Space

The car is super spacious in every aspect such as legroom, headroom and boots. You may see the picture of my legroom (I am 183 tall). She is the biggest (or one of the biggest) among all models I mentioned above.

Power

First of all, let's look at the 0-100 sprint, the official is 7.4 sec. The engine and gearbox make her drive like a big CC NA with only a minor turbo lag.  

Ride & Handling

The stability during high speed is good, much better than my dad’s E Class, due to her new chassis and stiffer suspension. She also has Conti car level such as responsive steering and solid chassis.  

Fuel Economy

My average fuel consumption (80% city drive + 20% highway) is 7.6km/l. I believe this is my problem as my left foot is super heavy, all-day sport mode and 5-6k RPM.

Comfort

For a D segment family car, her suspension setup is quite stiff. I am ok with that because the setting does provide better performance and high-speed stability right? At least the scarification of comfort worth something I like.  

Exterior

Whether she is beautiful or not is very subjective, but I am so into her looks, especially from the side or rear quarter view. I don’t like the KIA logo, so changed it to BRENTHON.  

Interior

Due to she is CBU from Korea, the built quality is very good. The material used it ok, not as good as Mazda but nothing to complain about. Also due to the designer from BMW and Audi, you may notice that the interior design is very similar to F10.
