I had a hatch version of that as a hire car from Hertz in Geneva at New Year. Not sure if it was a 1.8 or a 2.0 though. Had all the kit, and the interior was better than I expected quality wise. Felt solid enough. It’s quite garish though...I suspect if you like a German interior you’re unlikely to be happy with it. Not the colour...that was black, but the pattern on the seat upholstery, the dials and the clunky infotainment screen were more Citroen C3 than VW Golf. Comfortable drivers seat though, and refined on the autoroute. The ride and handling were good too...only one moment of understeer, though that was driver error in misjudging the available grip on an uphill slightly icier than expected hairpin ;) I struggled to see the economy benefits of the hybrid though...now admittedly ‘mine’ was brand new, but it only managed 400kms on a tank. Score the fuel warning light came on. Admittedly that was driving hire-car style up to Bourg St Maurice, but then the downhill on the way back should have balanced that out...?
