Built by Tofaş in Bursa from 2015 to 2026, it was Turkey's best-selling car for many years. Production ended on 30 June 2026; it can now only be bought second-hand. It stands out for its roomy interior (520 L boot) and cheap, easy-to-find spare parts. Sound insulation and material quality are below the class average; when buying used, check the DPF/EGR history and the DCT (1.6 Multijet) service records.
Buying risk: Medium
1 serious and 1 moderate fault(s) on record. The first shows up from about 60,000 km. Have them checked in an inspection. Inspection checklist
Strengths
- Low fuel use: 4.7 L per 100 km.
- Roomy boot: 520 L.
- Long service interval: every 20,000 km.
Things to watch
- 3 stars in the crash test (2016); check the safety equipment.
- 1 serious issue(s) on record; have them checked in an inspection before buying.
Who is it for?
- People who drive a lot and want low fuel costs
- Families and people who travel with a full load
- sec 0-100 0-100 km/h acceleration The time it takes to reach 100 km/h from a standstill. Over 12 seconds is considered relaxed, 8-10 seconds lively, and under 6 seconds very fast. 9.8
- L/100 km 4.7
- Drivetrain Drivetrain Which wheels receive the engine power. Front-wheel drive: economical and easy on slippery surfaces. Rear-wheel drive: sportier, but harder in snow. All-wheel drive (AWD): the best grip in all conditions, with slightly higher consumption. Front-wheel drive
- Transmission Dual-clutch transmission (DCT / DSG / EDC) An automatic gearbox with two separate clutches. Gear changes are very fast and efficient. "Dry" types tend to overheat and shudder in heavy stop-and-go traffic. Dual-clutch automatic (DCT/DSG)

- Engine family
- Multijet II
- Layout
- Inline 4-cylinder, 16-valve, DOHC
- Engine displacement Engine displacement (cc) The total volume of the cylinders. 1.0 = about 1000 cc. Thanks to turbos, small engines can now be as powerful as large ones. In many countries, taxes are calculated based on engine displacement.
- 1,598 cc
- Number of cylinders Number of cylinders 3-cylinder engines are economical but vibrate a little more at idle. 4 cylinders are balanced; 6 cylinders are very smooth and powerful.
- 4
- Turbo Turbo A propeller spun by exhaust gas forces more air into the engine, so a small engine becomes more powerful. In turbo engines, good-quality oil and timely maintenance matter even more.
- Turbo
- Fuel system
- Common-rail direct injection
- Timing drive Timing belt or chain? It keeps the engine's internal parts turning in sync. A belt must be replaced at set intervals (usually every 90-120 thousand km); if it snaps, the engine is seriously damaged. A chain usually lasts the life of the engine, but a rattling noise should be checked.
- Timing belt
- Power Engine power (horsepower / PS) Determines how quickly the car can accelerate and its top speed. For city driving, 90-130 hp is enough; if you overtake often on the highway, anything above 150 hp feels comfortable.
- 130 hp @ 3750 rpm
- Torque Torque (Nm) The engine's "pulling force". High torque feels strong at low revs: the car does not struggle on hills, when loaded, or when setting off. You can think of power as how fast you can go, and torque as how easily the car accelerates.
- 320 Nm @ 1500 rpm
Raised from 120 HP to 130 HP with the 2021 facelift. Equipped with DPF and EGR. Engine code may vary by model year.

- Tutela Transmission DCT Gear · 1.9 L · Change at 60,000 km
Automatic gearbox with a dry dual clutch. It is a manual gearbox with two clutches and an electro-hydraulic actuator added.
Waiting for a long time on a half-engaged clutch in traffic (holding the car on a slope with the gas pedal) shortens the clutch's life.

- 2.4 / 2.3 bar
- Front brakes Disc / drum brakes Disc brakes are stronger and resist heat better. Drum brakes are usually used at the rear of small cars; they are cheap and long-lasting.

- Rear brakes Disc / drum brakes Disc brakes are stronger and resist heat better. Drum brakes are usually used at the rear of small cars; they are cheap and long-lasting.
- Disc (251 mm)
- Front suspension MacPherson suspension The most common front suspension type. Simple, light and cheap; it provides enough comfort for most cars.

Maintenance

- Engine oil Engine oil A value like "0W-20" shows the oil's thickness; but what really matters is the manufacturer approval (e.g. VW 508 00). Using the wrong oil can cause expensive failures, especially in engines with turbos and particulate filters.

- Timing belt
- Coolant
- Paraflu UP
- Brake fluid Brake fluid Transfers the force from the brake pedal to the wheels. Over time it absorbs moisture and its boiling point drops, so it should be replaced every 2-3 years regardless of mileage.
- DOT 4 (Tutela Top 4) · Every 24 months
- Battery Battery types (AGM / EFB) Cars with start-stop systems need durable EFB or AGM batteries. Replacing them with a standard battery will cause it to fail quickly. On some premium brands, the car must be told about a new battery after it is replaced.
- 12V 70 Ah EFB (start-stop)
