Inside the SUV, there is a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment unit with smartphone connectivity and a 12-inch digital driver’s display. Additionally, the car is equipped with advanced features such as ADAS, lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, cross-traffic alerts, rear collision warning, and more.
