The Kia Xceed builds on the fantastic Ceed hatchback, raises it's ride height, adds fastback looks and some funky styling, and there you have it a Kia Ceed SUV.

Suzuki Ignis Hybrid Review

Details

Published: Thursday, 13 May 2021 19:53

The Suzuki Ignis a quirky ultra compact SUV, with a lot to love.

We have the SZ5 AllGrip meaning we have the top of the range model with 4x4 and some fancy extras too, one being dual camera brake support.

It's a fun vehicle with a Khaki paint job and accents in black and the roof. It's versatile, practical and relatively well equipped and with the uprated hybrid it's more economical and punchier to even though it has a smaller, engine.

It handles well and power is good, however it can be loud underload, economy wise, Ben couldn't get it belowe 50mpg. 

£18,399 on the road, a bargain.
