Great all rounder, surprisingly spacious cabin. Rapid and refined. Not quiet enough space in the boot for a bike, could use more ground clearance.

The little-known Japanese: versatile and very roomy, in the tradition of the old MPVs sacrificed on the altar of stupid SUVs.
And when it comes to the competition, there’s no contest between a reliable Honda powertrain that really consumes what it promises — even less at times — and a pure all-show PSA unit that drinks far more fuel than advertised.

Fast, dynamic, very versatile. Boot just adequate but interior space excellent, even for people taller than 1.90 m. Fairly quiet and quite frugal on fuel. Sturdy and very reliable. Downsides: brakes and suspension noisy during manoeuvres, engine effective but noisy under acceleration. If driven with a bit of care, it's not hard to reach 30 km/l in town.
