A mid-size 5-seater SUV, the vehicle carries quite a premium appeal and scores big in the design department. It has the right proportions and is built to look agile and sharp.

With that, the ground clearance has also been increased from 177mm to 205mm which is more than ideal for Indian driving conditions.
