Dynamics

RATING

The Amanti feels underdamped and has rubbery steering. Weight impairs acceleration and fuel economy.

Comfort

RATING

A large and well appointed cabin, but the underdamped suspension suffers from excessive float.

Function

RATING

Ample passenger and cargo space, with many luxury car touches.

Design/Build Quality

The bulbous exterior styling seems derivative of many different cars all at once, to ill effect.
