In terms of detailed design, the three-panel flat-bottom steering wheel with the front 7-inch LCD instrument takes into account the creation of a sense of movement and technology, and the 12.3-inch LCD touch screen located in the middle of the interior adopts a suspension design, which enhances the technology and texture of the interior, and the practical functions such as satellite navigation, car machine network and intelligent voice control are equipped, which also guarantees the car experience of an MPV model.
