While not pulling in the plaudits or the sales that it did in its heyday the Combo still has enough in its repertoire to remain competitive. Having received the latest in multi-jet engine technology a couple of years ago, its 1.3and 1.7-litre engines—giving out 70 and 100hp —are a couple of refined numbers that spin enthusiastically to the redline. and have helped it stay with the newer kids on the block.
Payload is between 530kg and 785kg while load volume is 2.4m3, not the best for the class, though with the optional Flexcargo system this can be expanded — basically the passenger seat folds flat. You also get a decent interior that's easy to navigate and comfortable seats.
As a driving machine the Combo still produces, but excessive road roar from the rear interferes with cabin refinement. However, at a GVW of 1,995kg maximum, it's lighter than some.
