A lot of black inside, but two-tone seats are hip. Sporty steering wheel, sporty dials, and a mid-size screen in the center console.

Power comes from a 1.5 liter four-cylinder petrol engine with 102hp and 141nm, mated to a 5-speed manual or a CVT, sending horses to the front wheels.  The engine is manufactured by the Mianyang Power Machinery Corporation which has close ties to Weichai Power. The engine was originally designed by Mitsubishi.

Skid pads up front and at the back are standard, for the off-road feeling. Note fake side window.
