Overview
The fifth generation model was unveiled at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show. It was originally planned to be unveiled at the 2018 Paris Motor Show, but it was later delayed. It is the first model to use the CMF-B HS platform, shared with the second-generation Renault Captur and Nissan Juke among others. The fifth generation features an interior that uses higher quality materials and finishes (for higher trim levels) than the previous one, sporty seats and a redesigned, more compact steering wheel.
Powertrain
The CMF-B modular platform enables improved efficiency and offers the option of a hybrid powertrain for the first time. Available from 2020, the E-Tech hybrid drivetrain combines a new generation 1.6-litre petrol engine with two electric motors, a multi-mode gearbox and a 1.2 kWh battery.

- Check the emissions equipment (particulate filter, NOx treatment) and the destination country's emissions rules; some markets restrict used diesels.
- Ask for service records: turbocharged engines are sensitive to oil changes and cool-down habits.
- Read the auction sheet grade and notes, and verify the odometer against service and inspection records. How to read an auction sheet
