The steering when driving is very light and extremely responsive, but it takes a lot of effort in sharp turns when parking. The turning radius is incredibly small. Coupled with the relatively short wheelbase, you can get this car in and out of anywhere. The ergonomics are very well done. The heater controls are simple, and control the very ample heater.
Most controls are within easy reach of the steering wheel.
Visibility is excellent to the front and sides, but rather restricted to the rear, thanks to the thick rear pillars on either side of the engine bay, and the spoiler on the back. The only complaint I have is the switch for the fog lamps, which is buried on the upper kick panel, near your left knee. The aftermarket radio is hopelessly complex, but I am wading my way through the 75 page novel that describes how to operate it. Driving For all the available power, this car is amazingly docile and easy to drive. Excepting the large steering inputs required outside of normal driving and turning, the car drives like any recent Toyota.
