Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Pulls well but you need to switch off eco mode when climbing hills otherwise you'll end up flooring the gas to overide it. Some criticism in reviews of roadholding, yes it can lean over abit but be brave, go for it and it grips well.
What's it like to park?
Smallish car so no problems as exterior mirrors give good visibility.

Interir space and ride height.
