Key figures

Where it sits in the range

It sits in the lower half of a 35-trim range, which is usually where the balance between price and equipment is at its most sensible.

This is a manual trim. It is the cheaper of the two gearboxes and, in most ranges, the more efficient one on paper.

Running on CNG

This is a factory-fitted CNG trim, so the kit is covered by the manufacturer warranty rather than a retro-fit. Running cost per kilometre is substantially lower than petrol, the trade-off being boot space taken by the cylinder and a filling network that is still uneven outside the larger cities. It makes sense above roughly 1,200 km a month.
