Blind spot monitoring with closing vehicle sensing, reverse traffic detection and lane departure alerts are optional packs. Adaptive cruise with collision mitigation braking is also optional.
With all seven seats in place the loadspace holds about 280 litres, enough for a few bags. Fold the third row for around 1190 litres behind the second row. Drop both rear rows flat for up to 2558 litres of space with a flat floor and split tailgate for easy loading of bulky items.
Braked towing capacity is 3500 kg across the range with trailer stability assist standard. Unbraked limit is 750 kg. Nose weight maxes at 150 kg. Payload sits around 670 kg including driver.
Air suspension is standard for adjustable ride height and off-road use. The vehicle suits heavy towing of caravans or trailers and general load hauling with its high capacity and four-wheel drive.
The cabin delivers a high seating position with strong outward views through large glass areas. Stadium seating supports up to seven full-size adults with good leg and head room across rows. Leather seats offer multi-way power adjustment and side bolsters for support on long trips. An Alpine glass roof brings in light while heated options warm front and rear seats plus the steering wheel on higher grades. Dual-zone climate control keeps temperatures steady for driver and passengers.
3.0-litre diesel or supercharged petrol engines with 8-speed automatic
Service every 12 months or 16,000 miles
Standard ABS, traction control, dynamic stability control and roll stability control
Multiple airbags including front, side and curtain coverage
Hill descent control and hill start assist standard
Fuel options centre on the 3.0-litre TDV6 or SDV6 diesels and a 3.0-litre supercharged petrol V6. The diesels pair with stop-start technology for better economy on longer runs. Real-world use returns around 30 mpg combined on diesel models. The large tank supports extended range between fills.
Servicing follows a 12-month or 16,000-mile schedule, whichever comes first. Main services alternate between A and B types with oil, filter and brake fluid checks. Independent specialists can handle routine work at lower cost than dealers. Air suspension components need regular inspection to maintain ride quality.
Safety kit includes four-wheel ABS, electronic brake-force distribution, emergency brake assist, traction control and dynamic stability control with roll mitigation. Front side airbags and full-length curtain airbags cover all rows when seven seats are fitted. Hill descent control and trailer stability assist come standard. Optional systems add blind-spot monitoring and surround cameras.
Keeping the car involves attention to the air suspension and electronic systems. A full service history helps reliability on these complex vehicles. The split tailgate and high load floor suit practical daily use and towing up to heavy loads. Regular checks on differentials and Terrain Response keep off-road ability intact.
