What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the Q2 drives tidily and has a solid, user-friendly interior with physical controls that many prefer to newer screen-heavy cabins. The common criticisms are its age and dated tech, a firm ride, especially on larger wheels, high prices with the best features optional, and less rear space and boot room than rivals such as the Skoda Kamiq.
