Martin...it isn’t. I specifically didn’t want the mild hybrid. And yes, I researched and compared. A LOT. It’s the bog standard 1.4 with 139 horse....slightly up on the ( very) mild hybrid, don’t know the torque figures for comparison.
Probably weighs a little less too, but in my Luddite view there’s less to go wrong. I also didn’t need ALLGRIP...again more weight, more maintenance costs over time, more expensive to buy, and fuel, and in time ( if it’s a keeper) I’ll fit all season tyres like my Michelin Cross Climates I put on an older diesel Focus I bought a few years again.
Another car I bought unseen.
