Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Good, but not exciting.The engine lacks character and has to be revved hard to really get performance out of it. It is quite frugal for this type of car. It handles very well. NVH is a little high. Seats are not supportive on longer journeys.
What's it like to park?
Easy, great visibility and reversing sensors.
