Overall rating

3.5 out of 5 stars

Likes:

  • Surprisingly spacious for front and rear passengers
  • Relatively soft suspension setup means comfortable cruising
  • High seating position gives improved view
  • Stylish interior uses creative shapes to great effect

Gripes:

  • Versions without the TwinAir engine lack sparkle
  • Interior plastics and finish quality fall short in some areas
  • High sides make it more susceptible to crosswinds than conventional superminis
  • Turning circle could be better
