Driving it
What's it like to drive?
The car is very comfortable to drive around town where most of my travel takes place. The Hybrid system can take a bit of getting used to when its your first one.
What's it like to park?
It is easy to park. The rear view camera is a boon. The overlay display lines even allow for parking the correct distance from the kerb (Saves scuffing the alloy wheels).
