Design and styling:
It’s likely that the new SUV will undergo substantial design alterations with similarities to the newly launched Creta.

A more luxurious cabin with plush upholstery, a revised dashboard panel with a heads-up display, and a newly created digital instrument cluster are what we might anticipate.
