Its monocoque body construction plays a great role in safeguarding the passengers during an impact, whereas the engine immobilizer prevents any risk of theft. Along with these, it has child safety locks on rear doors, anti slip clips for driver side floor mat and central locking system for added protection.
Verdict:
If space is taken into account, then this variant offers good room for all passengers. Even the tall passengers wont face any difficulty when seated in the second row. The highlight is definitely its impressive fuel economy, which is the best in its class. However, it has a few drawbacks as well like limited security and comfort elements. If your priority is better performance, looks and mileage then, this machine is definitely be a good buy.
