Switched from a different brand. 10.1 l/100 km economy is better than I expected. Comfort is top-notch, great seats. Planning to keep it for a long time.

Ordered it immediately after a quick test drive. 10.1 l/100 km efficiency is surprisingly good for this class. The infotainment is fast and lag-free. If you are thinking about buying one, go test drive it.
