Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

PROS
Comfortable, practical interior
Very competitive list prices
Good roadholding and smooth ride

CONS
Entry-level model is lacking desirable extras
Petrol models feel underwhelming
Interior is functional rather than special

By: 
parkers.co.uk

Among the most complete family cars you can buy for sensible money. As compelling in 2021 as it was when it was launched in late-2016.

PROS
Versatile cabin,
aggressive pricing,
quality cockpit and tech

CONS
No electrified version yet

By: 
topgear.com

Pros
Perky optional plug-in hybrid powertrain,
futuristic appearance,
well-equipped from EX trim up.

Cons
Base powertrain is pretty poky,
buzzy engine sounds under heavy throttle,
not as fuel efficient in our testing as last year's model.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Smooth and quiet ride quality
High fuel economy
Spacious seating and cargo area for a compact car

Cons
Slow acceleration
No option for all-wheel drive
Can get unsettled when driving over bumps or around turns
