Matt Campbell drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Far more liveable than many other new cars
- Plug-in hybrid powertrain's EV range is excellent
- Improved suspension calibration makes it a keener drive
Misses
- Styling mightn’t be to all tastes
- Not as enthusiastic to drive as some rivals
- Smaller boot than competitors and no spare wheel
