I've almost had it a year and it's truly powerful on the road, very stable — the driver aids make me feel super safe. In the city it moves around very well and the fuel economy is notable. I use it both on highways and in town and it's genuinely useful.

Very nice car with plenty of interior space. Reliable engineering and, thank goodness, most functions are still operated with switches or knobs. It sits superbly on the road, although the standard Michelin Primacy 4 tyres produce a somewhat loud rolling noise. As a day-registered car in Elegance trim for €26,980 with zero kilometres, a real bargain. Honda and Toyota are absolutely equal in build quality and reliability. You can buy it without hesitation.
