Excelente RUV and no repairs after 10 years
by JuanPS on 5/7/2026 9:55:25 PM
2016 was an extraordinary RUV as today, Battery changes yes, tires replacements of course, oil and filters every year with very special care. Strong motor with very good stability on curves and out road. Very well-build and features intrigate details. I would buy it again but hybrid. - 4.0
