About this vehicle
The Porte is built around one clever idea: a single very wide sliding door on the passenger side, with no pillar in the way. Getting in and out is easier than in any conventional car, which makes a real difference for older passengers, anyone with limited mobility, and parents loading a child.
Underneath it is a small, tall, automatic city car — light on fuel, easy to park, and comfortable in traffic.
A practical, unglamorous choice that suits town use and short hires better than its looks suggest.
Best for
- Easy access for passengers
- City and town use
- Short hires and errands
- Older or less mobile passengers
