Model/Year:

2009 Toyota Matrix 2.4 S AWD

General experience:

This brand new Toyota Matrix 2009 is much faster than the old model. It’s got a better engine and accelerates well. The car is easy to handle, no matter what is the surface and the weather conditions. It used to be a slow car but the 2.4 engine and AWD really makes it perfect. I’m a tall guy 6 feet 5 inches tall and most cars for me are not comfortable to sit at. Toyota Matrix is designed the way to be comfortable to any driver. The seats are easy adjustable and the space in front and back is enough for overweight passengers. As I used to drive the old version of Matrix I can say that the new one has a much better safety and additional options, like ABS, stability control, additional airbags system. All my family members feel safe in this car. The music system installed is JBL, which is premium class music system that performs A+. I really enjoy it very much. The additional convenience is the installed by manufacturer blutooth. So far I love everything about my 09 Toyota Matrix and I can recommend it to everyone.

Pros and cons:

+ Great engine! Good safety, good controls and ABS, that performs in any conditions well, even in snowy winter. Perfect sound system and additional features are very pleasant.

- It’s not quite enough. No bike rack offered by manufacturer.
