The interior looks great for
the segment, but it is possibly a tad too gray. This car too is aimed at young
car buyers, and they do like a bit more color. The touch screen is large and
the infotainment system comes with comes with full smartphone integration, USB
and HDMI connectivity, satellite navigation, a wifi hot spot, and permanent 4G
internet.
The lights are red, the
lights are large, and the lights are connected by a shiny strip. Just like
almost all the new compact SUV’s from local Chinese automakers.
