What’s it like to drive? 

Reviewer's opinion

The S-Presso's high suspension travel and 81 cm of ground clearance made easy meat of this scenic route which was incorporated to illustrate the S-Presso's penchant for unruly surfaces. Interior noise insulation could be better, as the vegetation brushing against the little car's underside makes an unsettling sound, but considering how much the S-Presso costs, it's no deal-breaker.
