Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

It is the best car I've owned but I have tried the all electric Niro and wished I had wanted for that as it is superb. However, the all electric one doesn't have separate climate control for passengers or a sunroof and, of course, only has half the mileage range. Having said that, I rarely travel more than 200 miles a day so that isn't really a problem.

How reliable do you find the car?

It hasn't given any problems at all. All the extras work well, heated and cooled seats are wonderful and the sunroof is great for getting extra ventilation in Covid-19 days!

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

The lane departure warning is great on motorways but less so on rural roads where there are no white lines for it to locate.
