4/5 Very Good 310 views

This car looks unremarkable at the first glance, but the interiors tell a completely different story. The interiors are very spacious and you can easily fit your entire family without any problems. What I love the most about this model is that the headroom in this car is fantastic. This has been a problem for me and my family because most hatchbacks have terrible headroom in the back. Having said that, the other nice thing about this car is that the performance is reliable and the build quality has undeniable quality. Would happily recommend this car to others.
