How serious is the oil consumption?

Hello there,

I’m sure it’s a big topic on this forum so i hate to be another, but it’s been something i’ve been seeing pretty frequently with consumers. Majority, from what I’ve seen, say it’s a good vehicle on the other hand. Others say don’t touch it.

I’m referring to years 2020-2024 btw, as that are the years i’m shopping.

Are there model years that are better? Some say 2020s are good and that it gets worse the newer you go. Some say 2020s are bad and the 2022+ are good to go.

Side note: Why the heck do these sell so cheap? I’m literally shopping a 2023 (basically brand freaking new feeling/looking) with 14k miles for $23,540. With this brand, comfort and feeling (especially a compact SUV with 3rd row capability) i would figured that year and price alone would be closer to $28-29k.

And it’s Certified Pre-owned which is a huge steal.
