It was awesome and looked nice rich interior design the lights are creative and it will be equal to Seltos and Kia Carnes Nexon and brezza this car looks stylish and functional.

Best SUV segment

Performance is very good to drive, and engine refinement is fabulous and fun to drive as well. This is one of the best SUV segment cars, and the build quality is very good 5-star safety rating, and I love it.

Best in compact suv segment

Best sized car for any means, you can get this without any waiting, riding experience is verynice you get the suv feel while driving, if we talks about looks it give suv vibes from exterior white colour is best in this car, interior is also decent even in base model you get many things, service cost is very low in comparison to other cars. Best pro is that this is the perfect size, not too big and not too small Cons: none
