The interior uses a lot of soft plastics wood tones, and more upscale materials than previous models. The instrument cluster is pleasingly arranged and uses a subdued orange lighting instead of the bright blue, black, or white more commonly found in SUV's. The controls are easy to use and there are plenty of storage bins and compartments.
A long list of standard equipment was listed on the Spec Sheet as "comfort and convenience" items. These included an eight-way powered driver's seat and a four-way powered passenger seat. Front and rear seats were heated and all upholstery was leather. A rearview backup camera was standard and I am definitely a big supporter of the backup camera for all vehicles. I like the powered tilt and telescoping steering wheel and rain-sensing windshield wipers.
