DerekACS, the seats were fine, there are so many adjustment options, I adjusted it a few times during the trip and I think I've found the most comfortable spot now.

Just wanted to post a quick update to my ownership experience so far:

I drove the car back from Vancouver to Edmonton yesterday. I still got around 9 L/100 km or 26 MPG on the trip...I was driving pretty fast and uphill through the Rockies all the way.

You can really tell the differences between Eco, Comfort and Sport modes, and it definitely
affect the throttle response and steering feel.

The car easily accelerates to some very high speeds and it is super easy to pass cars. I was passing 3 cars a time at some points.

I did encounter some snow and heavy rain and the car did tell me a few times that its radar sensors are dirty (especially after driving behind a semi for several km's). I am not sure where the sensors are or how to clean, but I think they're sorted out now and just get confused with the heavy rains I encountered.

The temperatures did drop below 0 degrees as I approached the Alberta border and I did encounter some slushy snow. The car is very confident in these wet and snowy conditions even with the all seasons on.
