The SUV has been returning a fuel efficiency of 16 km/l. I mostly drive on the highways in the "normal" mode.

Below are my likes, dislikes & other observations.
Pros
- The 2L Diesel engine is a gem that offers ample torque & is punchy.
- The 8-speed auto is remarkably smooth & very intuitive.
- Rear seat offers ample leg room even for a passenger who is 6’2".
- Fuel efficiency - My average so far has been 16Kmpl. I mostly drive on Highways in “Normal” mode.
- Huge 540 litres boot can easily swallow four large suitcases.
- 360-degree camera display is clear and gives multiple view options.
- Panoramic sunroof makes the cabin light up well.
- Level 2 ADAS technology.
Cons
- The seats are light grey and they show stains quite easily.
- Bose audio is let down. I would just rate it 4 out of 10.
- Wireless Android Auto/Apple Car-play.
- No USB-C port.
- No fog lights & average headlight throw.
