Driving it
What's it like to drive?
EASY! It's slightly wide for my tastes but it's the price I had to pay for a roomy interior. It's a pleasure to drive and very economical. It is not the fastest car to drive but I can live with this. For real accelaration engine needs to be revved hard.
What's it like to park?
A breeze. Parkin sensors really help out. Parked in tight spaces without problems.
