Pay Attention
- Pre-2016 models use the older platform with less sophisticated dynamics that feel dated compared to the TNGA version.
- CVT gearbox can feel sluggish with delayed responses during acceleration affecting driving enjoyment.
- Road noise is noticeable on rough surfaces with tire roar intruding into the cabin at highway speeds.
- Interior design on early models looks dated with plain styling that lacks the premium feel of competitors.
- Hybrid variant has a smaller 360-liter trunk due to battery packaging reducing cargo capacity significantly.
