Multimedia and safety technology: 9/10

The tech transforms every drive — smart safety systems, cameras, adaptive cruise and driver assists make touring effortless, while remaining easy to customise and disable.

Practicality: 8/10

Love the interior, so plush and comfortable. The plastic tub liner could be thicker and more substantial.

Driving: 9/10

Best car I've ever driven. It’s like it’s on train tracks. Power is smooth and plentiful.

Running costs: 7/10

It’s a ute so the rego and insurance are higher. Fuel use is as good as you want it to be.

Reliability: 10/10

Has not missed a beat. I’m getting oil done every 10,000km as all diesels need that extra care.
