I see 60 users before me have given their detailed opinion about the car, so I won’t elaborate it instead I will keep it short and try to highlight the points.

I like the feature, where the doors gets auto-locked when you cross 25 kmph while driving.The 5th door is also centrally locked, there is no lever under the driver’s seat to open the boot-space on the back. It has only 1 lever to open the fue
