Sentiment score68/100Not disclosed
SummaryReviewers and owners praise the rugged Defender-like design, spacious cabin, long EREV range and good value against pricier rivals. They criticise inconsistent build quality, occasional electrical glitches, weak air-conditioning in extreme heat, cabin noise at speed and a tight third row. Long-term reliability and resale are unproven.Not disclosed
