        The 9-inch infotainment system is easy to operate and lag-free. The quality of the speakers is the best. Sound is clear with a power boost. It has USB and AUX connection options, which is useful for uninterrupted music enjoyment for me and my family during long drives. For the safety of young children, it also features ISOFIX child seat anchor points.
