Described by the company as a `Multi-Usage Mini Wagon`, the Kenari comes in three versions – the EX, GX and the EZ, with both the EX and GX models offering 5-speed manual transmission while the EZ is available only as a 4-speed automatic.

Making its debut at the Birmingham Motor Show in October, the Kenari will be offered at around £6,800 for UK customers.
