James Wong drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Punchier than every similarly-priced rival
- Big car feel in a compact package
- Well featured, no cost options
Misses
- Range is decent but efficiency is not
- 20-inch rims make for a firm urban ride
- XC40 is the more practical choice
