About this vehicle

More space and confidence for the journey.

Our intermediate SUVs offer a comfortable step up in space for business travel, family trips and longer journeys. With a higher driving position, AWD capability and room for passengers and luggage, they are well suited to travel around town and further afield.

With seating for five people, space for four large suitcases and unlimited kilometres included, there is room to travel comfortably without watching the odometer. It is a practical all-rounder when you need more space than a compact car without moving into a full-size SUV.
