        Pure value for money. It is the best 7-seater car available in the market under 10 lakhs. The newer versions offer more features and further improve their value. It also has a good resale value.

        It is well-visible from the road. Thanks to thoughtful design elements like available dual-tone paint or contrasting highlights across the vehicle, it feels and looks luxury from the first. The central console appears extremely opulent and provides the impression of being a large automobile. The interior design is upmarket. Dashboard has a rigid, athletic vibe.

        It has a lot of body cladding throughout and big 15-inch wheels that give it a small SUV appearance. Additionally, it distinguishes itself from the crowd because of its styling. Dynamic look is created by sweeping arcs and sharp edges. The front fascia of the car is dominated by a bold grille and fashionable headlights, which give it an assured and commanding appearance.

        It boasts a captivating and distinctive exterior, setting it apart within the segment. Split headlamp design, featuring LED daytime running lamps integrated into the bumper, exudes confidence. Chrome-graced grille and skid plates contribute to its SUV appeal. On the side, flared wheel arches, side cladding, and 17-inch alloy wheels establish robust stance.
