Review
Test drove the Petrol variant with my family.

Pick up was quite comparable with my current ride, moreover from a 7 seater SUV which is heavier.

Full of features that you'll only expect to see in a premium conti make.

Color LCD at the dash, makes the drive more interesting.

What I like
Great features like front sensors, ventilated seats, memory seats.

What I do not like
Full-features, almost... lack of HUD.

Review
Test drive the 2.2 Diesel model over a weekend during the breakfast with Torque. The drive and handling of the car is good, can even feels the little G-Force when you floor it all the way. This model also come with Auto Parking Assist for only parallel parking, which the driver still have to take care of the gear shift, brake. It's take longer to park then you park it manually.
Equipments wise are good, ABS with EBD is standard. So is the cruise control and manual shift gear. Rear moon roof and front sun roof also standard for the 2.2 diesel model.

What I like
I love the AWD and the torque. 2rd roll Aircon are located at behind the center glove box and 3rd roll Aircon with fan controller is at the right near the small last rear window.

What I do not like
The test drive model do not come with the body kit which the SE said they might no come with, especially if side step are installed will better help to do car wash for the high roof. Also there is no more spare tyre other than a repairs kits and pump are now come as standard.
