What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the 600 is easy to drive, well equipped and economical as a hybrid, but more interesting to look at than to drive. The common criticisms are cramped rear seats, cheap-feeling interior plastics and a hybrid system that isn't always smooth; the ride divides opinion, with Auto Express impressed and Parkers finding it fussy.
