1.2 (83 Hp) Verdict:

Rating 6 stars

Performance Verdict

An entry-level, naturally aspirated engine that feels underpowered outside of urban environments. Acceleration is leisurely, requiring patience.

Fuel Economy

Decent economy in city driving, but can struggle and become less efficient when pushed hard on motorways due to lack of torque.

Best Use Case: Strictly city driving, short commutes, budget-conscious buyers.

Pros and Cons:

Cons:

  • • Interior materials can feel a bit basic compared to rivals
  • • Entry-level 1.2 (83 Hp) engine feels underpowered
  • • Handling is competent but not engaging
  • • Some rivals offer more advanced infotainment or driver assistance features
  • • Rear suspension is dependent, not as sophisticated as some competitors
