Consumers who purchased the Japanese brand’s compact SUV have reported growing dissatisfaction with the performance of the vehicle’s electronic components. Complaints mainly focus on the instability of the entertainment system and the constant appearance of alerts on the instrument panel, situations that make daily use difficult and force drivers to make frequent visits to dealerships for repairs that are not always definitive.
Reports indicate that, even in units with little use, the connectivity system presents pairing difficulties and sudden crashes. Além In addition, significant cases of sporadic activation of the electronic injection light have been recorded, a problem that persists even after technical interventions carried out by the authorized network, generating uncertainty regarding the mechanical reliability of the model.
Technical specifications and market context
The model, which has been with the new generation since the beginning of 2025, maintains the mechanical set already known to Brazilians. Sob the hood, the sports utility vehicle is equipped with a 1.6 aspirated flex engine, capable of delivering up to 113 horsepower, coupled to a CVT automatic transmission that simulates six gears. Essa configuration is aimed at urban efficiency, benefiting from the vehicle’s reduced weight, which is around 1,100 kg.
In terms of dimensions, the car is 4.30 meters long and offers a 432-liter trunk, a volume greater than the average for the compact SUV segment. The interior space was designed to accommodate four adults in comfort, although the fuel tank of just 41 liters is seen as a limiting factor for autonomy on long trips. The current version received the nomenclature
Instability in onboard connectivity
The multimedia center, an essential item for modern convenience, has become the target of criticism from several drivers. Usuários report that the equipment randomly stops recognizing connections via USB or Bluetooth, in addition to displaying screen freezes that prevent the use of browsers and audio streaming services.
A typical case occurred in Salvador, where a customer needed to activate the warranty a few days after removing the brand new vehicle from the dealership, still in September 2025. The solution, however, was not immediate, as the arrival of the replacement part took weeks, causing disruptions in the use of the asset. Outros drivers describe the need for complete hardware replacement after successive software updates fail to correct the failures.
Mechanical alerts and recurrence of failures
In addition to entertainment, the reliability of engine sensors has been questioned. The electronic injection light, which signals anomalies in the power supply or exhaust system, lights up on the dashboard of several vehicles without an apparent serious mechanical failure, but requiring professional verification. Em Lorena, in the interior of São Paulo, an owner reported having visited the authorized workshop three times in a single month.
The diagnosis via scanner showed problems in the canister, the component responsible for filtering fuel vapors, but the cleaning carried out by the technicians only temporarily resolved the issue. The warning resurfaced weeks later, raising doubts about the durability of the components and the accuracy of the diagnoses carried out. Alguns owners also note that urban consumption is higher than expected for the category.
Current pricing and version scenario
The SUV range is still available on the automaker’s official website, divided into three main configurations that suit different budget profiles. The entry-level version, called Active Plus, has a suggested price of R$117,990, focusing on cost-benefit. Já the intermediate option Sense is sold for R$ 131,590, adding comfort items.
The top-of-the-line variant, Advance Plus, costs R$150,190 and offers the most complete equipment package. The model is preparing to gradually leave the line with the arrival of the successor Kait, which will occupy the entry-level range of the brand’s utility vehicles with similar dimensions and a renewed design. The manufacturer maintains the position of monitoring cases individually through its network, reinforcing the need for strict compliance with the review plan to maintain the warranty.
