The SUV offers 16-inch dark metallic diamond-cut alloy wheels that give a more appealing look.

New Improved Interiors

Talking about its interiors, the car has been thoroughly upgraded with a dual-tone cabin theme available in Mocha Brown and Lunar Grey, along with premium leather upholstery. The notable highlight is the 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system supporting Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, alongside a rearview camera for easier parking. Other prominent features include mesh-design seating for better airflow, steering-mounted audio controls, a USB-C charging port, and cruise control, making it a comfortable ride for all seven occupants.
