Seven seats and a 655 L trunk support large families and cargo-heavy routines.

Safety is a highlighted strength in its segment positioning.
Not aimed at budget-focused buyers given its price point.
Less suited to dense city driving and tight parking.
Electric road trips still require planning around charging stops.
Three-row capacity may be overkill if you rarely carry more than two to five passengers.
