Had one of these 2 weeks ago as a rental car.
It has a 1.5 turbo engine that gives out somewhere around 160bhp.
Pros: it was economical on the 500 mile round trip I made in a day, returning 34mpg combined in heavy Silicon Valley traffic and 80mph interstate runs.
Engine pulled well over 60mph too.
It synced with my phone and played whatever I wanted over the reasonably good sound system.
Also quite spacious, probably Mondeo sized, certainly felt bigger than a Focus.
Cons: suspension was bad. It bumped and jumped over every undulation on the road but handled ok.
It had been respected a good bit too, suggesting a front end collision sometime in its 11,000 miles.
I wouldn't buy one, or choose one for long term driving.
