Ride and Handling
Car is well balanced and deceptively light on its feet. You can haul family and friends around and nip at the heels of more expensive and less practical sports cars once the roads get twisty. Ride is on the rougher side, but the car is extremely surefooted in all conditions.
Styling
It’s a Mini! Everything follows the same design language, and is just a fun car to look at, fun to be in, and even more fun to drive.
Cargo Space
For the size, it does very well. Keeping in mind that the car is around the same size as a Volkswagen Golf, the rear seat passengers get good amounts of room, and trunk storage is adequate for 4 people from SF to Las Vegas. I can sit behind myself in my driving position at 6 feet tall, although my knees don’t have too much wiggle room.
Fuel Economy
This car is very underwhelming for city fuel economy. Driving only in Eco mode for a city commute yields about 23 miles per gallon. Although on the highway, limited to about 70-75mph, I have seen 35-38mpg average, which is excellent. Just wish it was better in and around town
Visibility
The split rear doors mean there’s a thick bar in the center of your rearview mirror, and the rear quarter windows are almost useless as well. Also, above a certain height, because of the distance of the windshield and roof, it can become difficult to see traffic lights without bending down to look up at them.
Power
Not too bad of a con, but people think that the “S” badge means it’s quick. It’s not. Don’t get me wrong, the car isn’t slow, and in fact it’s quite a zippy experience in town, but don’t expect to be blown away by the acceleration past 40.
Power
Ride and Handling
smooth ride and easy to maneuver

Power
Very quick accelerations when you need it.
Cargo Space
WAY more space than you would think for such a small car.
Interior Space
Plenty of room, even for tall people.
Ride and Handling
Suspension is not set up for rough roads, drives like a sports car.
Visibility
The car is small. On a busy hghway with trucks, car is not as visible as a bigger vehicle.
Cabin Noise
Noisier than a larger car would be.
