Vauxhall Agila Car Review Summary





Vauxhall Agila
The Vauxhall Agila is very similar to the Suzuki Wagon R with a few exceptions. The Agila comes with a 1.0-litre and a 1.2-litre engine. The Agila is a good urban runabout.
The Agila is designed more for in-town driving and can get uncomfortable on the motorway. The five-seater offers good visibility and easy handling. The Agila is easy to drive and practically sized.
The Vauxhall Agila comfortably seats five with good head and legroom all-round. The car’s boot is a decent size and holds even larger items. The car comes with many optional extras that will be tempting.
The Vauxhall Agila 1.2 16v unit is the best choice of engines, but it needs to be worked hard to be at its best. The Agila’s boxy shape can cause it to struggle in high winds or in bad weather.
The Agila is ideal for city driving thanks to its light steering and tight turning circle. The car’s size and seating for five make it a practical and versatile choice. Families will enjoy the easy access that the Agila provides and the excellent cabin space. The boot’s large size also adds an element of practicality to the Agila.
Practicality

The Agila is an affordable car to own and run. The car offers good fuel economy and good value for the money. The car’s insurance and servicing costs should be low as well.
The Vauxhall Agila delivers excellent cabin space. Passengers have plenty of head and legroom all-round. The boot is a practical size and can easily accommodate family sized items.
The Vauxhall Agila switchgear is attractively designed. The controls are large and easy to use. Everything is logically located and does what you would expect it to do. Displays are large and easy to read.
The Agila delivers adequate levels of comfort while in town. Driving on the motorway significantly reduces comfort levels. The Agila is out of its element when it’s not cruising down city streets.
The Vauxhall Agila provides excellent accessibility. Families will love how easy it is to gain access to the car’s seats. The doors open widely and once inside it isn’t difficult to settle into the car’s seats. Egress is straightforward as well.
The Agila is an easy car to park thanks to the car’s light steering and tight turning circle. The car provides good visibility and side mirrors are large and help with reverse parking.

Life Style

The Agila was not designed for performance. The car’s engine provides adequate power for city motoring. The car handles well and is easy to drive. The car’s ride is smooth as long as it’s kept on city streets and not on rough terrain.
This is an excellent family vehicle. It’s affordably priced and provides adequate seating for five passengers. The car’s boot is a good size and can swallow most family sized items. The car also offers a good deal of safety kit as well.
This is not a good first car. It is too large and will be difficult to drive in adverse weather conditions. The car is easy enough to drive otherwise but lacks the styling that most first time buyers usually find appealing.
The Vauxhall brand is improving their standard of quality. It is quickly gaining popularity in the mainstream. The improvement in the quality of the material used in the Agila is evident. Vauxhall is generally seen as a producer of practical but not flashy cars.

Security and Safety

The Vauxhall Agila standard security features include an engine immobiliser. Deadlocks and remote central locking do not come as standard, but are offered on higher spec models.
The Agila safety features include the driver’s side airbag. You have to pay extra for the passenger side airbag. The Agila doesn’t come with a high level of safety kit but the car’s boxy shape should help to keep passengers safe in the event of a crash.
The Finishing Touches

The Vauxhall Agila standard audio unit provides good sound quality and helps to drown out road and engine noise.
The Agila comes with two option packs: Comfort which includes electric front windows and central locking with deadlocks; and the Styling pack which includes six-spoke alloy wheels and fog lamps.
