Looks nice. If its light, should be a cracker.

Probably won't fall apart as you drive away from the stealership like some small hatches either.

Can you imagine what you could waste with a 200bhp version?

Think we have a few of them running around here. Think the standard performance is more like a warm hatch. Fairly thin torque from what I read in the magazines. Would be damn reliable though.

My mistake, think the reviews I read were for the standard specs ones. The Ralliart version has higher specs. Both 1.5L engines though. Snipped from a press release.

"Apart from Ralliart, all Colt Plus models are powered by a new 4A91-type 1.5-liter MIVEC aluminum cylinder block engine that generates 77kW (105PS)/6000rpm and 141N-m (14.4kg-m)/4000rpm (2WD models) and is manufactured at MDC Power GmbH in Germany. The Ralliart model uses a new 4G15-type 1.5-liter MIVEC intercooler-turbocharger unit that generates 108kW (147PS)/6000 rpm and 180N-m (18.3kg-m)/2500rpm. Mated to the INVECS-III CVT, the engines return mileage of 18.2 km/l (2WD, 4A91 models) and 15.6 km/l (4G15 turbo model) respectively in Japan's 10-15 mode driving cycle."
