What’s hot
- Smart styling stands out from the people carrier crowd.
- It’s bigger on the inside (than the last model).
- 105g/km of CO2 for such a big vehicle is impressive and reaps big benefits for company car tax and road tax.
- Headline 70.6mpg economy good for reducing fuel costs.
- Flexible seating allows nine foot loads or six passengers.
- Handling is safe if uninvolving while ride quality pretty good.
- Equipment levels for the most part are high.
- Excellent and clear navigation and infotainment system.
- Surprisingly high standard of fit and finish.
What’s not
- Styling is bold and may not be to everybody’s taste.
- Some plastics in lower parts of the interior are rather hard and brittle.
- ETG6 semi-auto gearbox option is notchy and slow.
- Automatic option only available on thirstier 150PS engine.
- Performance levels won’t set any pulses racing.
- Roof rails and parking sensors absent on lower spec models.
