REVIEWER CONSENSUS
4 published scores. One common scale.
HEADLINE VERDICT
Big space and equipment for the money, with refinement still catching up.
Australian reviewers agree on the roomy cabin, strong standard equipment and sharp pricing. The Premium is the efficiency-led choice, while the Performance adds serious pace but exposes more of the ride and body-control compromises.
PROTOTYPE GARAGE
