Practicality rating: 3 out of 53.0

Written by Parkers Published: 6 June 2019

Driver, passenger and side airbags on all models. Abs too, but no NCAP rating. Standard alarm / immobiliser plus remote central locking across the range and the stereo is a unique-fit item.

Like the passenger accommodation it depends what you’re comparing it to. Next to a Golf, it’s fine, against a Mondeo, it isn’t enough.
