The front comes with razor-sharp front grille, bumper, and headlights, while the side profile resembles a standard compact crossover SUV with a high center of gravity, big wheels, and a tall body. However, the 18-inch wheel design and the chrome side-impact strips on the bottom make the side profile look a bit sharp.
Other SUVs in Pakistan lack many of the features. The SUV will be imported in the start and the company is expected to switch to local assembly by June next year.
