The salient features

The interior has got many things you cannot resist to appreciate. But be very clear in mind that you are going inside a beginning trim. The layout is logical for the driver and the passengers. There are the luxury and the good quality of materials utilized. There is a sporty character in the cabin which makes it compliant to the purpose of its built.
The space at the front is good and not that bad at the back also. But as it is a small car range you have to compromise for it a little if you are a tall person.
