This review applies to the GT version; cheap glossy plastics in the interior, lack of physical, dedicated climate/vent controls, narrow trunk width. On the plus side, excellent suspension that soaks up all the bumps, especially on gravel roads.

It won't wow on long highway blasts, but for shopping trips and short commutes it's a clever, affordable alternative to a full-size car — proof that you don't need a giant wallet to get where you need to go.
