- Reliability (3)The five-cylinder engine is generally robust, but the model is prone to nagging electrical issues and deteriorating interior plastics over time.
- Maintenance (3)Maintenance is more expensive than Japanese rivals, requiring specialized synthetic oils and specific European parts that command a premium.
- Technology (2)Extremely basic by modern standards; it offers a simple CD player and auxiliary port, but lacks any advanced driver aids or integrated navigation.
- Comfort (4)Front seat passengers enjoy massive headroom and supportive seating, though the rear seats are cramped and the ride can be a bit stiff over potholes.
- Dynamics (3)While the 2.5L engine provides decent torque, the car feels heavy and shows significant body roll during spirited cornering due to its aging PQ34 platform.
