Corvan Strada review: roomy, frugal and a little slow off the line

A compact SUV with a big boot, 19 km/l in city traffic and a gentle engine that wants patience when overtaking.

The Strada is built for families who drive in town on weekdays and out of town on weekends. The cabin has real space for three adults in the back, and the 410-litre boot swallowed four suitcases in our test.

The 1.2-litre petrol engine is smooth but modest: 0-100 km/h takes 14.1 seconds. In the city it returned 15.4 km/l; on a steady highway run, 19.2 km/l.
