Value for money is its strong point...
Avoid the 3-cylinder petrol and the 1.3 mjt 95 hp — far too little to move 1,500 kg, very sluggish in acceleration.
The only and excellent compromise is the 1.6 mjt2 131 hp; despite weighing 1,500 kg it moves it with plenty of ease and verve (9.5 sec 0–100 km/h), giving real satisfaction.

This is one of the most beautiful cars of our time, in an era when every brand churns out cookie‑cutter models — as long as they look like an SUV. It's comfortable, incredibly spacious, picks up nicely on the road and always makes a great impression everywhere ;)
