Pros and cons
What’s good
- Raw 300 hp WRX turbo performance (2.0T): 0–100 km/h in 5.5 seconds with 400 Nm torque.
- Practical 561 L estate boot: Carries massive family luggage while delivering sports car speed.
- Sub-2,000 cc KRA duty advantage: 1.6T, 1.8T, and 2.0T engines qualify for 25% excise tax rate.
- Stunning minimalist exterior design with flush door handles.
- Sub-2,000 cc tax bracket advantage across major engine lines.
- Cavernous 673 L cargo capacity.
What’s not so good
- 145 mm ground clearance: Mind steep estate speed bumps and rough unpaved roads.
- Requires 95+ octane high-octane petrol: High-strung DIT turbo engines demand premium fuel.
- Touchscreen controls require familiarization.
- Firm ride on 21-inch R-Dynamic alloy wheels.
