The vehicle is well equipped with safety features. Fuel economy with it being soft hybrid is good. Handling is good and driving comfortable.

Things have been changed with the engine from the previous model which are disappointing: the turbo doesn't come in at high speeds which nearly caused an accident when trying to move out of the way of an HGV that suddenly pulled out on me on the motorway, I put my foot down and nothing much happened. I believe that this is to do with saving petrol. The 6 gears and reverse are cramped into the space of 5 gears and reverse which makes gear changing needing more thought. My husband who has had an automatic for over 20 years won't drive it. The off road capabilities are better than my previous model but in no way are as good as all my previous suzukis with a low ratio gearbox on board, this will be another petrol saving thing. In all the car is good to drive and has a better turning circle than the previous model. I wish it had the turbo kick in at high gears and a low ratio gear box, but I believe these are petrol saving adjustments and would probably be the same on other makes of vehicles.

It’s road handling in the wet is not good. It has no reversing sensors and it has an annoying rattle on the dashboard.

Nice to drive but -: very small inside struggle to get 3 adults in the back seat, even 3 teenagers. 2 childrens car seats take up all the back seat as well so can't fit another adult or another small child in the middle. If 2 people sit in the back the sensor bleeps as if there is someone sitting in the middle with out a seat belt, we'll annoying. I'd say it's more of a 4 seat person car than 5. I have to slam the boot to make it shut constantly.

Cost a month I would say is a little over in comparison to my previous lease, which was a Renault Captur. I know I didn't have Sat Nav in this car, however for the price a month, I would have thought Sat Nav could be included. As a daily motorway driver it does use a lot of petrol. But overall, its a nice car. Thanks!
