WITH the LaVita, Hyundai has abandoned the small station wagon in favour of the mini MPV - a Euro-focussed five-door designed to meet the varying needs of the modern motorist. Hence clever seating arrangements in the five-seat LaVita, abundant storage solutions and plenty of style. Dynamic deficiencies are never far from the surface and important safety features are either optional or not included. But with such an appealing price and equipment level, LaVita is sure to do well.
