This SUV was gifted to me by my dad when I stood 1st in India in my CA finals exams. I was so very much surprised to get this SUV as I never expected to get such gift.

This 5 door, 8 seater has excellent safety features to prevent injury to occupants in case of an accident or collision. The body is optimally designed for crash safety. It has front and rear crumple zones that have the capacity to absorb impact energy upon impact which makes it an ideal car for speedy driving.

Further its striking features are permanent four-wheel drive and dual zone air conditioning.

When I took this car to show it to my friends, I couldn’t stop boasting in its glory and I was feeling like on the top of the sky.
