Braked towing capacity is 1800 kg on most models, rising to 2200 kg on some engines when fitted with the optional towkit, with unbraked at 750 kg. Payload is around 419 kg depending on specification. The estate layout with power folding rear seats and low load height suits everyday hauling and light work duties without special heavy-duty options noted as standard.

Service interval typically every 12 months or 10,000 miles/16,000-30,000 km depending on market and conditions.
Petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid powertrains available across the generation.
Fuel use varies by engine. Diesel versions are efficient for long-distance driving while petrol models use more. Plug-in hybrids allow short electric-only trips when charged.
Servicing follows a time-or-distance schedule of roughly yearly or every 10,000-20,000 km/miles. Oil and filter changes form the core of regular visits, with longer intervals for items such as spark plugs or timing belts on relevant engines.
Safety kit is extensive and mostly standard. City Safety handles auto braking for multiple threats. Additional systems include oncoming lane mitigation, run-off road features, SIPS side protection, WHIPS whiplash protection and a full set of airbags. The 2017 Euro NCAP result confirms strong crash performance.
Keeping the car involves following the service indicator and using synthetic oil to the correct specification. The structure and electronics support long-term reliability when maintained on schedule.
