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

In their own words

This is my 3rd Hyundai. (Before that I was a Volvo devotee.) All of them have been very good and totally reliable but this one is my favourite so far. Very comfortable, spacious and quiet ride and feels very safe to drive. This model is very high tech with lots of semi autonomous driver assistance. I particular like the adaptive cruise control. The light grey leather interior gives the car a real premium look and feel.
If I had to make a criticism it would be my a slightly disappointing average MPG. It is 42.5 over the life of this car with a good mix of urban and motorway driving.
This is the self charging hybrid version. The change over between EV and petrol dive is hardly perceptible but I note the the EV mode indication kicks in much more on local journeys than it does on motorways.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

Delivered on every front apart from a slightly disappointing MPG.
