1.8 (141 Hp) Automatic Verdict:

Rating 3 stars

Performance Verdict

Adequate for daily driving and relaxed cruising, but lacks spirited acceleration, especially when fully loaded. The 5-speed automatic can feel dated.

Offers average fuel consumption for its class and power output, not particularly outstanding but acceptable for a naturally aspirated engine.
