It drives with more poise than you'd expect from a people carrier, serves up practical touches and flexible seating for everyday chaos, and still looks good when parked outside the school gates.

Great cars: comfortable, elegant — it has style and reasonable engine power.
A price that makes the competition pale. With a long-range battery, it lets you cover long distances.
And on top of that, made in France.

The family car par excellence: a big boot, three equal and adjustable seats in the second row, two extra easily accessible seats, an engine that’s more than adequate... everything is excellent except for the slightly high price.
