Most Helpful Review

Good

Pros Good off-road capabilities Unique design Cons Not comfy for daily driving Limited service network Overall 3/5 Great for those who need a capable off-reader and don’t care about the features.

A good all rounder SUV

A good SUV that gives the driver all the possible comfort to travel night and day without any tiredness. Strong engine and gear box. Powerful and excellent value for money. All wheel drive is a blessing and it could be used for moderate off roading as well.
