Funky looks and desirable image. Faithful to original. Easy to drive in town. Suspension improved from 2010.
Compact and practical. Enjoyable and easy to drive. Narrow size makes it easy to park. Good space for those in the back.
New Panda has a softer shape and less boxy look. 1.2-litre or TwinAir engines. More upmarket interior. Good headroom. Softer suspension than previous Panda.
