Official combined consumption sits at 5.1 l/100 km with 116 g/km CO2 for the Cross. It suits short urban trips. longer motorway runs demand patience as acceleration to 100 km/h takes nearly 15 seconds.
Servicing follows a 30 000 km or 24-month main interval. Oil and filter changes occur more frequently under city use. The mild-hybrid system adds little extra complexity beyond a conventional petrol car.
Safety kit is comprehensive for the class and standard across the range: six airbags, autonomous emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, traffic-sign recognition, driver drowsiness detection and rear parking sensors. Cruise control joins them on the Cross. No recent Euro NCAP score exists for this update.
Day-to-day living is simple. Compact size and light steering ease parking. Plastic body cladding on the Cross resists scrapes. The 225-litre boot expands to 870 litres with the rear bench folded. Expect low running costs if intervals are kept.
