Fuel options centre on efficient 1.5-litre petrol engines, naturally aspirated or turbo, paired with manual, IVT or DCT gearboxes. Claimed figures reach 20.6 kmpl on the turbo DCT in tested cycles. A 1.5 diesel with strong low-end torque appears in select markets for further efficiency.
Servicing follows a straightforward schedule with engine oil and filter changes at 10,000 km or yearly intervals under normal conditions. Air filter, cabin filter and other items follow longer intervals, keeping routine costs predictable for a compact sedan.
Safety starts with six airbags, electronic stability control, ABS with EBD and ISOFIX as standard across grades. Higher trims add Level 2 ADAS including forward collision avoidance, lane keep and following assist, blind-spot collision avoidance and smart cruise. The model earned a full 5-star Global NCAP rating for adult and child protection.
Daily ownership benefits from a 528-litre boot, 60/40 split rear seats, smart trunk release on higher grades and connected features via Bluelink. Regular dealer maintenance preserves the warranty and keeps the car reliable for city and highway use.
