Pros & cons
Ford Capri Laser
- Quick 0–100 km/h in 6.5 s adds real punch for city merges and overtakes
- Combined 7.5 L/100km is efficient for its class and keeps running costs predictable
- Usable practicality with four seats and a 330 L trunk for errands and short trips
- At a price of 25,000, it offers good value in its segment
- Four seats and a 330 L trunk may be tight for family duties
- 150 hp and 200 km/h top speed won’t satisfy drivers chasing high-performance numbers

- If ultra-low fuel use is the priority, a hybrid or EV will do better than 7.5 L/100km

- Strong safety standing in its class per rankings
