Damping and roll stiffness are on the soft side -- especially compared to the Mazda 3. These difficiencies are most apparent in our instrumented handling tests

Handling Comment:
Superb control feedback for this class -- on par with far more expensive performance cars. Better balanced than many performance cars. Instant turn-in response and intuitive feedback. Skid pad testing revealed superb off-throttle rotation which was easy to predict and control.
