This car does look cool in black.
Interiors/dash board
The dash board makes up for lack of leg space and other minor niggles in the interior as i see it. Dollops of chrome surround every gauge and knob. There's every kinda geegaw from tripmeter, cruise control, distance to efficiency(dte), multi-information display, tachometer, speed/temp gauges and parking sensors, which is a big plus for making parallel parking a less gut wrenching experience. There is no ignition key in this car(keyless entry). You get a small plastic box like a fob and as long as you carry it with you, will automatically unlock the doors as you walk towards the car(1 meter distance). Walk away and it will automatically lock the doors. You press a 'Start" button on the left of the dash to power the engine.
Interior seating is a little tight for really tall drivers but adequate for others upfront. In the rear is a different story.Ingest a tub of biriyani with brinjal curry and you will be hard pressed when trying to exit. I blame the seats more than space.The car does have adequately high ground clearance and one feels quite high up while on the road though it does look like a low slung car in stance.
The factory fitted 6-cd/mp3 changer is really good and unless one's a sound freak, there's no need to replace it.All controls are easy to locate and operate. The sound system is speed/noise sensitive and automatically adjusts itself accordingly.
The LTZ model is equipped with a factory fitted electronically operated sunroof.The test car has one. If you look closely you can make it out.Also, there is better sunproofing in this car than many other new models i have seen here recently. The glare is much less.Add, airbags, ABS/ABD, steering mounted audio controls, electonically adjustable/foldable mirrors and leather seating to the never ending list of features in this car, including emergency exits!
I'll give the interior ergonomics an 8/10
