In the list of car flaws, in the first place is cheap hard plastic, which is scratched even with minor mechanical damage and creaks periodically. Some note an uncomfortable clutch pedal, quite long and uninformative. Drivers have to adapt to it, because at first it is difficult to catch the moment of operation. Among the minuses can be considered a small car trunk.
