2024 onwards (change model)
Parkers overall rating: 4.3 out of 54.3

What we like

Entertaining and agile handling with a super-responsive sledgehammer of a hybrid system. Practical and potentially much cheaper to run than its predecessor if you plug it in.

What we don’t like

Its adaptive suspension isn’t clever enough to disguise the weight in Comfort mode and it’s still thirsty with a flat battery. Not enough physical buttons inside for key functions.
