Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: A spacious interior, comfortable, enough space on back benches. Conveniently located necessary controls (buttons, knobs). Smooth driving. Despite negative section, which will be written, I am very pleased with car, and only time will tell.
Cons: Slow a burst of speed for its fans. Consumption, while new, does not meet readings, could be all 10L/100km. Driving cruise, and deceleration, again pressing:" going back to previous rate ", a long think.
