Driving it
What's it like to drive?
The Auto gearbox, combined with the combination of petrol engine and electric motor make it a dream to drive. Comfortable cruising on the motorway and on long drives. Around town is ok, but not the swiftest....
What's it like to park?
It comes with Parking Assist, plus a rear view camera. However, so far I have not been brave enough to use the Parking Assist - just the camera so far.
