Well built, excellent standard equipment great warranty terms, unquestionable vehicle build quality reliability is exceptional. Performance from the 1.6 litre turbo engine is making easy work on the open road.
What have you discovered since owning the car?
It’s far better than our previous RAV4 all around a better vehicle especially on rougher roads we see in New Zealand.

Excellent AWD system great on rougher dirt roads with excellent ride quality. It’s a bit thirsty doing around 9L per 100km’s but one holiday we did over 2,000km’s in great comfort forgiving the fuel consumption.

All the fruit of a European vehicle at half the price with excellent build quality
