  • Driving it

    3 out of 5 3.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Very easy to drive being an automatic and all the controls and light and easy to use. The only let down is the notchy automatic gearbox, but this does to an extent monitor your driving style and you can smooth out the automatic gearbox by knowing when the gearchange is about to take place and knowing when to ease off and on the gas. The manual mode is very useful.

    What's it like to park?

    Easy, especially with parking sensors.
