The cabin feels roomy and quiet with extra rear legroom from the longer wheelbase, a flatter floor, and slim front seatbacks. Front seats use longer cushions, denser padding, and reshaped bolsters with lumbar support for better long-drive comfort. Acoustic glass windshield plus added insulation cuts road and wind noise.
