Pros and Cons
- Pros
- Cons
- Styling. Low, sporty and all things fun! M Sport variant looks delicious.
- Punchy engines. Pick the petrol or the diesel, both promise to please with performance.
- Quality. Interior now feels like a scaled-down 5 Series in earnest.
- Funky styling still gets attention. Lots of modification potential too!
- Playful chassis and steering makes it quite a hoot to drive.
- New features such as cruise control and coloured MID make it a better package.

- Silly feature omissions: 360° camera, keyless entry, Android Auto - all missing.
- Low seating and tight kneeroom means it’s less than ideal for the chauffeur-driven.
- Most of the 480-litre boot is taken up by the spare wheel.
- Pricing is woefully close to the Baleno, a car that offers more space and better quality.
- No significant design changes. Doesn’t look like a new model.
- New safety features are limited to the AMT variant.
