    Exterior 4/5 : Exterior is superb. Looks are wild cat like. Can introduce better colour combinations, as options are very limited apart from white and black.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) 1/5 :Very unhappy. Very outdated dashboard design & interiors, extremely poor legspace. Legspace is blocked by clumsy horizontal bars under the seats, so cannot stretch legs under seats either for either middle row or back for the 8 seater I have. Plus a huge AC block on the floor leaves no space even in the middle. Seats have oversized thigh length(length from backrest to front) which further restrict leg movement. Feet become sore after long journeys. Seat is wide enough to easily seat 3 people but no headrest in the middle ! How can a person sit in middle on long journeys ? No compartment even for tool kit, No roof AC, no blower speed control on floor AC. Front seats lack lumbar/lower back support so gives a back pain. Last row seat cannot be folded and hung on the sides. The rubber lining of the opening in the body for handbrake is crude.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 3.5/5. Good pickup and performance.

    Ride Quality & Handling 3/5. The announcements of door ajar, hand brake and fuel are very helpful. On rough roads, sometimes the shocks bounce back so hard that you could get thrown up from your seats.

    Final Words Powerful beast at good price. Everything is very good except interiors.

    Areas of improvement Interior design, legspace, comfort, innovative space management, roof AC etc.
