Test drove one a few months ago.
Felt like it had no suspension and the rest of the car felt "built down to a price" as well. Rock hard ride and a lot or road noise from the tyres.
Cheap plastic interior and "tinny" feeling to just about every thing inside.
Dull and unresponsive controls. The brakes and steering felt like they were not connected to the rest of the car.
Basic and fairly plain instruments but clear and easily read.
Heater / vents / air conditioner are good but then so they are in most cars these days.
Seats are about as comfortable as a concrete block.

I think Mitsubishi should go with the standard petrol version which claims a CD of 0.24 instead.

Totally quiet and reasonably agile through traffic. A bit unerving for some pedestrians though who seemed to be totally unaware of the car until they were about to walk into it!

Would not even think about buying one no matter how economical it is.

Peter.
