In their own words
This was the first hybrid car I've driven and I won't be buying another one until there are no longer any other options. It's well-built and equipped but has a number of flaws. The boot space is very small for a medium-sized hatchback, I found the touch screen system for e.g. blower fan adjustment a bit fiddly, but the worst thing was the CVT transmission; could just be a personal thing but I disliked the fact that the noise from the engine seemed to bear little correlation to your road speed or acceleration.
It's a fine choice if you need a medium sized, reliable, economical urban vehicle but I'd strongly recommend a long test drive in all road conditions before deciding whether or not it's for you!
How reliable do you find the car?
No faults but I only had it for four months.Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
I needed it for a mix of driving; it's excellent around town but I really did not enjoy driving it on the motorway, noisy acceleration and didn't feel powerful enough when joining the motorway.About their car
