    Exterior

     As said, the vehicle has a good imaginative body work done. Thanks to media promoting it as, so called " Cheetah Inspired " as told to them by M & M. ORVMs with turn indicators & parking light gives added flavour. Fibre fenders gives bulky & huge looks needed for a SUV. Door handles (Cheetah Paw) can be easily seen wid modulations in moulding. Curves & waves in plastic of handles gives d cheapest look. Come to the back of it, u will c just a square frame, wid just any other back-light/indicator units fixed on sides.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     The first look inside will give u royal look. :-) but once u settle down, the tables r turned one by one. Having length equal to innova & wheel base also just equal to innova, Space seems no-where near to innova. U make 1st row comfortable, 2nd row leg room gone. U make 2nd row comfortable (with back inclined more), 3rd row space is vanished. Sit crouched in d 3rd row & c back for boot space . . . NOTHING !  

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

     Ofcourse engine basicaly is gud one, but still hav turbo lag. There r some fooling words in d air, like 5th / 6th generation engine, VGT, etc etc. nothing something special. Fuel economy can b said to b on fairer side with 10-12 in city conditions & 13-15 on highway. I was surprised by the long throws of Gears.How can a claimed SUV can hav such long throws. Gear engagement was acceptable.  

    Ride Quality & Handling

     Suspention is on d stiffer side. One tend to jump out of seat, irrespective of the seat where u r sitting. Long drives seems to be a big NO-NO in this vehicle. The drive & ride quality is surely going to put all the riders under fatigue, vry vry early.  Handling is ok, as 17" wheels do nice work. 

    Final Words

     It is a global SUV by name & certainly NOT even near to a global SUV. I think it should be compared with Force one SUV. ( I took only dimensional comparision from innova ). It looks like a heart-racer / head turner for few months...

    Areas of improvement  

     Too long to be listed here.

     

    Imaginative looks give fresh feelingCheap plastic used, Turbo lag
