Perfect size and choice for our small family. The 354 Hp @ 5500 rpm. hp feels more than enough for daily driving. Suspension handles bumps and rough roads very smoothly. If you are thinking about buying one, go test drive it.

Bought a used model in great condition last year. 12.6 l/100 km economy is better than I expected. The infotainment is fast and lag-free. Definitely a solid choice in this price range.
