Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.
1.6i (107 Hp) 4WD Automatic Verdict:
Performance Verdict
Performance is slightly hampered by the added weight and drivetrain losses of the 4WD system, making it feel less sprightly than 2WD variants.
Fuel Economy
With 8.2 l/100 km combined, this is the least fuel-efficient option, a trade-off for enhanced traction in adverse conditions.
