Large and chunky black alloy wheels give the SUV a commanding presence, something which is sure attract the Indian customer's attention.

The car is likely to come equipped with an 80-kWh battery with a full-charge range of 480 km on a single charge. It can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in approximately 3 seconds and is available in both two-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions. It's also generously equipped with features, including a 17.1-inch rotating touchscreen infotainment system, digital rear-view mirror, power-operated tailgate, 3D surround sound system, heated seats both in the front and rear, 360-degree cameras, ADAS features, and driving modes named Earth, Fun, and Hyper.
