    Exterior Strong build quality with imposing stature, spare wheel to boot door looks stylish,no provision to add extra fog lamps, the overall shape is strange carries mixed reviews, should compulsorily have mud flaps on all four wheels.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Air suspension fantastic,four motion lends an extra dimension, seat and sterring controls make  settling in very cozy, however the initialisation process for starting troublesome, for such a large vehicle space is premium for passengers, cavernous boot space though, in cabin entertainment system inflexible, beige interiors wether poorly over time.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very smooth and responsive engine, excellent pick up, slick dsg gear box, fuel economy could be better.

    Ride Quality & Handling Exellent handling even in city traffic, feels a bit bumpy over badly broken asphalt,have driven up a hill at 45 degrees- never for a second felt  insecure, was stuck in a mudpool three feet deep centre differential lock with low low gear shift saved the day.

    Final Words Understated looks, intimidating pose, go anywhere freedom coupled to sportscar performance.

    Areas of improvement Passenger space, fuel economy, high maintenance,dual exhaust would have given a more sporty look.

    blend of on-road performance with off road ruggednesshigh maintenance,overpriced,high cost of spares,
