More expensive city cars can boast a better-looking interior, but Charade’s is simple, easy to use, with some attractive touches. There are some user-unfriendly features, like hidden electric mirror controls, but the interior is comfortable with plenty of visibility.

At speed and on the motorway, engine and wind noise become an issue.

Wide doors make it easy to get in and out of.
