Pros & Cons

Pros
  • Sharp, aggressive styling offers a strong road presence
  • Longest in the segment, translating to generous cabin space and legroom
  • The new platform and revised suspension deliver a comfortable ride quality
  • Feature-rich from the base variant itself
  • Strong safety kit offered across the range
  • Well-laid-out, practical cabin with easy-to-reach controls
  • Wide engine lineup: 1.5L NA petrol, 1.5L turbo petrol, and 1.5L diesel
  • Great driving experience with German-styled dynamics and handling.
  • Has top-class safety standards with 6 airbags and 5-star GLOBAL NCAP ratings.
  • Comes with strong build quality and brilliant driving dynamics
  • It has almost every feature in the segment. These include ventilated seats, wireless charging, and connectivity.
  • Both engines are powerful and have decent fuel economy.
  • The 1.5L TSI EVO motor gets cylinder de-activation technology for enhanced fuel efficiency.
  • The boot space is decent in numbers but has great space and practicality.
Cons
  • The diesel automatic lacks excitement behind the wheel
  • Top variant misses premium features like an electric co-driver seat, powered tailgate, and rear seat ventilation
  • Turbo-petrol misses a proper manual gearbox option
  • The new design is a bit polarising and may not appeal to everyone.
  • The cabin space could have been improved and seating 3 passengers in the rear can be a tight fit.
  • The plastic quality could have been improved on some panels.
  • The suspension setup is on the stiffer side which filters in potholes and bumps at slow speeds.
  • There is no diesel or hybrid option on offer.
  • It misses on Highline TPMS.
