To my consideration, these stats aren't a problem for a daily driver unless most of your driving is on highways. Mine isn't. All that torque is available while you're tooling around town or when crawling over rocks. If anything, that extra torque would make the H3 a better vehicle for both town and offroad.
As far as for highway duty, it would take a big dose of hp to overcome the brick-like aerodynamics we all love. Besides... who needs a speeding ticket?
