CarWale's Take

Good Things	Proportionate looks Chauffeur-driven experience Fun-to-drive	Powerful engines. Balanced ride and handling package. Feature loaded M-Sport trim.	Incredible cabin space Powerful engine Comfortable low-speed ride
Could be Better	Narrow middle rear seat Equipment not standard across models Lucrative options not on all trims	Limited boot space. Explosive flat-six motor not on offer. Confusing instrument cluster.	Poor resale value You get bigger SUVs or luxury cars at this price Not as much fun to drive
