(change model)
A sturdy car with four airbags as standard, ABS, brake assist and electronic stability systems, it is built with safety in mind. Security as standard is an immobiliser and interior protection alarm.
The load area is easy to access and can be quickly expanded thanks to split/fold rear seats; as large as its main rivals. Interior storage is good.
