In Europe and Japan, vehicles like the massive Ford F-150 pick-up remain a rarity, yet locals have likewise begun to appreciate the roominess and go-anywhere versatility that drove the American truck craze.The redesigned Mercedes-Benz A-Class is a good example.
He has driven 10,000 miles (16,000km) in his, and praises the car's roominess, fuel economy and general nimbleness around town.
The company is certainly right on the sums, but I can't help feeling that the torque, as much as the economy, of a diesel engine would make it an attractive choice for the Verso-S, which, because of its very roominess and practicality, is much more likely to be loaded up with people and stuff, and used on long journeys, than other small cars.
Having four grown men and their bags of kit was a nice way to put the 450h's roominess and comfort to the test.
Personally, I think the Verso-S's outright roominess outweighs the absence of more complicated features; the rear seat space and load area are both so generous, for example, that there's less need for a sliding rear seat to juggle space between them.
The Austin, which went into service over the July 4th weekend at tie Columbia Operating Co., is compared for appearance, roominess, passenger capacity, cost, durability, driving ease and passenger comfort, with N.Y.

The cars will also aim for greater fuel efficiency without sacrificing roominess.
Still, the trade-off of rear-seat roominess for widescreen vistas seemed worth it as I drove through the pine forests and over towering mountain passes - worth it for those sitting in the front seat, at least.
Ms. McCartney may not persuade her customers to wear her wide suit jackets (think Talking Heads) or savor the roominess of gold felted wool tops or a rounded tunic.
African-American car owners "are looking for versatility, and the RAV4 drives like a car, has great acceleration and roominess," she said.
