The interior adopts a simple and grand layout with a clear hierarchical center console. Most areas within reach are decorated with soft materials and exquisite trim, paired with a sporty three-dial instrument panel and a 10.25-inch floating central control screen, which not only ensures the luxurious texture of the cockpit but also balances practicality and convenience. The 2700mm wheelbase provides ample riding space, and the rear seats support split-folding. Paired with a neat luggage compartment layout, it can easily accommodate large items, adapting to multi-scenario loading needs such as daily shopping and short-distance camping.

2.3 Intelligent Safety Configurations for All-Round Travel Protection

Equipped with the i-ACTIVSENSE intelligent safety system, it reaches L2-level assisted driving capability. Relying on the coordinated work of precision cameras and millimeter-wave radars, it real-time detects road conditions, vehicles and pedestrians around the vehicle, building a comprehensive active safety protection system. The system integrates a variety of practical safety functions. Among them, the MRCC full-speed adaptive cruise control system can achieve full-speed range following, relieving driving fatigue in long-distance and congested road conditions; the BSM blind spot monitoring system and RCTA reverse warning system can timely remind of oncoming vehicles from the side and rear, avoiding potential risks during lane changes and reversing; the FOW forward collision warning system and SBS brake assist system can identify collision hazards in advance and take active intervention to brake, minimizing collision damage; the AHB automatic high-beam adjustment system can automatically switch between high and low beams according to oncoming vehicles and pedestrians, improving night driving safety; in addition, it is also equipped with LDWS lane departure warning system, LAS lane keeping assist system, etc., to fully protect travel safety. For passive safety, it is equipped with driver and passenger front airbags, front side airbags, knee airbags and front/rear head air curtains. Combined with the Skyactiv high-rigidity body structure, key parts are made of ultra-high-strength steel up to 1800MPa, effectively absorbing and dispersing collision energy, building an all-dimensional safety protection barrier for passengers.

2.4 Intelligent and Comfortable Cockpit Adapting to Daily Travel Needs

The interior design balances comfort and practicality, adopting an ergonomic seat design with excellent wrapping and support, which can effectively relieve long-distance driving fatigue; equipped with a high-quality touch leather multi-function steering wheel with a delicate feel, integrated with cruise control, voice wake-up and other buttons for easy blind operation.
