Luxurious Comfort and Convenience:
The SUV prioritizes passenger comfort with power-adjustable front seats and a 12.1-inch entertainment screen for rear passengers. Additional features like electronic parking brake, powered tailgate, 360-degree camera, and air purifier elevate the driving experience.
Market Speculations for India:
