The media has blown a lot of smoke over the last few months over Calboni's new Station Wagon. It has stiff competition though from market leaders like the Washington and even the bottom feeders like the 7456. Does the Glaze live up to the hype? Find out more below!

The day started right when I was picked to drive the Calboni Glaze on the track. The Glaze is a is pretty fast for a Station Wagon. Its 122 hp @ 4348RPMs 4778 cc I3 engine response great and is the perfect size and power for this vehicle. It left a smile on my face when I was able to top it out at 95 mph. And then on the drag strip I was able to crank out a 24.215s 0 to 60 mph. Some may have their doubts, but the Calboni Glaze is a fantastic track Station Wagon. When it comes to driveability, we wished that all the roads in the world were straight. Sadly they're not, it is unfortunate that the Calboni Glaze could not handle like its Station Wagon peers. In no way can I recommend this vehicle for anyone who drives on the road. It is an accident waiting to happen.

When it comes to comforts and luxury, the Calboni Glaze isn't going to win any awards. It barely meets what you need in a vehicle. The seats are hard and uncomfortable for long trips. Features are a little barren, but it has the basic necessities. Material quality leaves a bit to be desired. We would not pay a premium price for this interior finish, but if you're looking for A to B transportation, it is almost tolerable.

Amazingly spacey the Calboni Glaze can bost 45 cu-ft interior and cargo space. This vehicle is massive compared to most. It's one of our top choices when it comes to practicality.

The Calboni Glaze was made by below average workers, using below average materials, for a below average company. What do you expect the vehicle quality to be?

The Calboni Glaze is not exactly dependable. It won't last a million miles, but it will get you down the road. Do expect a few issues over the lifetime of the vehicle. But most are fixable.

At this point in testing we would normally take the Calboni Glaze out on the roads. However our test driver barely made it out of the parking lot before running out of fuel. The Glaze's ghastly 14.3 mpg means you'll need to take a few jerry cans, scratch that, a few barrels of fuel just to make it to the grocery store.

While being safe is important, Calboni did not believe it was a priority in the Glaze. The vehicle does provide enough safety features to be consider average for its class. It does not add anything more than that however.

Overall the Glaze is a borderline acceptable vehicle. Calboni did the bare minimum amount needed to make this Station Wagon worthy of consideration. Sure, it falls flat in many areas. But it does do some things well. We would still consider this car below average and would only recommend it to consumers who are interested in it.
