “The car honestly felt like one that would cost in the low- to mid-$30,000s, yet was priced about the same as a Toyota Avalon, one of its closest competitors among the imports.” — Cars.com
• “Voluminous trunk can hold eight full-size golf bags.” — Consumer Guide
• “The interior has 107.5 cubic feet of passenger space, which is huge - especially when you consider that the exterior of the car is almost the same size as most of the popular midsize sedans.” — Cars.com
• “It's not the car to buy if you're looking for entertainment...” — Edmunds.com
• “Good balance in turns, with only moderate lean, despite relatively tall body.” — Consumer Guide
• “These are good-size cars, with a wheelbase of 112.9 in. and a length of 200.7. But what's more important is the class-leading interior room, that huge trunk and the flexibility of a 60/40 split/folding rear seat.” — Road & Track
• “Some may find the interior layout a bit bland, but there is something to be said for going the simple route, especially when the controls are large and easy to use.” — Road & Track
