How it scores for you10 scores
Honest, five-star-rated basic transport with a bulletproof reputation — cheap to buy, cheap to run, and utterly devoid of excitement.
Reliability75

Recalled about half as often as cars of the same model years; none of its 9 recalls were serious. About 14% of its owner complaints describe a crash, fire or injury. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted +8 points for its wider reputation.

Safety100

5-star overall NHTSA crash rating (frontal 5, side 5, rollover 4).

Running costs78

About $1,850 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 78% of cars we track.

Cargo & utility0

15.6 cu ft of cargo space — among the smallest of the hatchbacks we track.

Passenger space35

Subcompact hatch; front is fine, rear tight for adults.

Driving fun30

Light and tossable in town, but 106 hp and a dated driveline make it strained at speed.

Tech20

Bare-bones kit; advanced screens and driver aids are largely absent.

Comfort30

Budget-grade noise, seats, and ride; honest but austere.

Value retention55

Typical resale value for a hatchback.

Capability0

No published tow rating; front- or rear-wheel drive only.
