One of the nicer cabins in this class,
turbo engine adds excitement,
satisfying ride-and-handling traits.

Cargo area is tight,
worse fuel economy than many competitors,
turbo engine limited to priciest model.

Sporty-looking bodywork,
spacious inside,
generous cargo room.

plasticky interior materials.
